Family is a bitch

At that time, the accent and speech of all people in the world were the same.
When they moved eastward, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
They consulted with each other and said, "Come on, let's make bricks and burn them through." They took the bricks for stones, and the lacquer for plaster.
They said, "Come, let us build a city and a tower, whose top will reach into the sky, that we may declare our name, lest we be scattered throughout the...

A fierce life, no explanation needed

In fact, this is not just a "wild lily has spring", or "a fierce life needs no explanation" movie.

It tells the love story of a social fringe and a woman with cerebral palsy because of her reckless behavior and immature thinking.
Lao Luo once said that a fierce life does not need explanation, and further explained that there are only two situations he will explain, one is the misunderstanding of friends and relatives, and the other is involving the law, and the male...

Oasis: about people deprived of language

Some people say that such love is impossible, and I will argue that if human beings are a species born with disabilities, then such love will only be the only possible love in the world.
My basic understanding of Oasis is that it is a story about people who are deprived of language.
Whether it is mental retardation or cerebral palsy, these are disease carriers that present aphasia. Perhaps the choice of a cerebral...

Strange Love "Utopia"

Now I find that I am a fan of Li Changdong, so realistic and so delicate, I like a person is a preference, and I will automatically choose his movies to watch.
I also found myself particularly fond of marginal and bottom-level stories, as in "Returning Home", "Of course, in the spiritual world, I still belong to the world I grew up in when I was a teenager, because I will never be able to emotionally identify with the...

The loveliest people have the purest love. An oasis that only good people can see.

On the way to the snowy mountains, I finished watching the oasis. I didn't listen to what the tour guide was saying at all, just put all my emotions into this movie. There were a lot of people in the car, the sound of the movie was very low, and I needed to put the receiver in my ear to hear many lines. But it was enough to entice me to watch it.
The name is very meaningful, and the oasis was originally a painting from the hostess's room. The latter is used to express the oasis...

A/ From the first connection between the flying pigeon and the light spot, the two parallel worlds in the film are opened. It still uses the simplest techniques to transform the simple narrative, and then shatters the ordinary romance to the core of reality. It still uses emotionally rich characters instead of logically superimposed plots as the most important support to complete the jump from shaping to criticism. The story of being a "returner" is already several ranks higher than that of...

6.5 Li Cangdong, the most affectionate movie, still has outstanding characters. He has endless snot to blow, and she has eyes that can't be gathered. Men and women love, naturally, but society can't tolerate their nature - so in the end there is no shadow and no...
