Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind 2004

Director: Michel Gondry.
Cast: Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Gerry Robert Byrne.

If you can delete the special memory which is you don't want to remember anymore what will you do? delete or not? Maybe anybody has imagined that before, I also wanted to do this after I broke up with ex-boyfriend.
After broke up with girl friend, he suffered from so he decided to remove his memory about her. And he went see the experts but he realized love about her again. He didn't want to vanish any more but he could not stop them. He tried to get back his memory again.
I got impressed many scenes. First of all from when they met in the train for first time, the actress's hair was orange color and changed several times.
You should pay attention the scenes that when he was removing the memories and getting back to the memories. The reason why I like this film is very unique. This film has fantasy and romance story both of them. The story and structure are unique as well.

Although their parents didn't be made concluded, their children could continue their love.

If only..

Director: Gil Junger
Cast: Jenifer Love Hewitt, Pau Nicholls

Actually I don't like a sad movie I like a happy ending story but the ending of this film is sad and also happy. If you can stop your lover's death, how could you do that? This film is mixed romance and fantasy.
Samanda and Ian love each other. Samanda is romantic and a violinist and Ian is a businessman to dream a success. They loved each other but they are different.
One day, that day was so important for both of them. Samanda had a performance for graduation and Ian had an important presentation. That day, they had a fight
awfully and then during Samanda was going home in the taxi Ian saw Samanda's death in front of him because of a car accident. He couldn't believe her death and he regret he didn't say to her " I love you." However, next day, when he woke up in the morning next day, he was surprised because yesterday was replaying. So he tried to change that happen but he couldn't stop that and he decided to give the special present for her. That is he exchanged his life instead of her death.
I'd like to meet somebody who can do that like Ian. Will I..?

Between Calm And Passion 2001


Director- Calmi Cuori Appassionati
Actor - Kelly Chen - Wai Larm
Takenouchi - Yukata

I read the book firstly before this film was made in 2001. I got impressed this book so I was happy when this film was made but I was a little bit disappointed. This film was good but the book was better than this because the film was a little bit boring and couldn't express everything in my view. Anyway, this movie was calm and romantic. Especially, the background of the film was so nice and beautiful, as if I feel I looked around Florence in Italy. I'd like to see Duomo directly.
The story is that Junsei Agata is studying to be a restoration expert who specializes in fine art, working on historical canvases in Florence, Italy. Through the years Junsei has been unable to forget Aoi, his true love, the one he had to separate from. He remembers a ten year old promise they made to meet at a cathedral in Florence on her 30th birthday...
