It is better to be alone than to be happy

This is my favorite way of directing movies. The quiet, indifferent, innocuous narrative actually hides turbulent emotional waves. I know that a slow-paced movie like this will be spurned and disdained by a lot of passionate movie fans. It's as if I once recommended Kishishi, Yasujiro Ozu, "August Photo Studio", and "Jack Goes Boating" to others, and the answer was: I really can't stand it. Hehe, yes, uh, there is a lack of disturbing and heart-wrenching plots, and a lack of eye-catching handsome men and beauties. Since then, I seldom have the idea of recommending the best products to others, and I just laugh at the so-called luxurious visual feasts recommended by others. Everyone has selfish intentions. For what they cherish, Zhonglele is not as good as Dulele.
