Watching this movie just makes me wonder, how do we maintain the passion and love a couple have for each other years down the road? With the onslaught of commitments: houses, cars, bills, job, we may be too caught up with this materialistic world to meet all expectations that we just sometimes take the other part for granted. Pretty interesting to look at the couples on screen facing all the problems that they never want to talk about to each other, that sometimes the solution is perhaps the most basic foundation in humanity: Communication, Care and Love..

Ps: Did I tell you that Xiaxue's BF proposed to her in the very cinema that I and *mds* were in?
