Excellent film ...

Nothing more than pretty pictures and A LOT of melodrama

I have no idea what I just watched, and I rewound several times because I thought I'd missed something, but no, it's just an incomprehensible story. I thought maybe the subtitles were "off," but no, they seemed to be right in the context of what the actors were saying. The film itself is mostly very pretty to look at, both the actors and the countryside of Vietnam.

As near as I can tell, two men in 1999, fall in love. One is a field worker, and the other is a "master" of some kind -- maybe his family owns the fields the other works. Their love cannot be, of course, due to prejudice and all of the other usual reasons. The wayward master son finally agrees to marry a woman, and then we skip 20 years to 2019, where the story continues.

That's really all I'm sure I understood. SOMEONE becomes the antagonist of the field worker's now heteronormative family, and this someone seems to be connected, somehow, some way, to the original master son. As the other reviewer stated very well, this someone character is a major role in the film, and somehow knows everything from 20 years before. He is too young to be the original character, and also doesn't look like him, but then the original woman who the "master" son was going to marry refers to him as her husband, which also doesn't make sense because he is young enough to be her son, yet she is also the woman who was thrown down on a bridge (the titular Bridge of Destiny, I assume), and is implied to have miscarried her original child, so I came out of the film having NO idea who this character was. Oh, and in case you missed it, this woman has heart problems. Broken, I assume.

Does this sound like a good time? Have at it then! I won't be watching this again, I know that. Find another film for the evening.
