Due to her own flaws, Onionhead did not dare to express it, but silently played the saxophone she liked on Akio's unhappy night.
Qiu Nan also liked him in his relationship with Onion Head, but before he could express his heart, Onion Head had a car accident, and the two people were separated by life and death.
In heaven, Onionhead gets the chance to return to earth for five days, but he can't tell others his identity, and he does everything he can to get Akio to know that he is Onionhead.
He pretended to use the blank diary of the onion head and told Akio about the things they only knew between them.
The most distant distance in the world is not life and death, but standing in front of you without being able to say, "I love you." ””
Qiu Nan listened to two paragraphs and gave up, because she realized how much she loved Onion Head, and he couldn't come back, and he wouldn't know his intentions.
She confided her regrets to the onion-headed doll, and she was immersed in the fact that the onion-headed was gone, not noticing that the man in front of her was the onion-headed.
"Obviously like him why don't you tell him, obviously want him to know, hope that the person who blows the saxophone is him, why don't you ask clearly?" Why not say it? Now it's not okay, can you start all over again, only memories and what is the use, as long as one day, give me another day is good, okay?"
When she finally knew the truth, it was already the night of the fifth day of the onion head in the human world, and today was the day he left the human world.
"But don't ignore me, in fact, I am really careless, I have to prove everything to know that you are the onion head, I am really stupid." 」
At this time, Qiu Nan expressed his heart, but Onionhead had to leave, and even if they fell in love again, they could only watch the last meteor shower together.
Onionhead also took the opportunity to call the radio station to express his heart to Akio.
"I saved the most memorable moments. Whether it is laughter or tears, I hope that this little bit of memory can accompany my most beloved person, so brave and brave to continue her life journey."
The two people snuggling up to each other waited for the meteor shower to appear, and the arrival of the meteor shower also meant that the onion head was about to leave. In the reluctance of the two, the onion head disappeared with the meteor, and the onion head finally left, leaving only Qiu Nan.
"I finally know what a meteor shower is, it's the tears that flow from the sky."
Overall, "Star Wish" has The amazing face of Cecilia Cheung when she was young, as well as the tear-jerking touching plot, and it is a movie worth watching.
The director also uses the tragedy of onion head and autumn man to remind the audience to cherish the present, cherish the people around them, and don't wait until they lose it to regret it.
In the movie, the onion head has five days left, but in reality, sometimes it is lost forever. As the onion head said at the end, cherish and grasp what you have, whether it is the present or the future, even if you slip away in a hurry, I have no regrets in this life.
