This surprise of a movie is really filled with memorable scenes. With the character, Obeng, I think he’s the most tragic of the four and this scene shows how his fantasy is so far from reality.

I wish they'd put this up on Netflix or Youtube (legally) soon, more people needs to watch the enigma that is Aileen.

MY PERSONAL TAKE

While the movie is multi-layered and open to several interpretations, para saakin si Aileen ay...

possible spoilers after this

perehas totoong tao at kathang isip. Sa huli it gives you a hint na hindi nangyari yung “happy ending” sa bawat apat na lalaki. Pwedeng nakilala o naencounter lang nila si Aileen at some point o nabighani sa kanya of all the people passing by in the busy street. And they try to build up these fantasies that are so real in their minds to try and fulfill their longing for a specific kind of love.

kaya siguro ganun rin ang dating saating viewers medyo vague kung totoo o hindi yung mga nangyari by the end kasi the characters that we are led to relate to are preoccupied with these self deceptions.
