In this era of fast food, does love also need to be efficient?

After watching this drama at 84 Charing Cross Street, this book and this movie have one thing in common, that is, they are not "fast food" love, they are committed to bridging the distance of space and time, and beautiful things follow churn. In real society, many things need to be efficient, but love does not. When love no longer needs to look up and look at each other, some affection will quickly depreciate without being noticed. I like the process of being calm and patient, thinking about every sentence, and writing every word because I can't convey it immediately; I also cherish reading the other person's previous letter and thinking about the situation and mood of the other person when they read the letter a few days later.

    I watched it with my parents, what a cute video! The skill of the screenwriter is really good. This is a model of film first and then drama. I really like Liu Bieqian, the old fox.

    The handling of exposing the truth is really daunting, really daring. Possibly the most ingenious film in which Lubitsch ridiculed the dramatization, and it was done in a complete staged space. This cunning is simply exquisite.
