Turn Left Turn Right

"We don't meet people by accident.
They are meant to cross our paths for a reason."

Destiny..

This one word is more than enough to describe the main idea of this movie.

          Have you ever thought about your own destiny? Have you ever met someone that makes you feel that you are destined for each other? Destiny are events that will necessarily happen to a particular person or thing in the future. We don't have the power to create our own destiny, every path we take leads us to a particular destiny and we will never know what will happen because no one can foresee the future.

          The story tells of two people who live in buildings right next to each other, separated only by a wall, and are always near each other but can't seem to find one another.

          The male protagonist (John) is a violinist who works from job to job. The female protagonist (Eve) is a translator for a book publishing company. Her job is to translate foreign books into Chinese. Both of them met by accident at the park fountain, when he helps her pick up her papers that have fallen into the fountain. They find out that they had met each other when they were younger at an amusement park, when both their schools had organized a field trip to the same place. Then, Eve had asked John for his telephone number, but the two never got in touch because she left her school bag on the train and lost John's phone number. The two laugh about the past and exchange phone numbers without asking for each other's name before parting quickly because of a coming rainstorm.

          It's funny how the movie keeps on preventing them to meet again after they got to know each other and it's a wonderful thing that love keeps us from giving up. We always find ways to fight for something even though we have little chances to succeed.

          It's annoying how destiny works sometimes, just like when this two protagonists are finally giving up and trying to move on with their lives, destiny comes back and gives them hints or clues to go back to their paths and continue to pursue their love ones. But the important thing is to trust your instincts it might be disappointing at first, but trust me believing on something helps you to succeeding your goal.
