“It reminds me of that old joke- you know, a guy walks into a psychiatrist's office and says, hey doc, my brother's crazy! He thinks he's a chicken. Then the doc says, why don't you turn him in? Then the guy says, I would but I need the eggs. I guess that's how I feel about relationships. They're totally crazy, irrational, and absurd, but we keep going through it because we need the eggs.”
起初我對這段文字毫無頭緒,後來找到一個快狠準的解畫:Egg is your irrational expectation over the crazy relationship. The story is good, and I really love the way Annie and Alvy were still together. Especially the scenes at the beginning that, Annie and Alvy went through their pass relationships and how they laugh at the old memories together(though they actually just happened a few months ago!) I am not acknowledgeable to understand most of his jokes but it doesnt make a problem to go through the whole movie happily and smoothly.
Maybe I am still too young when comparing with Woody Allen, I think my love life ends too soon. I want to try more and more and more and there shouldnt be an end right? What's the point of getting married? Marriage shouldnt be a sign of ‘stop to be curious about other males/females’.(Theres never 100% security and promising in a relationship isnt it?) Or maybe there's shouldnt a thing called marriage, it certainly drives people crazy, as some people expect marriage is a life-time promise AS they clearly understand that, relationship/lovelife wouldnt exist forever and ever. Well maybe this is the 'egg' that Alvy mentioned at the end of the movie.
When I woke up this morning, the last few scenes of the movie suddenly came up to my mind. Annie and Alvy were sitting face to face and talking together inside a restaurant, and they were only friends in that scene. I started to realise everything has gone too fast... my memories flash back and they seems just happened a few weeks ago——the physical time hasn't passed too soon but the distance, the distance......
