Head on

Aiming to be a romantic movie with german elements, I went to the school cinema to watch this movie. From the beginning, Cahit's alcoholism and crazy talk were taken as a joke, and later on, Cahit became more and more hopeless, domestic violence, alcoholism, and drug addiction. He kicked Sibel out of the house on the night of his wedding with Sibel.

I really like how Sibel looked the next morning, wearing a white wedding dress, walking out of the street corner, so happy, as if there were no worries. Then when I went upstairs, the camera briefly stopped at the scenery outside the window, the shade of greenery and the mottled sunlight, beautiful like a painting. The doorbell rang twice, but no one answered, and Sibel sat on the stairs, waiting terrified.

I like the character of Selma, I must be very happy to have such a cousin in my fantasy life. Selma is a strong woman, optimistic, as if nothing will hold her back.

After Cahit got out of prison, he went to Turkey to find Sibel. Sibel freshened up and stood in front of the mirror with Cahit, hurriedly packing her clothes into her suitcase, thinking she was going to Mersin (Cahit's birthplace) with Cahit. But at noon on the day of the appointment, Sibel did not show up, and Cahit left alone.

Naive Cahit thought Sibel would wait for him, but after Cahit "made it through", Sibel moved on too. The love of two people is like the playfulness of children. After being hit on the head and bleeding in life, they each choose the life they want to settle down.

At the beginning, the "The The" band that the doctor mentioned to Cahit has the lyrics "if you can't change the world, change your world".

    The heroine turned out to be the chaotic, hot and cruel romantic from the beginning to the end of the filming. The love is too blind and neurotic. The ending only sighs "forgetting too long"

    Always feel a little too childish. . The development is as fast as a youth romance drama, and it is like a cruel youth drama by cutting wrists and committing bloodshed suicide. . The characterization, well, I think it's basically imposing a character that seems to stand out but is not convincing at all. The second half is getting better, except for the endless passion scenes, it's still good to single out.
