The Most Distant Course

The movie is about move and loneliness. 小雲, who is played by 桂綸鎂, is the third person.She always does everything by herself because she knows that her boyfriend can't keep her accompany all the time. She goes to work by herself, eats dinner by berself, even moves house by herself. When she feels lonely, she just sits on the corner of the room, and talks to herself.One day, she receives a tape form a man, 小湯. Because of curiosity, she listens the tape and finds that there are a lot of beautiful voices in it. After receiving many tapes from 小湯, she decides to fond out where the voices are and who the man is.

小湯, who is a recording engineer, breaks up with his girlfriend. In order to make his girlfriend love him again, he goes to the east of Taiwan and records many tape called" Voices of Formosa."He keeps sending the tapes to his girlfriend, however, his girfriend has already moved to the other place..... 阿才, who is a psychiatrist, always cures patients calmly. But one day, he realizes that he also has many problems, therefore, he goes to the east of Taiwan and tries to find where his first lover is......

"What is the most distant course?" Actually, it's a very difficult question. I have read a poery written by Rabindranath Tagore:" The furthest distance in the world , Is not between life and death,But when I stand in front of you ,Yet you don't know that I love you." For me, the most distant couse is the distance of hearts between people. Even you are in front of the person you love, you may don't know what he thinks about. Also, I think heart is the most complicates thing in the world. When people fall in love with each other,they will feel that they are together even they are in the distant course. Because their hearts are closed to each other. However, when they don't love each other anymore, they will feel that they are in the distant course even they are near each other.

I have been wanting to see the movie for a long time, but it seems I always be so busy yet I don't why.Ha~~ Yap...the title"the most distant course" makes me think much. The complicated emotion between people is the most important one. Although I have not had a boyfriend, I can realize the feeling. Because in our daily lives, friends also play an important role,sometimes you care a friend, but the one caanot realize it. You know what I mean.
