Yeah, it was about "old" time, where around 1960s. That was about 50 years ago. As I watched the movie, I can understand the story yet hard to imagine to have real meaning to younger generations.
I was caught at the tail of the "cultural revolution", which gave me certain impression yet not enough to fought and live like the old guys.
There were good about old days: people are poorer only in material not in spiritual. When a marriage is made, even out of misunderstanding initially, life lives on for a long long time. It is about loyalty and about love.
The main character, the ticket conductor girl then a driver herself, caught in the end two realms, one seemingly sweet love with the lover going to America, one ordinary yet bitter love which cost her whole live to struggle with.
The hardest part was the title, the road was not led to an obvious beautiful road as the title has suggested. Maybe in her heart?
