Your Eyes Tell (2020)

This movie was a very heart warming movie which talks about struggles of leaving a bad situation, disability, guilt and romance.

Romance:
The romance was truly rewarding and well paced, I loved how their love grew through time and eventually they dated which was truly warm and made the romance really smooth and got us audience to attach to the main romance very well. I also loved the scene where she gave him a massage and I genially thought it was going to lead to a sex scene but turning into a hug was very satisfying and beautiful to watch. Little moments like these makes the romance feel genuine and gives it a special meaning to the reason they got together which felt natural.

Disability ( WARNING IN THIS PARAGRAPH I TALK ABOUT THE SEXUAL ASSULT SCENE):
It was satisfying to finally see representation of a person who has a disability that is not wealthy and actually has to work and provide for herself, which is more common. One thing I loved about his movie was about how she was represented as and shows the struggle of hardship she faces as a blind person trying to survive in a non adaptable society. This was clearly demonstrated in the scene where she wants to ignore the sexual assault to keep her job, shows the desperation of need this job and also the hardship of even finding on or another one.

Guilt:
I have decided to not write a paragraph on leaving a bad situation, and her rather decided to focus on guilt because it is an interesting topic that was explored in the drama.

The fl felt guilty because she was driving and got distracted leading to her parents dying in a car accident
The ml felt guilty for betting someone up, which led to suicide.

Ignoring the rest of the plot the ml has committed crimes and multiple of them has been assaults. The victims family or the victim never got the justice and instead the ml redemption is him being guilty and praying to god everyday to forgive his sins is crazy. He never even decided to turn him self to the police or even apologies to the victims family which frustrated me because despite him being redeemed since her will likely never perform such actions because of his trauma, the victims never got justice. This movie only focused on the ml and his guilt. I feel like if he actually turned himself in, went to jail and served his time, then he will finally be redeemed but instead we are suppose to feel pity for him because of his trauma but none for the victim and his family?

It was so touchingly good. Everything hurts.

You know with the tragic past / medical dramas that you'd better be going in with a box of tissue.
The acting was amazing -- well of course, we got seasoned actress Yoshitaka Yuriko and upcoming rising star Yokohama Ryuusei
And villain-wise we got Machida Keita which was a hugeeee surprise for me <3 (known for Cherry Magic!)

I really like the way this was shot, with some slow and fast development
The best part was seeing that dog grow up LOL. Suku is so cute (and no it doesn't die in case you needed to check #DoesTheDogDie)
The main storyline... Well I don't really agree with some of the things the male lead did, but since it's a movie it didn't lead to an overbearingly stupid draggy plotline so I don't complain
In fact his decisions brought me the biggest crying point of the movie where I continued crying until pretty much the very end because of how touchingly sad everything was.

Anyway, watch if you're ready for a feels trip and enjoy good production value, good acting, and a cute dog. Don't watch if you like happy movies because this is obviously not it.

sweet movie

I had a difficult time not comparing this to Always (the Korean version). The actors/characters in Always are older, so I think I related more to that one because the main characters seemed lonelier, and I appreciated them finding one another more. The thing that really stuck out in this version, when he was trying to convince her to have the surgery, he was talking to her about being able to see her children. When he talked, it was like he was talking about her marrying someone else and having children. In Always, he asked her "what about when WE have babies" - that touched me so much more.

Yokohama Ryusei and Yoshitaka Yuriko both did a good job and were cute together. The actor that played his coach overacted quite a bit and that was bothersome for me.

The bonus for me was the BTS song Your Eyes Tell.

Assista

Realmente vale a pena assistir esse filme. Adorei ver o romance nascendo entre os protagonistas e fazer os dois superar juntos suas dores e medos. Eles eram tão lindos juntos queria que o filme nunca acabasse.
Adorei a atuação dos protagonistas principalmente a protagonista feminina , no inicio eu realmente achava que ela era deficiente visual.
Adorei a fotografia , enredo e roteiro tudo bem feito e executado, conseguiu me emocionar e me fazer feliz, foi bom e leve de assistir apesar da história triste.
Em fim recomendo gostei muito , é um belo romance para se assistir.

filme impecável, me arrependo de não ter assistido antes

simplesmente um dos melhores filmes de romance que assisti em toda a minha vida, os personagens são cativantes, a fotógrafia incrível e a trilha sonora impecável; ele me fez rir, chorar e compreender o lado de ambos os personagens em suas ações, é um filme que faz você refletir sobre o autoperdão já que ambos os personagens carregam com si a culpa de algo que ocorreu em seus respectivos passados e tentam se punir de alguma forma mesmo já tendo "pagado" por isso, é muito bonito ver um convencer o outro a si auto perdoarem, mesmo que isso leve tempo e poderem viver felizes e sem culpa. Com certeza voltarei a ver esse que se tornou um dos meus filmes favoritos

Your eyes tell é remake japonês de um filme coreano chamado “Always”, onde mostra a história de Kashiwagi Akari uma moça que fica cega depois de um acidente de carro e de “Antônio”/ Shinozaki Rui, um rapaz com um passado cheio de segredos e más escolhas que agora trabalha fazendo vários bicos além de ser segurança em estacionamento depois de ter abandonado o boxer.

Eles se conhecem nesse trabalho fixo dele e acabam evoluindo da amizade para um relacionamento amoroso, mas tudo muda quando Rui descobre que ele foi o culpado mesmo que indiretamente pelo acidente da Akai.

Gostei bastante da atuação, pra mim eles passaram bem as emoções com seus personagens.

Não é um filme maravilhoso,mas não chega a ser ruim, ele não tem nenhuma reviravolta mas tem seus momentos tocantes e vale a pena ser assistido.

Ah e tem uma música que faz parte da trilha sonora que foi cantada pelo BTS??.

?Hola a todos, ¿cómo están?? Hoy voy a hablarles de #YourEyesTell, una peli japonesa disponible en Netflix que no sabía que era la remake de una película Coreana del 2011, yo solo quería verla porque BTS era parte de la banda sonora y porque Keita Machida (señoro de todo lo bueno) tenía un personaje secundario... ¿Valió la pena? ¡Dejen que les cuente!

?La historia va de una chica llamada Akari que perdió la vista (y a sus padres) en un accidente. Mientras intenta disfrutar de las pequeñas cosas de la vida, comienza a hablar con Rui, un ex luchador de kickboxing que lo abandonó todo luego de vivir un hecho traumático en su pasado. La sonrisa de Akari hace que el mundo de Rui brille de nuevo, pero ¿esa felicidad puede durar?

?‍?Lo primero que quiero resaltar es la maravillosa actuación de Yuriko Yoshitaka, quien interpreta a Akari. Me impresionó tanto que al principio llegué a pensar que tal vez era ciega en la vida real. Igual, Ryūsei Yokohama como Rui tampoco se queda muy atrás a pesar de que durante la primera hora casi no tiene diálogos. Bueno, y ver a Machida también valió la pena, ¡obvio! Sin contar con que pude escuchar Your Eyes Tell de BTS que es una joya increíble y divina que encima queda re bien en la película y aaaaahh, bueno, me calmo.

?Pero no crean que todo es maravilloso. Si bien al principio la estaba disfrutando en serio (porque estaba cute y los protas tenían bastante química), cuando la historia se empezó a poner dramática, perdió encanto. A mí me gusta el drama, pero esto ya era demasiado, ya no tenía sentido. Llegó un punto en el que no entendía lo que estaba pasando porque no había razones de peso para que los personajes actuaran de la forma en la que lo hacían. Sin contar con las múltiples casualidades que se dan a lo largo de la trama, muchos momentos de "pero justo, justo, justo" que me dejaron mal sabor de boca.

?Entonces, ¿vale la pena? Yo creo que sí, sobre todo lo que les conté más arriba. Además, parte de la trama del protagonista masculino es muy buena (sobre todo lo que tiene que ver con la lucha y su pasado).

?Ah, ¿ya mencioné que en la peli suena BTS? Caso cerrado, he dicho.

Aquele cl8che de fim de tarde para aquecer o coração

"Your eyes tell" é um filme clichê, no sentido de que não há graaaaandes surpresas. Mesmo o plot da história do envolvimento dele (ainda que totalmente acidental, ou pelo menos não intencional) no acidente dela meio que já podia ser presentido para quem já acompanha k, C e j-dramas. porém, não há nada de errado com isso. O filme é ótimo de assistir, chega a emocionar o telespectador, e não cai no mais do mesmo, apesar de tudo. Achei a OST, assim como a fotografia muito boas, combinando com a atmosfera do enredo e dos personagens.
Confesso que grande parte do meu interesse em assistir a esse filme veio da música assinada pelo Jungkook do BTS, que na verdade parece mais ter sido usada como influência para escrita do roteiro e aproveitada na trilha sonora (não tenho certeza). Contudo, mesmo se não tivesse esse motivo, tenho certeza de que eu ainda iria querer assistir a esse filme e iria gostar dele.
enfim, recomendo :)
