Sliding Doors

Sliding Doors

A piece of British sketch style, cold and simple. Helen's encounter can be encountered by everyone, men ignore it, and women sympathize. A light comedy that reflects the philosophy of fate, chance, and missed may be a bit profound, but it is worth comparing the two male protagonists in the play. James is handsome, funny, and affectionate, and another useless and non-specific boyfriend is naturally spurned by the audience. The audience understands that this should be the most popular choice, but they can't help but take a deep breath when they delve into its fate and fortune. If we in life don't catch up with our Sliding door, isn't what we see real? And how long will we be deceived by illusions? If that door is the turning point in our life, everything will be good if we catch up, and life will be dark if we miss it. Can it be done again? Like Helen. The result is of course not possible, and time is never greedy or caring. People have to sigh the mystery of chance and the impermanence of fate. Maybe each of us has a predetermined destiny, when to meet someone, which Sliding door opens to us, and which one closes to us. Maybe life doesn't have to take so many detours. Fatalism makes people lazy and ignores subjectivity. The reality is far less simple than the movie, Helen just has to glide quietly according to the script as written (albeit two), there are not many options for her, she is more relaxed than us. In reality, whether or not the outcome is a given, the process is still up to us to decide. Stay awake in the process, keep yourself, and there will be no regrets at the end.
Downright montage constitutes the soul of the film. Everyone will encounter their own Sliding doors, it is not lucky to open it, and it is not necessarily unfortunate to miss it. Maybe it's just a circle on the road of life, Helen, who was missed by the Sliding door, also met in the elevator what she should have met. So do we.
The ending song is very nice, Thank You by Dido. Thanks for the insight and joy the movie brings.

    I really don't understand that the translation of this double-sided lover has something to do with the movie. Hong Kong and Taiwan’s literal translations of movies based on associations have always been flattering. In contrast, they still prefer the literal translation method of the mainland, which is very good. The movie says that if you lose your horse, you know it's not a blessing, don't be proud, don't be frustrated, living in the moment and cherishing your eyes is the kingly way!

    It was unique at the time. Meet Gwyneth Paltrow for the first time.
