緣份倆面睇 Sliding Doors VCD

 

The film follows the life of Helen Quilley (Paltrow), who is fired from her public relations job. The film's plot splits into two parallel universes which run in tandem. In one universe, Helen manages to catch a London Underground train home on time, and in the other she misses it. In the first, she gets home in time to catch her boyfriend (Lynch) red-handed with his ex-girlfriend (Tripplehorn); she promptly dumps him, and meets (and falls in love with) a new man (Hannah). In the second, she carries on oblivious in a miserable relationship.

Toward the end of both scenarios, she discovers she is pregnant with her respective partner's baby. In both timelines, she ends up in near-fatal accidents, gets taken to the hospital and loses her baby. In the first scenario, Helen (knowing that her boyfriend has gotten his lover pregnant) tells him to leave her alone for good. Then, while leaving the hospital, she runs into her love interest from the second scenario, leaving the audience to speculate about the outcome of their meeting. In the second scenario (in which she catches the train), she dies in the arms of her newfound love.
