During the twilight

I don't know, I don't know how a movie, and its sequel, can be so leisurely and so wonderful?
If the above one is just a very pure romantic film, then the second half of the nine years later has more rich insights that only life can give.
The same simple and refined, the conversation from beginning to end, only the scene changes and the emotions surging in the heart - it looks very smooth, just like their words, like a smart camera.
Looking at their obviously mature faces, there are traces of time, but only inadvertently will the so-called vicissitudes and sophistication be revealed - in fact, in such a time of prosperity and decline, everyone will find the helplessness and difficulties of life to some extent before practicing. It's just that one by one is no longer pure and optimistic. But the two of them met again in a dream, just like before, they were almost strangers but had strong spiritual communication, so they communicated almost without obstacles, like good friends, or lovers, or confidants who had only been separated for a few months. . almost.
Seeing what I once imagined becomes a reality, I always make assumptions in my heart, what would it be like if we were really together in the first place, what if we didn't stubbornly not keep the phone so as not to fall into a cliché, if, if.
Especially when they thought each other was very happy when they first met each other, but then gradually revealed the heartache and suffering of their respective lives, the two of them were powerless.
History cannot be rewritten, life cannot be repeated, there is no assumption or repentance, and everything is so helpless. And the mutual affection goes far beyond ordinary feelings, more than lovers, and deeper than confidants. In this way, wouldn't it become the best ending in each other's hearts?

The last time it was on the streets of Vienna, this time it was finally inevitable to come to Paris. Is there any other city better suited to their story than Paris?
At the beginning of the empty scene in the morning light, the gardens, alleys, piers, apartments, cafes, and Shakespeare bookstores are all places where the two of them stayed afterward. In these street scenes that exude the fragrance of leisurely flowers and plants, this brief encounter is as hurried but beautiful as the brief encounter many years ago.
Women are doing their favorite careers independently, but they are less naive and longing than before, and are a little more sophisticated and sentimental; men are in the midst of enviable success, but they have always been helpless in the face of inner sadness and affection. However, they are still beautiful - in such a twilight, in such a city.
Because at least they all have a changeable future and golden memories.
