《Meet Joe Black》Brad Pitt, 一見鍾情但在生死交錯中錯過的愛情故事 (A love story of -- love at first sight  [they are right for each other] but missed amid the twists of life and death).

In 1997, at the beginning of this film, the male and female protagonists encountered each other in a café, experiencing love at first sight. However, during their parting, they missed the chance for a mutual gaze, making me suspect whether the director was paying homage to "dong'ai" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRVqKulkCPc  

turning around and missing each other lookin always breaks my heart a lil bit. if only their eyes met one more time. Brad was so love-drunk that he clearly did not read the "Do Not Walk" sign.Claire is so dreamily distracted.

Life is funny sometimes, it gives you something and then takes something back. Nothing is lost I guess...

Morel of the story: Life is often shorter than you expected. Don’t be shy.


(East Asian romantic dramas), although this is no longer significant. What is love?

It is that moment of heart-fluttering [they are right for each other], unforgettable feeling. Encounters happen, but are missed, even though both parties frequently turn back, they cross paths in the sea of people, evoking a sigh of regret. This film is not just a love story; more importantly, it delves into the meaning of life and death. To conclude, I quote a passage: "Some people, some events, some farewells, turning around once is a lifetime." ...and lightening could strike... and she was HIT.

Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins give stellar performances in this film about a powerful man who receives a visit from Death and ...

  • Actors: Brad Pitt "Joe", Anthony Hopkins, Claire Forlani "Susan" [great acting, but she never got any awards. She was in Jackie Chan's movie, "Medallion"]
  • Director: Martin Brest

This movie told so many of life’s lessons we should all learn and know , loyalty, devotion , fathers love for his child , take nothing for granted and when you see that woman sitting at a table or booth or bar go up and say something you never know lightening could strike--that hit-by-a-car scene !!!!

As soon as he said lightning could strike and she looked at him... I got goosebumps

This scene reminds me of a story my dad told me when I was a young teenager. It's the story a dog walking down a country road. He was approaching a railroad crossing when he noticed a train in the distance. The dog figured he had plenty of time to make it across the track, but as the train got closer he decided he needed to pick up the pace. Well he was soon in dead run as he tried to beat the train to the crossing. It was close, but the dog made it most of the way across when the train ran over the tip of his tail. Angry at the train the dog spun around to bite the train and it ran over his head. While I pondered this little sad story, my dad looked at me said, "Son, the moral of the story is, never loose your head over a little piece of tail." It seems Joe Black never received any advice like this, and so he lost his focus and it cost him his life. My dad was full little gyms like this and other words of wisdom that he shared with me as I grew. He died way too young and I miss him every day.
 
We should thank these people for the presentation of a moment that is possible. Not as the act of selfishness. But as hope for a shared life of good, before death. A life well lived, worthy of resting in peace. Thank You.
 
I always wondered why they never just exchanged numbers, maybe Brads character thought about it but hesitated ?? these are the types of hesitations that eat at you later on, the “what if” scenarios.

“Yeah listen did I say something wrong?” “No. It was so right it scares me.” [
That woman's eyes... her vulnerability... best in cinema history.] The way they turn nervously towards each other.

世上的愛情影片很多很多, 你印象最為深刻的是哪幾部? 我先羅列一下我的 - 

第一部當歸於九十年代的《東京愛情故事》, 印象最深刻的一幕是丸子和莉香晚上告別 時約定從一數到三, 結果丸子先轉身準備離開, 而莉香根本就沒有轉過身去:-) 當整部劇大結局時,又來到了這一熟悉的橋段: 從一數到三後, 兩人都轉過了事, 這次是丸子戀戀不舍，充滿悔意的先回頭轉身, 看著莉香離開的背影, 最終沒有勇氣叫她一聲, 正像一句話說的: “它讚揚了愛的勇敢, 也理解了愛的怯懦”. 如果有一天在東京的街頭, 你遇到一個眼睛笑得像月牙一樣 的女孩, 陽光, 自信, 勇敢, 請大膽的上去認識一下.

第二部: 〈Mece Joe Black〉(第六感生死緣). 這部1997年的影片, 電影開頭男女雙方在咖啡館邂逅，一見鍾情, 分別時錯過相互的回望鏡頭, 讓我懷疑導演是否在致敬東愛, 雖然這已經不重要. 愛是什麽? 是那一瞬間的心靈悸動, 念念不忘. 遇見，但又錯過, 即使雙 方頻頻回頭, 但交錯於人海, 令人唏噓不已。這部影片不僅僅是一部愛情電影, 更重要的是一部探究生死意義的電影. 這裏引用一段話來結束: “有些人, 有些事, 有些告別, 一轉身就是一輩子.”

第三部〈甜蜜蜜〉. 我認為這是香港最好的愛情片, 影片拍得很精致, 細膩, 有幾段 讓人過目難忘. 第一幕, 在紐約街頭, 李翹在被拘押的警車上看到黎小軍騎著單車的身影, 猛然下車在車水馬龍的時代廣場人流中尋找他, 最後茫然無果，兩人擦身而過; 第二幕, 還是在紐約街頭, 兩人不約而同駐足在電視櫥窗前駐足觀看鄧麗君去世的新聞, 於茫茫人海中再次重逢,神奇的命運之約啊…當年我在獅城一個人在看這部電影時, 那種震撼加甜蜜溫暖的感覺至今難忘. “在那裏, 在那裏見過你, 你的笑容這樣熟悉, 我一時想不起…” 也引用一段影評來結束: "有些愛, 隻能止於唇齒, 掩於歲月, 等歲月垂顧, 留時間解答, 而甜蜜蜜的意思, 就是再苦再難, 笑一笑, 都有甜蜜的回味."

遇見是美好的, 難忘的. 音樂詩人李建的作品〈傳奇〉歌詞裏: "隻是因為在人群中多看了你一眼, 再也沒能忘 掉你容顏” 是的, 走在路上, 美女, 帥哥, 不妨多看幾眼. 有感覺的勇敢問候一下, 有強烈想感覺的，告別後一定要多回頭看幾眼， 說不定那一刻他也在回望著你. 

切記，切記.

 
In college, my wife came to my apartment with her boyfriend at the time. I was having a huge party. I saw her from across the room and I thought she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. Took my breath away. But I was so distracted by my party that I didn't even introduce myself. We made eye contact a number of times. I was completely struck by her.
 
Years later I saw her not her, by chance, when I was waiting for someone else to come out of an apartment building. I asked her out immediately. I wasn't going to lose her again.
 
By a miracle, we were both recently single. We've been married twenty years. 3 children. I still obsess about her all the time. Completely in love. Every single day I try to figure out some way to make her day better or create our weekly date night so she feels loved. It's really strange how much you can love someone... And how that love just gets stronger.
 
I have probably 15 pictures of her in my office. Most from before we met. I look at them and I think "That beatiful young woman doesn't even know it yet...but she's going to be the mother of my children some day." It fills me with love. And this movie was my inspiration for asking her to go on that first date.
 
 
I was at the local "Varsity Inn" when a pledge came in with his date. I saw her from across the room and never looked back. He introduced her and noted it was their first date. We talked for a bit and I told him that I would like to take her out. He said that was up to her. I turned to her and asked if she would like to go out. We went to a show, "The Sound of Music", the next night and were married 18 months later. We were married for 52 years. I loved her from the moment I saw her and I still love her today. As she would say "always and forever". RIP
 
 
This movie taugh me so much about loyalty and love and to talk to the girl you find attractive because lighting could strike and she could end up being your wife.
