On the thirteenth viewing day of Dark Circles, Chilean director Andres Wood's "Machuca". The film tells the story between the boy protagonist and Machuca during the transition from Allende to Pinochet from the perspective of a teenager. Moreover, this story is not completely fictitious. There is such a person in the history of the school principal. The end of the film pays tribute and commemoration. In essence, the film is about the historical period in Chile. The hero and Machuca are the starting point for the story, a window to observe the Chilean society at that time. This bright line is the auxiliary, and the social turbulence and changes in Chile are the main. Watching this film is easy to remind people of "Dream of Play in Paris" and "Summer Palace", both of which are similar themes, and they are all about the experiences and feelings of individual characters under the great social change. The entry point for the teenager selected in this film is also a special perspective. In social turmoil, the conflicts of class nature will be highlighted, and human nature and sex are the agents for bridging the class rift. These three films have also chosen this way of handling. In addition, there are many beautiful ladies who have big butts and small waists. Left and right, left and right, politically fighting each other without delaying the pursuit of vulgar moral sentiment, this is the ideal social model. Unfortunately, such a model does not. You have to walk in unison, follow it one, two, one, left and right...

    3.5~ This is a face-slapping movie. When you think it's not bad, I slap you and tell you that you think too much; when you think it's too bad, I slap you again and it seems to be okay... Really to the director Kneel down. The propositional composition is too straightforward, is it okay to be subtle?

    Sexual enlightenment and political changes are always so similar. That year, the sun was shining and the clouds were everywhere. After the incident, the Chilean people lived normally.
