Land of Broken Hearts

- Manic pixie dream girl x ordinary man
- Leads break up for a duration of the film
- Both are pretty and artistic

- Unusual, atypical, and strange (FC is more like a fairytale, LoBH is heavier on the surrealism)
- Strong romantic connection between the leads that guides their motives throughout the entire film
- Manic pixie dream girl x regular guy (more prominent in LoBH)
- Both are very pretty and artistic movies
- Sci-Fi/Fantasy (LoBH = Sci-Fi, FC = Fantasy)
- Focused on fate, change of fate, and higher beings toying with human lives

- Manic pixie dream lead x regular lead with a mundane life
- Both leads bond in being able to experience something the rest of the world cannot (both leads can see the audience in LoBH, both leads have synesthesia in Frequency)
- One of the leads vanishes after changing the other's life forever

While both of these productions aren't alike in terms of plot, both were directed by the same person (Wen Shi Pei) and both have the same surreal and trippy vibe to them
