the last winter ending explained

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. Also, if they were both in the afterlife, I'm sure Young would get 100% of her sight back. There is one final moment after Joels first moment, and its arguably one of the most important parts of this episode. A verification email has been sent to your new email address. And the wind finally stopped blowing! 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. I really love him. And where you buried my brother, or which river you spread his ashes at. Either way, I did really love this drama. When Hee-Sun and Jin-Sung were talking about visiting Soo and bringing Lamb's ear flowers, they were talking about real brother Soo; visiting the river where his ashes were spread. }); Its a crushingly oppressive movie that should make you feel uneasy. 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. Not even good enough to watch again for in site.. Jin-sung seems to think so as he stops running and starts crying, with Moo-chuls minion nearby to share in the grief. Now shes looking toward the future, to when theyll meet again. First off, where did this apparition come from, is it an illusion created by the fumes from that white box? When members of a remote Arctic drilling site begin behaving oddly and show signs they're potentially going insane, the few unaffected workers try to get the others to safety before they come face-to-face with the source of their condition. I'm glad that this was my first. No surprise there especially after MC was redeemed, shown to be running interference all along and Wang was let off the hook which was crud. I was hopeful in the beginning, because it started with NHK doing her empathy-building magic with Soo's character, and to a lesser extent with Young's character through the video diaries. I loved how Kim Bum's character broke out of his loyalty and had that crazed, red rimmed look after he stabbed Oh Soobut then..wha.? By rejecting non-essential cookies, Reddit may still use certain cookies to ensure the proper functionality of our platform. They're both crazy beautiful, I want to cry!! (Seriously! In these final moments of The Last Winter, Fessenden effectively emphasizes the very real horrors of environmental destruction, bound to leave the stench of death in the Soo chaotic and rushed and nonsensical. If that was for Oh soo's grave then why it is on the table? Throughout the game, our perception of Ellie shifts somewhat as we begin to empathize more with Abby. But then she adds that if she lives through her surgery, theyll meet again, and finally talk out their issues. Maybe you can pretend her long hair is a wig, LOL. Having Soo say he made a mistake is kind of the show telling everyone to forgive her. So any drama that shows someone trying to kill someone will probably involve a knife. Hee-sun sees Soo off for his big gamble, after which he plans to go to the hospital to see Young. it's out of topic but I have to disagree that it's a porn movie, it is sexually graphic yes, but those are used to show how they become lustfully needing each other and to INCREASE TENSION as we go to the part when the deception was caught in the act (we can see their progress of being indifferent to each other up to the point that they're comfortable to do all the positions they want). I will have to agree to disagree on the ending. I'd rate this above "Nice Guy" but below "I Miss You". Synopsis. I beg to differ . I just watched it tonight 13 years after the above question was posted. The thing is, I really don't think it was done for fanservice. I can accept this ending though I wished for a happier one. I'm in dramaland and i want the happy ending of course. Some power that be wanted a happy to make viewers happy. Kiss symbolizes love and forgiveness. I took the time to read Liera's but I didn't know how to respond. Flowers were for the grave. I do agree with you that how we got to that light at the end of the tunnel was more important than the light itself. Why is everything so blurry? Watching that drama made me want to be sure not to take any of my loved ones for granted, to look for the good in each person, and to sing Kumbaya (just kidding). As for Soo, I mean, dude got stabbed not shot. The collapse of the environment has brought about the end, making this final framing and camera perspective cleverly placed. The Last Winter (2006 film) Jump to navigation Jump to search. 2006 thriller film by Larry Fessenden. The Last Winter is a 2006 thriller 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. I mean, if you want to commit suicide, don't you really slit your wrists (BOTH of them) and get in the water for maximum bleeding? I was anticipating this one especially, because I was curious about what you thought of this episode. BOO-mother-frikkin-HOO. This leads Abby to open a nearby door, to find a hospital team member hanging still from the ceiling. I think the idea of ''the best friend as a traitor'' does make sense in this plot. Stabbingthis seems to be used a lot. You got your money, whats wrong with you? The American oil company KIC Corporation is building an ice road to explore the remote Northern Artic National Wildlife Refuge seeking energy independence. As things progress from bad to worse each succumbs to their own belief with wild and unpredictable results. No, I actually think it is genuinely impressive. A single broken vile of urine, yellowing the cold tile. I'm glad I watched, but I wish it had held the awesome all the way through. I decided not to count Youngs full head of hair as part of the equation since I considered it a vanity issue, despite the fact that brain surgery and long-term chemotherapy should produce some visible, physical effects. She listens, as in it, Soo tells her what weve heard him say before about how his outlook on life changed when he met her. The bad friends, the conniving fiancee all forgiven and even rewarded, what a message to send to the public. Well, he already knew he wanted her to stay with him (forever), so why not have her answer then and there? 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. [4] The idea of stranding two people with radically different outlooks was subsequently incorporated into the film's ending. Even if OY couldn't forgive OS at that moment, they could have still talked, I thought. It can't be heaven either, because they would've just MET each other. Not Soo asks her if she cant see, and she responds by asking if hes ever met a blind person. Nice Guy and TWTWB, both the male protagonists were stabbed, but they survived, right? 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. Fessenden introduces North Corporation, a government-backed oil research and building team, working under the watchful eye of two environmental experts. He struggles to his knees as we pan to the shoes of the man who stabbed him, the trembling man holding the knife, and up. I don't count it as a story fail because it's well supported (Wang was always shown to love and support Young) but it's so weird! We really don't know what happened when Oh soo was stubbed by Jin Sung. (And we don't know because we don't see anything alluding to that). | 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. But that's really the only thing I wonder. His being a gentleman is one thing I admire too as seen in the bts. The atmosphere of coldness, emptiness, isolation and the resulting paranoia are captured The ending was real in my opinion. Oh and I forgot to add. var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; There was a time when I liked watching her because I expected things to change, and when they didnt, I couldnt understand why we would be expected to be on her journey no matter how much I wanted to be. Nothing made sense in this ending, i dare say a couple more deaths would have made it more believable, Oh Soo included! Just Abby in an open room. I think that is what the writer ment. He stumbles back to camp that night traumatized, just as the others are about to head out into wastes to look for him, claiming that his radio had been not working. I agree with you all the way! Yippee, a happy ending! This drama ranks highest on my melo-meter since the only others I've seen are Nice Guy and I Miss You. 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. Admittedly, I am not a consistent person. I honestly couldn't watch Jin Sung in that final scene on the tractor, I was so angry with him still. The art part is just an excuse for porn. but the 'open' ending is so well done, that whenever, however I feel, I could say, ok, Soo is dead or ok, this is a happy ending. Even then it wouldnt matter, since Boss Man wanted him dead, but why? (hahah). i don't think dreaming would be like that. That or she'd better return on jtbc. At one point or the other, I kept viewing as some kind of Stockholm Syndrome on Young's end, the way she just also seemed to care for Wang even though what she did was horrible. :(, HAHAHAHAHAH! Beautiful settings and looks, characters with deep scars and flaws. Ill try to remember the good times, and Ill be sure to remember that through you, I discovered Jo In-sung. The few action scenes are hard and fast and have more of an impact if they had been wall to wall from start to finish. He might cook too, but I didn't strike me as anything fancy. Young made it thru surgery. I know, hard to believe. How is that brushed away? I believe that if we are to see the end it wont look anything like weve come to know or expect. The American oil company KIK Corporation is building an ice road to explore the remote northern Arctic National Wildlife Refuge seeking energy independence. I see. So, you never know right! We shouldnt have to go through what a character is feeling in order to understand them if that were the case, how could I understand the plight of second generation chaebol princes or cross-dressing nuns joining an idol group if Ive never been in those shoes? The Last Winter is eye-catching, effectively inciting fear among its viewers of environmental damage and disaster. I was so in love with it until that forced kiss and then it basically took a giant swing downhill. It's the memory of those far superior movies that make this one watchable at first. You made viewing this beautiful drama (scenes, actors and soundtracks) even more memorable. Awards Its not over between us, she says, echoing his line from the video. I think Jo In Sung really out did himself here and would watch it again. well probably what heads meant was that since she underwent a brain surgery, at least part of her hair had to be completely shaved prior to it being performed.. JIS, who I will forgive for just about anything! Her tears finally spill over as she stops the video, even though Video Soo seemed to have more to say. I was hoping for a more straight-forward ending, but I'll take this too. The ending was open ended. According to Gailing, Virgo deifies details. Secondly, the blurriness, the bike, the cafe, and the final cherry blossom scene is played in Young's mind. Despite the continuous chaos that sears through the film, one of the standout scenes comes at the very close of the film. Blurry. Now after years of negotiations and behind the scenes dealing the advance group from Northern Industries is preparing the way for full scale drilling. One thing I'm going to disagree with you on Heads is the sentiment of Young's suicide attempt being "merely" a cry for attention, because that's what all suicide attempts are. However, weird events happen trapping the group in the base. Another obvious thing was the discussion between jin sung and jung eun, they were obviously reffering to his grave (why didnt they get married as they planned if things settle down?) Heads you are one hell of a writer. Out of all the melos I've seen, this one is definitely the most satisfying. So if we get a time leap, then we're also fast forwarding the course of the disease but why is Young's vision clearer? js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; I enjoyed the feisty and whiplash smart Young in the beginning of the show and then her character just went downhill with the suicide attempt. Maybe this is how she sees redemption or growth. The atmosphere of coldness, emptiness, isolation and the resulting paranoia are captured perfectly. I felt like he was significant butI guessnot. That said, I've never had a brain tumor killing me. The scenario with the child and sec wang of course was only a part of the scne that it should be clear. They talked about making Jin-sung betray his friend, but the way they chose to do it didn't make any sense whatsoever. And most of us realize that some time in the near future we are going to have to adapt to using an alternate fuel source whether we like it or not. But he had some charisma so that got brushed away at the end. Even though I love Soo, the constant surprise-knifing is becoming its own parody at this point. Young notices that her pre-surgery breakfast smells better than usual, only to find that Secretary Wang returned to cook it for her. Ron Perlman and Connie Britton were the only ones acting. I am not wedded to reality, because, hey, it's TV. However the group is divided into so many different factions(the company man,the conservationist,the spiritualist etc. It looks like the writer got tired after a few episodes and, especially in the end, realized there were things to be told, so they had to be smashed to fit into the general picture. Otherwise she's hanging out in the afterlife with her ex-fiance. I was also wondering, why shouldn't have JS hanged up on HS? ALL the characters are wooden. Like it's sometimes distracting. | I hope you like me when you see me after the surgery, he jokes lightly. When I watched the ending, I was really angry at first, because I felt that I had been totally manipulated to create some sort of artsy-fartsy ambiguous ending, logic, story flow, and characterization be damned. Why show, whyyy?? Oh, Heads, if you have just discovered Jo In-sung through this show, I would recommend you The Frozen Flower. We knew it would be, but it hurts to see the crazed look in Jin-sungs eyes as Soo hauls himself up to eye level. (I frowny-faced at that, honestly. Could you please make sense? It's what sets this drama apart from the movie version which was a neat package in itself but i felt the drama extended and explored and fleshed out the characters on a deeper level that made me - with the exception of Sec Wang (whatthehell show- she made her blind, i don't care how well she can cook)- connect with the narration as a whole. Jin-sungs betrayal was so out of character. It seems to me that Ron Perlman either chooses dreadful movies to appear in OR puts a jinx on films in which he appears. The camera clearly focused on him, when he was on the ground, stabbed, after the flashabck he had his eyes were wide open for like seconds. or We could care less what's being done to the Earth, our atmosphere or our fellow man as long as we have reasonably priced gas to fuel our vehicles. It never felt like the characters were tying to be perfect or anything. 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. The ending scene is that of the only surviving researcher, Abby Sellers, waking up alone in a deserted hospital with no recollection of arriving there. You got it, boss. Yep! I also like how she explains things, we get to see her thought process and I am grateful for that. By far the most breathtaking place on earth, and still the most magical place I ever visited - and probably ever will visit - in my life. Did the CCTV goons end up getting him because his promise, in a sense, broke (to let Soo & Jin Sung go unscathed)? Wow, now that "winter" has past, I can finally breathe. Isn't that what melos are (partially) made of- gut-wrenching decisions? And when he turns around he gets stabbed. After watching the last ep, even though we got the happy ending, I felt that it was a frustrating journey. He was always morally flexible as were most of these characters. that he doesnt need it anymore, all while Young stands at her open window, ringing the glass bell as he leaves. That's the best way to describe it honestly. Doctor Sun-hee treats Young at home, with Lawyer Jang and her closest friends watching nervously even as Sun-hee declares that Young will be fine when she wakes up. Sex is a natural part of our life and that is artistically shot and they are just depicting a natural human behavior to get aroused and be lustful, because if you don't then you are not normal . Thank you all, and thank you HeadsNo2 for your recaps. There really wasn't that much plot, when you come to think of it and it makes sense, why it was a 2 hour movie versus a 16 hour drama. The revelation at the end of The Last of Us Episode 1 suggests that she is somehow immune to the effects of the fungus infection. I'm confused with the ending. hmmm i thought the flowers were for the real brother Soo? Warning: This story contains spoilers from season 5 of New Amsterdam. Now that was a great ending.
