Wes Anderson is truly a genius in the film industry! Having seen his masterpieces, "Crossing Darjeeling" and "The Grand Budapest Hotel," I was fascinated by his amazingly stylized films, which were always singular, twisty, unconventional, and with a refreshing sense of comedy. Today, I saw another masterpiece of his, "Rushmore", which is really a wonderful work in the movies about youth, and the imagination is beyond imagination. The heroine has a special and moving affinity and attractiveness, while the performances of the leading and supporting actors are quite outstanding, and the swords are slanted and fascinating. Take a line from the film: "I think you just gotta find something you love to do and then do it for the rest of your life." Forever Young!

"Youth and Youth" is an atypical youth film, simple, easy, fun, and has a good temperament. The autobiographical nature is quite high. One of the most disturbing Anderson movies I've seen so far. The sense of form is rather weak, and the aesthetic application is not yet mature. But the emotion is the richest in Anderson's movies, and the dialogue is also the most in Anderson's movies. If you don't look closely, you can't really tell that this is a Wes Anderson movie. Perhaps Anderson's essence is like this. An extremely idealistic youth, but he will inevitably be defeated by setbacks when he sets out on the road with his ideals. Therefore, he will have innocence and beauty in everything, and have a kind of expectation. cruelty to life. As Rimbaud said: "We don't take it seriously. When we were seventeen, the place where we walked was full of green linden trees."
