Lost world

The past in the United States, a sad movie, it is better to say that it is a feeling of life than a movie. I saw it many years ago. At that time, because of my young age, I saw too many popular gunfights in Hong Kong and Taiwan. I just thought this movie was very dull. Moreover, it is cumbersome. After all, the original version that has not been edited takes four hours. It is close to an afternoon. What impresses me most is not the picture but the background music played by the panpipes. It feels very resentful and desolate. I accidentally saw it a few days ago. I originally planned to watch it for a while to pass the time, but I didn't expect it to be finished in one go. Some people think that Americans are very rough, but I didn’t notice it at all in this movie. The meaning of one eye and one movement is even more profound than language. However, it is not recommended for students before the age of 20 to watch it, because this is not a movie. Pursue exciting and fast-paced movies. What life is, a personal world full of friendship, love, loyalty, betrayal, moving or sadness, an American past actually sums up all these things. The bohemianness of the young Nords, the coldness and cruelty of the young Nords, and the tolerance and calmness of the old Nords are all included in just 4 hours. It may not be appropriate to say that the shortness is, but when you go through some life experience You can easily find your own shadow in this work and then you will feel that 4 hours is really short because it contains decades of wind and frost. This is a gangster movie, and it is not. A group of deviant teenagers wrote a beautiful movement with their own publicity, just as deep as his background music. They would laugh when they burned newsstands, they would rob a drunk without cash when they were paid, they would choose cakes between girls and cakes, and would angrily say that I don’t need them when they were beaten up by gangsters. A boss. . . Compared to most of the movies we have seen, the images of these teenagers are more plump and true. What impressed me the most in the film was that when the child Dominic was hit by a bullet, Nords rushed to pick him up, and then he smiled and said, "Nords, I slipped and fell..." I was comforting my partner and then died. Somehow I saw tears staying here, but I knew I was not crying for Dominic, but for my lost youth and all the most precious things. Dominic may be lucky, he lost only his life, but the protagonist lost love and friendship Trust and his most precious years, he was left with only one body in the end. When he was young, he was lying on the door with blood on his face and shouting the name of his lover. The closed door remained motionless when he was young. When they opened the storage box they shared before fleeing, they found nothing in it. When he was old, he saw his friend Marx, who he thought had been dead, but found that his favorite woman and the things he had cherished the most were all affected by this." The most loyal" friend took it. Sadly, the protagonist finally let Marx go. His image was fixed in the middle-aged opium hall. He showed a weird smile in the smoky space. I don’t know what to think of. This laugh is not making people happy. But to give you a pain that is completely unforgettable.

    Too beautiful. I like its narrative method, which is interspersed with young, middle-aged, and old people, and the handling is very mature and capable. The soundtrack is great.
