Love is 98 degrees. (c) I went on to this short film for an incredibly long time, much longer than ever. Starting to look, threw, and then just did not dare to start again. It seemed so short, but for some reason it was incredibly difficult to see it completely. Recently, I have been very excited about Chinese films. In order not to start looking, I can not get rid of the strange and unusual sense of freedom and a certain weightlessness. I can’t describe exactly what it is, but it’s so easy for me after the films of this country. This story became another beautiful and incredible thing that will remain in my memory for a long time. I don’t watch Chinese movies very often, which is why it’s so nice to come across such wonderful stories.
At first, it may seem that the film is completely boring and can be slightly incomprehensible. These were the first feelings that arose on the first attempt to view. I couldn’t watch the movie until the middle and turned it off, but something stopped me and I watched it again after almost a year. And now I’m absolutely delighted and regret that I didn’t have enough strength the first time. But a little relieved sigh because this story perfectly lifted the mood on this day and gave a little romantic tale with a happy ending.
The film is divided into several parts, with its characters, with its own stories, but they are united by one narrator. The main character does not catch on completely at the beginning of the story, but eventually warm feelings wake up to him and he sharply begins to like. And his story is really so magical and beautiful. I waited breathlessly for the story of his beautiful friend, but I did not regret that I could see this beauty instead of him. Love in 98 degrees was the main thing for me in the film. Not that others didn’t like it, it was just that this one was preserved in the heart and gave a sense of freedom. It was so easy on the soul.
“Love cannot be judged as a thing to be bought,” beautiful words that fully reflect the essence of the film. I loved the idea and its execution.

A beautiful story about true love and friendship, and that the most precious is unacceptably close, but we do not see it.
