If you want to criticize, don't find a beautiful boy to play

After watching the film, it was quite shocking. There were problematic teenagers everywhere, and I was afraid that it was too late to regret. The original intention of this film was to alert the young, but it seemed to have some counterproductive effects.

The reason for the reaction may be that the protagonist LEO is too beautiful and too inflammatory. I saw the shadow of the original work from the comments on the first floor, and realized that the story is still very deep, but once it is made into a film, so that the beautiful and beautiful LEO will perform, many things that were originally to be criticized seem to be very beautiful. There is a kind of Broken beauty. It is a bit counterproductive to make it easy for young people who are not involved in the world to follow suit.

From an entertainment point of view, this is a good movie, with a touching plot, beautiful pictures, well-performed performance, and thought-provoking, but from the perspective of the Chinese-style "entertainment with fun", it was a bit of a failure. LEO was a youth idol at that time. Not suitable for negative teaching materials, his every move makes young people like to imitate rather than criticize. The innocent eyes and pure face make people feel that all the faults are not his fault. Therefore, the original theme of hoping that others will not follow in their own footsteps has faded away.

It is said that LEO's acting skills are good, I thought so, but when I inadvertently saw a photo of LEO, I suddenly realized that he has an indifferent look and temperament, which is simply unforgettable. Therefore, it is because of LEO that the film is good-looking. Then, we all attributed this to LEO's acting skills. In fact, it's just like when we watch a fashion show, it's not about the models who walk well, but people.

Before the transformation, LEO has a temperament like orchid, sunshine and melancholy coexist, there is a kind of pure beauty, coupled with his acting skills, the characters created are truly remarkable and unforgettable.

I strongly recommend it to lovers of beautiful teenagers, it is really a sensory enjoyment; as for whether children want to watch it, this must be done carefully, and it will be counterproductive if it is not done well.

PS: The original film, JIM CARROLL, died of a heart attack in 2009 at the age of 60. It seems that "The Verge Diary" is a very old story.

    4.5 stars. The family of origin and the environment of making friends affect a person's life. If you don't learn well at the beginning, it will be difficult to make up for it when you grow up. Kind of a pity, but that's the reality. Digression: Is Xiao Lizi unable to win the best actor because he is too handsome? ? ? ! ! ! How did he act so well at such a young age!
