Movie "Love Letter"

Tonight I have watched two movies. The first one was not good and I even didn't remember the name. The second one was the movie that I have desire to finish watching it for a long time. It's a Japanese movie called the 'loved letter'. I have watched a bit before, but I couldn't grasped the essence because I was still young at that time. This time when I watch it I finally understand what the message the movies want to come across.

When one watch this kind of movie, we will always try to put ourselves in that hypothetical situation of the main actors (say person A, B, C). We will think what if we are person A, who was trying to discover as well as to bury the memory and the past of her love one who has died. Or what if we are person B, who never understand her old classmates who has secretly admired her in the past. Through retrieving her past she finally realise, but only to find out that her old classmates has already died and disappeared from this earth. Or what if we are person C, who secretly admired his classmate, leaving with many traces, but never express to her during his teenage time, and in the end find a girlfriend (person A) who is the reminiscent of his first love (person B) in his memory.

Setting asides of whether the message is 'correct' or not. Though the movie is painting the beauty of an ideal (in Asian culture) and never it is a reality, it allows you to reflect and to dig deep into our hearts and our thoughts on the issue of boys-girls relationship. Sometimes looking back, it seems that we are getting a bit too old, as our youth during the schooltime has already gone, and we can't went back to our past.
