Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

 ... you can learn from:

Past Lives (2023)

Nora: There is a word in Korean. In-Yun. It means "providence" or "fate". But it's specifically about relationships between people. I think it comes from Buddhism and reincarnation. It's an In-Yun if two strangers even walk by each other in the street and their clothes accidentally brush. Because it means there must have been something between them in their past lives. If two people get married, they say it's because there have been 8,000 layers of In-Yun over 8,000 lifetimes.

Happy 41st birthday to Greta Lee today! I loved
this movie very very very much. I would have nominated
all three actors for Oscars. (Especially Teo Yoo dammit.)

Totally agree, this movie is beautiful, and the actors are perfect in it.

Yoo broke my heart with small little voice inflections,gestures and touching moments,right up there this year with Andrew Scott as Best Actor of the year.
