Poignant and bittersweet
Made me feel a lot of nostalgia for Taiwan even though this took place before my time! It was a really beautiful story — really poignant and subtle with the way it delivers references and relationship dynamics. The pacing was a little up and down and I have mixed feelings about the time jump — I wish there had been more balance and more development in the time jump.
Ultimately, I just loved the entire vibe of this movie, and I'm a sucker for this type of quiet yet fiery yearning slow burn. The entire movie felt bittersweet in the best way.
