Pure Love

I kind of misunderstood the film. It's not mainly about the contradiction between reality and ideal. It's about love, Pure love. The love the man has towards a woman from a different world. Maybe the love is selfish and morally wrong, but that's not what the director trying to tell or concerned. There are not right things or wrong things to do in the field of Pure love. Typical French film about love ,extremely romantic as well as extremely crazy.
I'd like to compare the film with " love letter", both of them are about pure love but through contrary ways to express.
In "love letter", love is as clean as snow while in "lovers on the bridge", love is as dirty as the broken bridge. However ,merely use the words clean and dirty can hardly to touch the essence of the films, cause all adjectives are only suitable to describe what things look like or appearance.
That's why I think both films are similar in their essence. So ,after we say them, forget about the snow,the broken bridge ,the selfish man or woman,the ugly Paris, all of them appeared on the screen are for the purpose of helping us find a way leading to pure love,then we could abandon ourselves to the world of pure love ,without nothing to worry about or to interrupt us anymore
