An illusion

I regret that I have the habit of watching movies first. I knew the ending before watching "Polar Lovers", which is really a pity. If everything is unknown, I think this movie will be more exciting.

This movie has a strong sense of fatalism. The two have known each other's half-brothers since they were young, and they were not together in the end. Two people always miss it. They once walked head-on in a square and sat in separate places to rest, but they never got together. Fate is always joking again and again. This episode is a bit like "Going Left, Going Right", but the difference is that "Polar Lovers" is a total tragedy. The two people did not meet in disaster, but were separated forever.

Otto and Ana, just like their names, are very special names. In the movie, this kind of name is called palindrome that reads both forward and backward. It's like a circle, never ending, back and forth, entangled repeatedly, it's also like reincarnation. Otto said: "It's good to live in a non-stop cycle. But mine is only a circle, not even complete. The most important thing is losing. I wrote her name countless times in my heart. Here and now. ,
I can’t get close to anything. I exist alone.” Ana said, “I’ll be here as long as necessary, waiting for a great coincidence in my life. I have encountered all kinds of coincidences, and coincidences constitute me. The way of life. The first most important one was a bad one, like a scene. "

If it weren't for the crooked ball, none of this would have happened. Otto's parents will not divorce, her father will not marry Ana's mother, her mother will not die, and he will not have any relationship with Ana. The two of them will be like two planets on different orbits without any intersection. But this is fate, as if everything has been arranged long ago. The two of them self-defeatingly became brothers and sisters and fell in love with each other.

There are too many coincidences in life, but they still miss each other, but two people who love each other have to go through so many hardships. Otto and Ana should be said to have no part in it! Destined not to be together. If it should be as good as Ana thought, the two met in the grandfather's cabin. There are no ifs in life, but there are many buts. Otto watched Ana leave, only a few minutes late. .

Without that tragic ending, this would be a beautiful love story. The sun will not go down that day in the Arctic Circle. It is so romantic to watch the midnight sun.

    "I always love you, if I run out of gas, I'll die." I put aside the film for three years, and finally watched it. I originally wanted to give it four stars, but I didn't expect the ending to be so vulgar, I despised the most Taking a car accident as a bridge to interrupt, no creativity!
