After watching this film, I can't help thinking: This work is a torture of the conscience of journalists.

Thirty years ago, there was a shooting at Grand Central Station in New York. The detective and the infatuated woman premeditatedly elope to a certain place, but the infatuated man who came to stop it. There was a shootout between the two sides, and in the end all three died, and the infatuated man was identified as a murderer and reported.

After the death of the three, they were all reincarnated into this life.

In this life, the male protagonist encounters the silly black sweet female lead. He goes to the third base at a very fast speed, and starts to awaken his memory while throwing dog food. He recalls his past life at the Central Railway Station, and also thinks back to the past life of silly black sweet. Just a lover.

But the only thing that is uncertain at this time is what kind of identity the male protagonist was in his previous life? A lover or a detective? Some people may have guessed it, but because before the finale, most of the plot was guided by the news reports of the year, so is the male protagonist a big devil or a prince charming?

Of course, under normal logic, male protagonists are generally good people.

Then the silly black and sweet artist ex-boyfriend awakened and turned into a big devil. It turned out that he was the detective from 30 years ago. He intends to elope with silly black sweet, and the three of them come to the central railway station in a fateful way. Only then did the director implicitly tell the audience that the male protagonist was an infatuated man in his previous life; and the truth of the year may be the detective. In order to win the love of the infatuated woman, she deliberately used the name of investigating the infatuated man to spread rumors and cause the infatuated woman to have a change in her feelings for the infatuated man. The detective burns with jealousy, unable to extricate himself, and kills the infatuated woman. The infatuated man fights with the detective to protect the infatuated woman, and all three of them die in the end.

This, this, the detective got a double kill thirty years ago?

In this life, the male protagonist was shot to protect the silly black sweet. The police came to kill the big devil.

So the report that slandered the infatuated man as a murderer 30 years ago is gone?

Who will return the innocence of the infatuated man?

  • Dylan: in everyone's life there comes a time when the universe open itself for just a few moments to show us what's truly possible

  • Dylan Branson: [opening narration] My dad told me that people have always looked to the patterns of the stars to predict what was going to happen in their lives, and if you could understand those patterns then you'd be able to know what was going to happen before anyone else did. Last time we saw each other, he told me that each star's light has taken decades to reach us, and how it always burns brightest right before it dies. So now whenever a distant star lights up, I always feel like somewhere, somehow, someone's life is about to end.
