the last winter ending explained
However, weird events happen trapping the group in the base. and the kiss at the beginning is (for me) the best kiss of this year in dramaland! However, Puss realizes that his one life is worth fighting for, and chooses not to use the stars wish. Thank you. Otherwise, he would not have let her go through the pain and suffering alone again as she explained that fear to him several times throughout the dramaespecially after they had finally connected without any charades. I'm in dramaland and i want the happy ending of course. The most important thing being that Soo was still standing at the end-would have hated that he died Young was still alive. Granted, some things started to not make sense towards the end, but NOTHING about this show makes me think the director or writer became lazy and gave up along the way. There were some really amazing nuances to this drama that I just loved. I wouldn't mind a directors cut not for more action but more subtext. Here it just doesn't compute. I need you next to me. Even if OY couldn't forgive OS at that moment, they could have still talked, I thought. Also, I have to agree that the pace of the finale felt waaaay off. They talked about making Jin-sung betray his friend, but the way they chose to do it didn't make any sense whatsoever. This happy ending is actually way too perfect to be realistic, and these characters definitely lucked out to be able to survive in a melodrama. "The Last Winter" has an effective build up. I dont want to admit it, but I cant be a better person. Gary, the pilot, and the replacement environmental scientist, Marshowitz, are both killed in the crash; Foster is horrifically burned, but manages to live out the night before dying. They're both crazy beautiful, I want to cry!! Im going to backtrack a bit to the attempted suicide, frankly because it still doesnt make any godforsaken sense on my end. I'll bet Young cut the short way across her arm too, rather than the long way, which would again be what you would do if you actually wanted to die. Especially since Soo's death would have been dependent on a storyline I found illogical and kind of out of place. It was a pleasure reading them. Ron Perlman was, well, Ron Perlman, and James Le Gros did fairly well as his opposite. [6] Funding came from the Icelandic Film Commission and Katapult. Theoretically, you have a beautiful setup with Jin Sung regarding Soo as his brother, as a part of his family, as the object of his loyalty and on the other side his commitment to his blood-related family and Hee Sun and Boss Kim in the background, pulling evil strings and digging his grave. Connect with Facebook if (d.getElementById(id)) return; So the truck didn't run over everyone? They seemed to have resorted back to their just friends status although Sung was still very much in love with her still. He is forever amazing there! Then that means shes still the same old Young, still capable of putting those around her through unspeakable misery because she cant see past herself and her feelings. It did difficult to play blind person who has to display lots of deep scars and emotion. More importantly, Young, you are being kissed by Soo! I agree with Hannah -- the flowers were a continual peace offering and the weirdly beautiful blurriness was Young's pov. Maybe this is how she sees redemption or growth. I hate mellow, I always hate mellow. He kept his con going for a lot, lot longer. In the end, the suicide attempt didnt even put her out for a night, and she was completely fine by morning. [4] The idea of stranding two people with radically different outlooks was subsequently incorporated into the film's ending. But after watching the episode for myself and listening to the dialogue, it's obvious that Soo is alive. Ivoire, I am late to this but what is it with will-he-die melos of late and their nonsensical endings? That ending just confused me. You made viewing this beautiful drama (scenes, actors and soundtracks) even more memorable. Eventually they did and she gave up and died. She doesnt want blindness to haunt Young any longer and cries that shes sorry, which Im guessing is finally an apology for causing her blindness in the first place. Why wouldnt I want to love her when I started out that way?) ALL the characters are wooden. while watching this episode, as in "I really want to understand, but honestly, I don't. The Last of Us 2's ending is a hard pill to swallow. Jin-sung readies to stab his best friend again, but he cant bring himself to do it and drops the knife. Maybe you can pretend her long hair is a wig, LOL. Make Kim think Oh Soo, died like Moo Chul had everyone thinking he was threatening Soo instead of just warning him? When she was with Secretary Wang, Lawyer Jang, and her ex-fiance with those blind kids, those scenes were not blurry. The show was very beautiful to look at. The Brattle Film Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit, supported in part by grants from the Cambridge Arts Council and the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. So, it makes me think that perhaps those scenes with Oh Soo were not real - maybe they respresent Young's imagination or their "afterlife" together. However, the story drags on and it all goes downhill soon. It was just the two of them, but in this ending, there were several others. She's in her version of the LOST holding pattern universe and she had to find her way to Soo, thus the center scene surrounded by people that she loves and makes her happy. To be honest, I felt Nice Guy/Innocent Man was more engaging than That Winter, the Wind Blows. Which might be realistic. I agree with you all the way! Thank you again Heads for being on this journey with us and for helping us make sense of it. There's a gangster figure who seemed really mean, but who is actually a bit of a softie. Thank you all, and thank you HeadsNo2 for your recaps. The flowers suggested by MC are the favorite flowers of Oh young and her brother same with Oh soo. Or that he was dead and the ending was a dream. The first time I didn't see it all and I judged it unfairly as a result. I was hoping for a more straight-forward ending, but I'll take this too. Sadly, that wasn't the case. Even if you didnt take the money, it wont bring everything back to the way it was.. Which means Soo can play against him and take all he has left. I totally agree. i'm a great fan of head's writing superpowers. heads, i remember u commenting on SHK casted in a melodrama (TWTWB) which makes me think u don't like her acting abilities? As Abby seeks an exit to the hospital, the camera focuses on her point of view. And then the scene changes, so that theyre suddenly kissing on on the same path where Young just walked, with Soo wearing the clothes she saw on him when he passed her on the bike. My theory is they were Earths own nature spirits emerging as we humans have finally destroyed the balance which allows life to exist. And if we could all remember the statement of the too "Its not over between us""if we meet again" bla, bla .Oh young said. I'm mad he had to stab his best friend for that to happen, though. WHY WOULD YOU KILL HIM!? Theyre in it to win it or else. Sometimes you can't explain your heart. The vaunted cinematography of this drama may appear genuinely impressive at first, but it dawns upon you sooner or later that, however it wants to emulate it, this is not a Merchant-Ivory film. This show started out great but slowly became distant with the sudden implausibilities and uncertainty of what Young was thinking as well as glossing over Sec. Meanwhile, Hee-sun sees a big truck headed their way on an empty street and warns Jin-sungs father, but he can only look in shock as the truck keeps barreling toward them. As for Soo, I mean, dude got stabbed not shot. Sec. Contains spoilers for The Falcon and the Winter Soldier episode 4, "The Whole World is Watching". Almost the ending: Yay! Otherwise she's hanging out in the afterlife with her ex-fiance. A passenger plane then crashes near them, causing their vehicle to get caught in the explosion. And when Soo pulls back, they both look into each others eyes, smiling. Also, it's not completely out of the blue, but I still don't buy how all a sudden the show just turned Soo into a chef at the end?! If you're on the edge of deciding whether to watch this or not, I'd say find it for free since you won't listen to a reviews on here wishing away your curiosity. I think she is still smart, just that depression--or drama depression, even--doesn't care about smartness. Something that I disagree with Heads here is about the suicidal tendency of OY, in some of her recaps she said that she thinks OY has already get over it. Her joy now was in helping others with similar disabilities and experiencing her love for Soo in her mind. SAME HERE! Happy waiting for the next trip everyone. Thank you, Heads. After watching the last ep, even though we got the happy ending, I felt that it was a frustrating journey. But fine, lets say Ill buy that love cures all, and that she just needed to know that Soo cared. (Im guessing the car crash was a vision of what would happen if Jin-sung disobeyed Boss Man, otherwise there would be no reason to obey if his family had already been taken from him.) Because a dead Soo wont give him any money, Boss Man has no choice but to try and win the pot to save himself from bankruptcy. But a girl can dream. Like the game Jin-sung arrives in the meantime so Boss Man can declare him Soos gambling partner, and all of Soos huffing and puffing cant reverse the situation now. Instead he grabs Gangster Wannabes knife by the blade and gives him the smack down, even going so far as to dislocate his would-be murderers shoulder. You just get some themes thrown in that never were mentioned before (so what are the childhood pictures supposed to mean and why was the strange box introduced into the plot heavily in the beginning to be dropped off in the end) plus a totally open and disappointing ending that I had the impression to have seen more than once before. We really don't know what happened when Oh soo was stubbed by Jin Sung. But time skips are not a panacea, and its a universal truth I really wish dramaland would accept, especially when the end result isnt anything we couldnt have reached without it. I did have a much more beautiful hair after my chemo and it takes me only 2 months to grow my hair. If he didn't I'd have to wrestle with that scene. A single broken vile of urine, yellowing the cold tile. Also, if they were both in the afterlife, I'm sure Young would get 100% of her sight back. Oh well. Abby stumbles upon the scene and, in an altercation with Dawn, pushes her over a shelf, causing Dawn to fall and break her neck. My hope: This drama was a commissioned one and in exchange of this ratings success SBS will let her write her own personal project. At times, I couldn't understand OY and I found her irritating sometimes. The Wheel of Time was not Brandon Sandersons creation, so even though he wrote the last It's photographed beautifully and (by and large) acted with conviction and sensitivity. Lawyer Jang finds Secretary Wang in the countryside, where she watches her elderly parents from afar. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Last Winter is a 2006 horror film directed by Larry Fessenden. The Last Winter premiered in The Contemporary World Cinema Programme at the 2006 Toronto International Film Festival on September 11, 2006. Really? It never felt like the characters were tying to be perfect or anything. or Soo mention od secretary Wang and the scene with the blind folded Wang, M and Jang say yes. A lot happened in The Last of Us, and players can probably expect the story in TLOU2 to be even more suspenseful and compelling (especially if Ellie finds out Joel was lying) when it releases on June 19, 2020. Barely worthwhile and really not a lot going for it. The bit with Secretary Wang is so, so weird. But he interacts with too many people and objects to be a ghost or a memory. The story of The Last of Us begins in the suburbs of Austin, Texas, where the main character Joel Miller lives with his daughter Sarah as a dangerous epidemic of the mutated The use of soft-focus lens didn't seem to mesh well with the story-telling part. Young finally prepares for surgery, as she tells Sun-hee that shes prepared for any eventuality though it would be nice to live through the surgery. It grossed another $64,332 internationally, for a worldwide total of $97,522. That was what it felt like to me, just so we could have the reunion scene in the very end and tie a neat bow). Well , some missing point that we need to understand OY is not only blind but psychologically is not stable. Wang walking back in so easily into OY's life. It's not like she's an emotionally stable person thinking through exactly how this will effect the people around her. They shift into her perspective when she was in the cab and saw the cherry blossoms, that's when the scene actually changed. It's by no means the worst thing I've ever seen, but it was a letdown - I can live with Young's suicide attempt, but the sudden Drama Fairy handwaving of it is too much. For me was obvious oh young didnt regain her sight, she basically could see only soo. I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to say about this one. I did feel one thing at the end of the final episode: Thank God it is finally over! Despite the fact that she threw the keys blindly into the greenhouse shrubbery the night before, Young emerges into the secret room without a speck of dirt on her. 5. I really wanted to completely love this show and I did especially the the first third of the drama but the show just started going downhill for me in the last three episodes. But then she adds that if she lives through her surgery, theyll meet again, and finally talk out their issues. Oooh, a twist! That's the best way to describe it honestly. The promise of sizzle from early on in the show fizzled out too. After a second fatal incident, he convinces Ed to travel with the team to a hospital for examination. Did the CCTV goons end up getting him because his promise, in a sense, broke (to let Soo & Jin Sung go unscathed)? And if somehow the show fails to root a characters emotions and reactions in some form of universal logic, then in the words of Cool Hand Luke, What weve got here is a failure to communicate.. At first, neither Tess nor Joel are aware of why Ellie is so important to the Fireflies and Marlene. Is that really the type of mommy dearest love we are supposed to buy into? I didn't think about it that way when watching the final scene so i believed they both died. First off, where did this apparition come from, is it an illusion created by the fumes from that white box? I think that is what the writer ment. Just like the one guy says, "Soo was willing to forget pride". This explains that Oh young has the ability to see but not really clear. | The episode opens with a scene from a talk show that takes place in 1968. You could drive a truck through them. Maybe there's no message. Synopsis. He looked dead, but it's possible he just went into shock (I mean his best friend just stabbed him--I would be shocked as hell!). Gangster Wannabe goes scurrying off with his tail between his legs just as Moo-chul collapses, spitting up blood from his stomach cancer. Soo holds Jin-sungs face for as long as he can, and the two stare wordlessly at each other until Soo cant hold himself up any longer. It wasn't even that the characters were unlike-able or underdeveloped. No thanks.). Episode 8 House of the Dragon explained. Who, out of the two of them, showed more human compassion? Okay, nothing much to say here that hasn't already been said by all the other good reviewers on here. But no, Young frequently visited Soo's cafe, hears the bell on his bracelet and yet Soo doesn't reveal to her that it's him until much later. (Even Wang's redemption arc, though not something I agree with, was well supported within the story -- it didn't come out of nowhere.). It being a cry for help doesn't make her suicide attempt less legitimate or fake in any way. If not, its a bad thing. This is a happy ending. I did share and understood your (and others') frustrations of the characters. . So, regardless of how good or bad Larry Fassenden's "The Last Winter" turned out, at least I was fairly confident the filming locations and the photography would be astounding. Ill miss it so much :D. I wanted to clear some things up for you, because I also had my doubts about whether Soo died or not at first. How will Gangster Kim overlook a non dead Soo. When he is found dead out on the snow the next morning, Hoffman suspects that sour gas (natural gas containing hydrogen sulfide) may have been leaked out as a result of runaway climate change (arctic methane release). Please click the link in that email to complete the email change process. I wished they would have saved time there, and showed us what happened after OS was stabbed, instead of letting us speculate on what happened. I concluded. @picklemonster: I was happy with the happy ending, too. I was also impressed by the consistent beauty of the cinematography; perfect contrasts, appropriately warm tone, gorgeous scenery, etc. And Oh Soo and Jin Seong ain't Robert Redford and Paul Newman. Im a huge fan of love me not - the movie, and for me, twtwb was the perfect adaptation, im sure no other producer could have made it better. I mean, there's blunt force trauma, but it's not exactly subtle. But, because Soo lived so the scene didn't actually impact the storyline much, I just stick my fingers in my ears and lalala my way through that scene and the drama works! As she takes a taxi home, she opens the window to feel the wind. Now that was a great ending. | Is he alive or just a figment of her memories? She didnt really want to commit suicide, it was just a cry for attention? :D. I'll add, I also agree that this wasn't the writer pulling out a happy ending to please fans or because she couldn't think of anything else. It will probably take how many months before the eyesight will go back to normal condition. The scenes are blurry because that's how Young sees the world now. There is something under the melting ice is it nature taking revenge on man, is it ghosts, is it just the paranoia of the crew turning on each other or is it seeping gas from the ground causing hallucinations like the ecological adviser of the team suspects?? I sooooooo appreciate that. Shes had it rough, but so did Soo. Really? Hoffman convinces Ed to travel with the team to a hospital for examination after Elliot's death; however, the bush plane arriving to pick them up crashes into their building, badly damaging it. Reddit and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to provide you with a better experience. But the scenes with Lawyer Jang and all of them wasn't from her perspective. So I read Heads' recap and some of the responses to see if I could understand a few more things before I started writing. I sometimes miss some of those, and I appreciate when those are pointed out to me. the last winter ending explained maine high Young wakes up to find Soo asleep at her bedside, and as she brushes her fingers across his face she remembers his desperate plea for her to watch his video. Secretary Wang wants to know why, considering how she made Young, you know, blind. I wish I wasnt so conflicted I can't believe how stupid the last shot is. However, when she speaks to one of the kids next to her she reaches out to hold his hand and seems to look him in the face when she speaks. A news anchorman is broadcasting over a television in the waiting room about natural disasters occurring nationwide. I dunno ! The Last of Us ends with the duo seemingly heading back towards Tommy's settlement, likely with humanity doomed as a result. The New Amsterdam series finale followed Dr. Max Goodwins final day at the NYC hospital but many With you so close, he couldn't really tell. I've watched it happen in quite a few dramas. This motion picture, "The Last Winter" has a feeling of doom about it right from the start. About the wang discussion, i think wang told her that soo died 20 days ago, after her chimio was over, because she didnt want to give up on her chimio because of the sad news (im assuming wang found out oh soo died 6 months ago). Soo. It really was. Sad. If the ending wasn't real then that was s a very elaborate dream with the cafe, watress, the fact that Soo had been for 6 months. And the wind finally stopped blowing!
