how i wish it was unfinished

After watching it, for countless moments, the warm and ambiguous tones in it flashed back in my mind like movie footage.
They are not together. This ending seems very old-fashioned, but it still stabbed me like a needle, and I didn't cry. But I felt that I couldn't breathe for a long time, and a large piece of stuff was pressing in my heart, which made me extremely depressed.
I remember that not long after I saw the beginning, He Baorong was looking at Li Yaohui in the rearview mirror of the car, expressionless. I know he's a little tired. But no matter how many partners he changed, he would never forget it, and he didn't know how long they could be together. But he thought that Li Yaohui would never be able to match the spell.

That's just, he thought.

The story seems simple. Wong Kar-Wai deleted many scenes of the two women and Zhang Zhen, of course, there are very detailed records in "The Rebirth of Spring". He deleted the clip of Liang Yaohui's suicide. Liang Yaohui watched the thick blood flow down from his arms and slowly extended to the table. I am very impressed with this episode.
Wong Kar-wai himself didn't know what kind of movie he wanted to make, and his thinking was very confusing. Many of the original ideas have been knocked back.
I thought, maybe he just wanted to do the story of these three men. simple.

I have to admit that when I saw Liang Yaohui in that cafe, holding a tape recorder, he couldn't say anything, just couldn't help his eyes red. I'm really really sad. He knew it, but he still couldn't forget it. But he won't go back, ever.
The boy with the tape recorder may just be the shadow of He Baorong.

Too bad we won't be together again.

Just like Leslie Cheung. He committed suicide, no one could believe it. He was in his 40s when he made this film.
Ok. I admit that I do not know how to evaluate Mr. Leslie Cheung.
Or maybe it was the best way for him to leave.

I don't think I'll ever see such a heartwarming movie again.
How I wish it was unfinished.
