watching the series out of order.


I can currently only get my hands of the "white" film.

Can any one give there opinion on whether it is ok to watch the films out of there intended order.

Do they rely on each other much?

Thanks...

They can be seen in any order. It's nice to see Red last, but it really doesn't matter that much.

There's nothing that won't make any sense if you see the films out of order, but there are characters who pop up in the other stories for a few seconds, that kind of thing. All that will really happen is that you won't recognize them with no harm done.

Still, I think seeing them in order is still the best...you could probably see either 'Blue' or 'White' first without much of a difference, but seeing 'Red' last is preferable, considering how it ends.

I know it's supposedly supposed to be in the order of...Blue, White and Red...but that doesn't add up...(to me). It seems Red happens before White... so it would have to be Blue, Red and then White last. :)


Spoiler... don't look if you haven't seen the movies yet... :)

The rescue in Red HAD to have happened before the White story....since she goes to jail...and he goes into hiding...because he is supposedly 'dead'. So... how could they be rescued After the white story? They had to be rescued before their own White story even happens. In the rescue ...at the end of the Red story... they announce Karol as business man. But when the white story ends...since he's dead...he's not a 'business man' any more. How would he have a business ...being dead and being in hiding. He doesn't even 'exist' anymore. If he was being rescued... and it was after the Red story... it seems like Karol would be using an alias name. How would she...who is in prison...how would she be there being rescued too? In the rescue...they don't appear to even be a couple yet. So how could the rescue in the end of the red story take place After his 'death' and after her going to prison? It had to be Before the whole white story. So Blue, Red and White makes the most sense...(to me) :)

Hm...but Karol Karol wasn't a businessman before the beginning of 'White;' he just cut hair. Although we never find out how (and it must have been some incredible series of events), I think the only possible interpretation was that he reappeared in public, his wife was therefore released, and they were reconciled. Maybe that was the final part of his plan all along?

I saw Blue first, then Red and then White, all years apart from each other. They stand as complete individual films on their own, even though there are some vague connections. So, just take your pick.
