I've been wanting to watch this movie for a while. When I saw the trailer, I was intrigued by this monologue of the heroine of the movie. It goes:

'I thought I understood it. But I didn't. Not really. Only the smudginess of it. The egoness of it. Only the idea of it. Of you and me.'

The scenes of the movie also seemed like something I would like. So I watched the movie today. It was warm and real. I could relate to the feelings they felt because of my experience. Even though mine didn't end up as theirs, I think the feelings and stresses we felt were the same. Maybe for me, the guy wasn't the right one. I wasn't supposed to be with him. If I were, or if we felt something strong for each other, we would have found some way to be together like they did. But I'm not regretting anything or complaining about not having a happy ending like their story. I am merely stating the fact and telling the story of what happened.

The reality of getting a visa and violating visa and also looking for a new job made the movie a better one. If it was just about two people from different countries falling in love and getting married and live happily after, then it will only stay as a movie. However, no matter what, being with someone you love is the most important thing, I still believe.
