Wonderful character development!

Lack of good storyline.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

What did I like about the movie? I liked the idea of a perfect mate, perfect boyfriend and husband, the one who saves you from drowning, the one who waits for you for seven years, going to the army when the girl is marrying another fellow. The one who cooks, washes dishes, bathes her, massages her feet and thanks her for laughing for the first time after the accident. The one who carries her on his back home when she becomes carsick. Okay, the thing with buying all 1,000 cartons of yogurt was a bit freaky - after all, the expiration date cannot be more than a week. Who knows, maybe eating all those cartons of yogurt did more harm to her stomach than good, but the gesture itself was beautiful. I still do not understand, why did he pick her? Just because she helped out a pregnant lady on a subway? Because her scent reminded him of chrysanthemums? To sum it up (SPOILER): if you like dramas where somebody dies from cancer in the end, this movie is for you.

If you like dramas, you'll love this one, but if you're not totally into them this movie might not appeal to you.*** slight spoiler ***This movie included so many small drama parts, it looked to me a bit like the author just threw together all the ideas he found in other movies/stories and made a new movie out of it. The result is a emotional roller coaster, which actually was too dramatic for me. But I can very much image that other people more recipient for this really love this movie.Even if you're not very recipient towards dramas, this is not a bad movie. I'll give it a 6/10 even though some part were overdone to me.
