I just watched this movie past lives.
It’s about how childhood sweethearts reconnect in their 20s virtually and then again in person in their 30s when she is married.
It’s the what if movie - what would have happened if she hadn’t left Korea, if things would have been different, would they have ended up together. But they didn’t and she’s married now to someone else and lives in the East Village.
It’s not a movie of lust or affair. She doesn’t do anything wrong. They don’t cross the line.
At the end, he’s getting in the taxi for what they know will be the last time they see each other. And he asks what they will be to each other in their next lives. She says, I don’t know, he agrees and then says “See you there.”
It’s gut wrenching and heart breaking and I feel like that could be me with you if we don’t do this. I don’t want you to be a what if.
