HONEY BOY

At first, I was curious about Shia LaBeuf just because I saw the short film "Love me like you hate me" on Vimeo. In it, he and Margaret Qualley performed a pair of lovers, showing a pair of lovers in love with actions and limbs. The state, the kind of intimacy that is twisted and afraid of losing is like a cycle, they are intertwined, longing for separation and longing for FORVER, just like any relationship. So I wanted to know more about him, I went to see HONEY BOY, I couldn't stop crying, when I watched this movie, I felt like I fell into a conscious time when I was a child: 1999-2014, When I Was Fifteen The cycle of time, I went back to the past, looking at myself at that time, the childish little girl, the scars left by the past, I found my peace.

I like HONEY BOY: The little boy sits on his father's motorcycle and the sunset shines on them. He opens his arms and hugs his father's waist. The desolate scenery is passing by, and his father has a lot of expectations for him.

But he's just the clown in the movie, like the rooster that runs through the movie, the Stupid Jokes dad talks about, the child star who shows dad is a loser and son shines in Hollywoodwood, dad tries to take control of him, teaches His self-righteous worldview, I just felt that although my father loved Honeyboy, he couldn't help but be jealous of him, because no one liked him, women didn't look down on him, he was an alcoholic, or a Rapist, and he was a rapist. For example, his father was the object he looked up to, and he learned to smoke. The father is overprotective, cynically pushing those who are represented by the bourgeoisie: TOM, the successful person in the world's eyes into the pool, also represents his resistance to it all.

Gradually, this passage comes in: 1. The father is arguing with the mother on the phone, scolding himself for working hard every day just for this boy, and it is also revealed that he nearly raped her mother and forced her to jump out of the moving car So the boy smashed the car in the abandoned parking lot. I think he should have felt that he was redundant at that time. He was the culprit. If he hadn't survived, the pain would not have happened.

Otis smokes alone

2. The girl next door he met in the swimming pool hugged him and warmed him, he was her only warmth.

The two of them get along without talking, just playing those finger games, without talking or complaining, they perceive each other, I like the role played by FKA so much, with his cool little personality, mysterious but full of warmth

Ending: Dad says to son: Nobody's mad at me

In fact, in the end, everyone finds their own Peace

Otis ends up on the road with his dad on a motorcycle

3. Favorite movie lines:

just give me a fucking cigarette, dad

The sound processing in this section of YOU is great

The only thing my father gave me that was of any value is pain

The only thing my dad left me was pain

A seed must completely destroy itself to become a flower

Violent but meaningful

I'm gonna make a movie for U, dad.

4. Those details: At the beginning, Dad was planting plants, shoveling soil, and later found out that he was growing marijuana

That's why when he was in a therapy group, he said to a speaker: Man, I thought if god was real, he built me ​​with a only question I can answer, and that's what you got to do, you got to answer that question, you got ultimately save yourself, and suddenly left cursing in anger. He was reluctant to go to Save Himself.

His son held hands with him, he let go after a while

The black friends that my son met in Rehab when he grew up actually played a role in curing him unintentionally. He felt that all this was wasting his fucking time, he was stuck there. But he inadvertently talked about his own watch Brother spent eight whole years in prison, seemingly inadvertently, but he was actually telling him that you were not wasting your time.

    Extremely depressing. Every child can't decide whether or not he wants to come to this world and what kind of family he wants to go to. They are the most innocent and helpless individuals in this world. Why have children if a person can't even take care of himself? Isn't it bad enough to be yourself? Why let the kids suck with you? While watching this movie, I felt depressed and angry but didn't feel sad, but a little brother sitting next to me kept crying and wiping his tears, and he kept wiping his tears on the way out after the movie . This guy really makes me feel sad and makes me want to hug him and I don't know what happened to his childhood. As a friend of mine once said, some people's childhood can heal their whole life, and some people are using their whole life to heal their childhood. Thanks to my parents for giving me a childhood that can heal me for a lifetime.

    Very personal script and expression, the morbid father-son relationship is actually a love that is constantly and unsolvable, Noah's performance is amazing
