Talking to someone in a coma, NJ observes, is like praying: You're not sure the other party can hear, and not sure you're sincere.
That's the thing about life: You think about transgressions, but a tidal pull pushes you back toward what you know is right.

the people in "Yi Yi" live considered lives. They feel committed to their families. Their vague romantic yearnings are more like background noise than calls to action.
