Those who have seen these movies can well understand what I mean...:-) but for others... I can summarize these movies in one line...there are two people... a girl and a boy... and all that they do through out the movie... is TALK... they talk and talk and talk...!! That's pretty much it.... :-) And I loved it...!!
Sometimes it happens that I am talking to someone and I loose track of time... the surroundings and the turbulence around me ...cease to exist...!! ... The talks can be anything as silly as discussing some comic character... or something as important as religion....!! The subject ... or context is immaterial... what matters is the spontaneity... and the connection with the other person....!! For me... in any relationship... it is very important to be able to talk...!! That is how I get to know the other person... that is how I get to understand someone else's perspective... their hopes...their vulnerability... their quest... and their world... :-)
In any relationship... the bond is strongest...when the two individual can connect... can talk... because any other ingredient like age, money, status, beauty etc. are short lived....!!
In the movie, these two individuals meet on a train… and start talking …then they keep on talking... they could just not stop... and that was wonderful...!!They could talk about anything ... just anything under the sky... and they could connect... relate...understand... appreciate... admire...and LOVE each other...!!
Their paths crossed for few hours.... and they became so comfortable with each other… so used to each other... that they promised to meet 6 months later...!! Unfortunately that could not happen... and then they meet after 9 years...!! In all these years they had led their independent and distinct lives.... but they could never love anyone else... because they could never talk like that with any one else... !! When they meet again.... they talk... they resume their conversation as if they were always together...!! And that is magical...!! It then ascends on you... that yes... indeed ...this is love... TRUE love...!!
The world does not matter if you have got that one person in your life... who could complete your sentences... who would know what is on your mind...!! ...then you can just be yourself... and isn’t that the key to all happiness...?? :-)
