      Are you chasing dreams or love

      A good film, I saw my life as a series
      . 3 The
      first half an hour after I finished it, I was tired from reading and reading. I just watched it
      without subtitles. Sometimes the level is poor. I probably understand what's going on and then I downloaded
      the subtitles. Let’s take another look
      at them
      . The boy who chased the dream shines instantly.
      We have all kinds of hobbies,
      good and bad, healthy and unhealthy.
      What’s important? The most important...

      What do you want to say

      Even with Ralph Fiennes and Cate Blanchett starring, it is difficult to conceal the thinness and confusion in the form and content of the film. The narration resembles a biography, but there is no need for the connection of clues. It is as loose as several The movies are pieced together, without knowing what the author wants to express.
      I thought the focus of the film would be on how to get rid of the temptation of gambling, because the plot where the two met because of gambling is still...

      Cherish life away from non-mainstream

      [1]
      Oscar and Lucinda were definitely a pair of non-mainstream young people in Australia in the 19th century. Since childhood, Oscar risked his father’s disobedience and converted to the Church of England, which was expelled by the people. When he grew up, as a pastor, he was brought into the gambling circle by his friends. A glass church, and sent over by water; angrily and impulsively hacked to death the head of the guard. Lucinda didn’t like to study since she was a child. To put it...

      Once again, it shows that the film adaptation of the novel is stretched. It's not that changing the characters' personalities or the plot itself is infeasible, it's just that the limitations of space and capacity make the film always look...
