みんな一人ぼっち-Lonely Together #9 (Chiaki Tochihara)

I chose a film from Norway called Lonely Together (2006), directed by Trond Fausa Aurvag. This short film is comedy but I think we can think about love, friendship, and our life from this film. This film was about a guy who was jilted and became desperate. He went to a counselor and a group counselor and he told them about his ex-girlfriend. Always he was thinking about her and other members too. They always comforted each other to care of their wounded hearts. But he noticed that it's important to seize the day because we never know what might happen, so he put up some pictures of her on a wall and started his new life with a feeling of regret. One day, on his birthday, they hold a party at his house and they put a three-cornered hat on their head, at that time, the phone was ringing. That was his ex-girlfriend and she said that she wanted to celebrate him so she wanted to meet him. Then, he ran fast to the place where she was waiting, and they could see each other again, and she said "Do you think we could start over again?" but he didn't say "YES" instead of this he said "BATHROOM", and he went back to his house where his friends were. Finally, he could notice what he really want and need. I think life is short, so we can enjoy things which are just in front of us!! Begone, sad, self-pitying glance! Everything is so fantastic!!
