nothing

There is no standard judgment on the relationship between sex and love, and all possible answers are constantly happening.

Love in Prague is an old movie. The jumping rhythm of the picture, the pure expressions of the actors, the emotional soundtrack, the stable and changeable scenes, all of which give people a sense of familiarity but a little bit of confusion.

There are two kinds of women in this world. One can only fall in love with one person at a time in a lifetime, and the other can only fall in love with one person at a time in a lifetime. There are both types of women in the movie. One freedom, the other happiness. A free woman knows how to leave. She refuses a long-term relationship and the bondage of a relationship. Like a stubborn salmon, she goes upstream. A happy woman meets a man who is willing to protect her life. Once they meet, they will never be separated.

Sex is a hint in the movie, and joy is often just an illusion, the purpose is to hide the deeper pain. We often greet the moment of pain with grief, so people are never so happy. Because the appearance of happiness is only a foreshadowing of long-term pain, which is the premise of finding happiness.

We will eventually understand: the beauty we wait for is nothing but nothing.
