"You know what your problem is? You’re too concerned about where you’re going instead of how you’re going to get there. Most of the time, you can’t be sure if things are gonna work out your way."
I haven't watched this in several years and still cry by the end. I can't believe Wong Fu made this when they were still in college. They're really blessed with some amazing, creative, and thoughtful minds (and hearts).
This film had such a simple beauty. It was perfect. it touched my heart. I kind of cried at the end. Thanks, Wong Fu, for making such a touching and wonderful video.
I think the quote "Certain things don't need to be rushed. They just need time" Is great. It apples to many things in life. I wouldn't know the pain of losing another but when something traumatic does happen it usually goes away.
Even though this video was made 3 years ago, i have to say this, it's soo cool because April 8 is my birthday! hehe, thought i'd be a nerd for a second! lol
Why does Hollywood waste so many millions of dollars making two hour movies that don't have half the content of these shorts? Honestly, Wong Fu Productions, you could sell these for $5 each and provide more value than most blockbusters. Go for it.
Wow... This was so emotionally moving, it actually made me cry as if i actually knew them and were close to them. This is such an AMAZING piece of art
i was in shock when i heard the song!!!! omggggg! its anonatsuhe, from sentochihirono kamikakushi...aka, spirited away! no, the theme is supposedly itsumo nando demo, by kimura san
the song when he is at the site is ano natsu he, by joe hisaishi. a similar song is anohinokawa, also by joe hisaishi. its available on itunes under the album "hisaishi meets miyazaki" :D the name translation is one summer's day.
"i guess you can just say, im crossing the street", i kinda dont get that line near the end,, in the beginning he said he was never brave enough to cross the street with his buddy when he was young.. i know it connects to that part but i kinda dont get the meaning.. some one explain please?
extremely beautiful <3
