The film starts saying “this isn’t a love story” with the 2 main characters holding hands. As an audience member, you then experience the film through the eyes of Tom, so this first scene gives you hope throughout the film that they will end up together…even though you heard “this isn’t a love story”.Summer early on says she isn’t looking for anything serious, but Tom is always thinking this is his soul mate. Even after they break up, he thinks he is going to just win her back and as a viewer you are hoping the same thing.Then this scene comes and you truly experience the heartbreak as Tom. We feel his same hope and expectations, and slowly realize the reality of the situation is MUCH different than we imagined from the beginning. And it breaks Tom’s and our hearts simultaneously.Incredible. via /r/movies https://ift.tt/7EZYncz
