This loneliness comes from the movie

time flies.
We are like sitting on a supersonic train, as long as the train stops, we can go out and see time for what it is.
It's an unimaginable world, like a dog can't see color, but it's as real as the chair you're sitting on.
If we can see the trajectory of time, maybe we can see the whole picture of the world.




This movie, like many vulgar movies, describes a relationship between two men and women from different centuries. I am not very impressed with Meg Ryan, she is not beautiful, she is too bland, as light as a glass of mineral water, but reminds me of those heroines in Iwai movies, real and close, with the charm exuding in essence seems to go further.

This movie is certainly not as classic as 70 years back in time, but it is also beautiful and yearning.

The male protagonist is from the 19th century, and the female protagonist is an office worker living in the modern city of New York. The interlacing of the two is bound to bring some little fun.

Romance is always an indispensable theme of love. Without romance, love is like an obscure mathematical history that is hard to digest.

To fall in love with you across time and space, the movie always pulls away from the dullness of the real world, and adds imaginative condiments to bring people into a new and perfect situation.

The meaning of the film lies in the world we can't touch, maybe this world is like a dialogue that begins. If we can be what we can be, then life will be a different situation.

Reality and illusion, intertwined and detoured.

Floating, the crowded world, can never replace the inner loneliness.

This loneliness comes from the movie.

There is no trace of anything lost.

If you want to hide, go on a trip and walk into the crowd.

Enter that beautiful and unreal paradise with the movie.

Where the heart is, there is heaven.

    Stuart: No, you're not.

    Kate: Yes, I am.

    Stuart: No, you're not.

    [Kate sits down in chair with a thud]

    Kate: Okay.

    Stuart: I found it.

    Kate: What did you find?

    Kate: You found the portal?

    Stuart: A portal into April 28th, 1876. I jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge and took a walk in 1876 today. I followed the Duke of Albany around old New York. Are you listening?

    Kate: Avidly.

    Stuart: This here's the twist, Kate. Here's the kicker.

    Kate: What's the kicker?

    Stuart: [whispering] He followed me home.

  • Kate: Why are you standing?
