must be written down

After watching it today, I have to write it down. I am afraid that I will forget it. I am afraid that I will be as heartless as Jin Hao. Lee Changdong will become my favorite Korean director in the future. This film is more profound than his "Poem". Li Cangdong is worthy of being a poet. Both films are poetic. Here, the train is slowly going backwards. In "Poetry", the study of poetry is used as a sub-line. If this story is not a flashback method, I am afraid it will not have this feeling.
Fate is also a word that poets like to mention. In 1979, on the day of the outing, the male protagonist was lying on a stone, and a tear came out of the corner of his eye. It was so beautiful at that time. The first love and a bunch of people sang happily there. Later, there was a K song. At that time, he sang this song very sadly. Where the male protagonist seems familiar, isn't this crying for himself in 20 years? 20 years later, life is no longer the same. He roared on the rails and wanted to go back to the past. In fact, he wanted to go back to the day of the outing. The beauty of this day will never be forgotten.
This movie is not meant to sympathize with such a small person. I personally don't think so. Many people are saying that it is actually the male protagonist's own problem. Yes, he has a problem, but I think we should sympathize with the related situation in that situation. People, because we have also happened, but we can't mention it, so we should sympathize with ourselves and the big environment we are in.
Cry for your own poor handwriting, you can only write such shit, and you can't write your own feelings when watching the movie.

    5.0 I think this one of Li Cangdong’s films is the best. At the beginning, I thought Oasis was better, but in fact it was the time when the train that moved me backwards moved forward the most. All the details push the ending. To a point.

    Every step back is a new self-loathing, always backing off, always self-loathing. |Review of the archive on the last day of 2021, the cowardice of the male protagonist makes him the one who is most affected in society after all.

Peppermint Candy quotes

  • Yongho: Do you think life's beautiful?

  • Yongho: I don't want to die alone. I need one bastard to come with me. Just one bastard among all that ruined my life. But then... Who should I kill? It gives me hard time, you know. To pick just one is hard thing to do. The fucking stock broker who made me go clean broke? The vampire like loan shark that charged the ridiculous interest? Or... how about the business partner who run away with my money? Or should I take my ex-wife and my kid to die with me? There're so many fuckers in my life that it's hard to pick just one.
