Life and death depend on fate, but why can't we stay together.
---- Comment on "Mong Kok Carmen" I

saw an old film. Although I have never figured out the relationship between the title and the plot.
When I was a child, I liked to watch this kind of film. A group of people fought and killed. It looked like a heroic hero, but after all, it was a heroic shortness of breath. The actors in this film are always familiar but can't remember their names, except for Hua Tsai and Maggie Cheung.
The memory of Maggie Cheung is Wong Kar Wai's "In the Mood for Love", the lady Wang who wears a cheongsam and walks very beautifully. The foolish woman who said to the phone, "If you have one more ticket, will you take me away?"
Mongkok Carmen, the name is very nice. Probably because my attainments are too shallow to understand what it means.
The plot is just that type, underworld, and then a beautiful woman.

Fragment one.

A cup story.
In the film, she hid a cup in his house and said that if one day he needed it, she would call him. There is also something profound in this. That night, she knew that he was broken-hearted, but he forced her not to say those two words. He didn't want to admit it and didn't want to face it, because he was a person with no tomorrow, and he didn't dare to promise, so he lost because he He is a man who works hard with his life. He is too rational to be crazy. So, she was telling him. If one day, when he needs her, he must inform her. She might be waiting for him.
And the fact is that one day, it was raining heavily, he met the woman he once loved, and the woman told him that she was married. Her husband treats her well. The woman's body is light, and she doesn't have the appearance of a woman in the past. Relatively speechless, he ran away again, his back was a little embarrassed and a little helpless. The pattering rain completely washed away the nostalgia for the old love that still remained in my heart. So he found her. He told her that he had found the cup. but saw her with her doctor. Therefore, there is no more language for him to express, only. escape.
I think he must have been very remorseful and annoyed at that time. If he wasn't the way he is now, if he wasn't a gangster, if he had a stable income, then he could be with her. But if this is the case, will he not separate from his ex-girlfriend, or will he fall in love with her. Therefore, life is always so tangled, a mess, and it's chaotic.
She called him and said, waiting for her at the dock. At this moment, I am in a happy mood. They all say that love is something that makes people lose their senses. Sure enough, being able to be with the person you love means abandoning everything, and it is worth it. At that time, even if he was a person with no tomorrow, she would be with him. Live and die together. At least, that's what I think.
At the end of the film, the moment the bullet was shot into the back of the head, the scene of him and her kissing in the phone booth suddenly appeared, but at that time, it was the moment when he was on the verge of death. The heart is also beating for her at the end. He opened his eyes and looked at the blue sky again, because in the next second, heaven and man will be separated forever. I can no longer walk side by side with her and lean against the setting sun. No more, kiss and hug. Never again, see you.
Life, too many crises. Death is too heavy. She loves so relentlessly. In the end, it is because of admiration, because if it were me, I would definitely not be able to let go of myself to love, and I probably wouldn’t fall in love. I have always been a little woman who covets comfort. I hope that the person I love is safe. I hope Our life is beautiful and full of sunshine.

Fragment two.

brother.

The male No. 2 in the film is named [Fly], and as soon as he hears it, he knows that he is a mixed society. But it is also human. I don't like him very much. Although he is the male lead's younger brother in the film (the kind of brother on the road), I have been thinking that if there is no such person, should the male lead and the female lead watch the water grow? If it wasn't for him, the male protagonist would not have taken care of him again and again. If it wasn't for him, the male protagonist would not have died at that time. If it weren't for him, maybe I'd be able to see the big reunion I was looking for. However, from another angle, this assumption cannot be established, because he is the thread that runs through the whole drama. Without him, the heroine would not understand the life of the hero. Without him, the heroine would not cause trouble because of seeing that piece. Blood-stained clothes make me nostalgic. Perhaps, he is the red line between the male and female protagonists.
When I saw the male protagonist being beaten because of him, my heart ached. It is distressing and unbearable. Although I know it's just acting, it's all an illusion. But it is also unable to stop the admiration derived from the bottom of my heart. Seeing the traces of blood oozing from his white vest and the blood spurting out of his mouth, I'm not that great, so I can't understand what kind of sacrifice this is, what kind of brotherly love. So, the second male has such a big brother, he must have no regrets in this life.
In fact, when the male protagonist came to him and told him not to try his best not to be stubborn, he said to the male protagonist [OK, let's go back]. At that time, I really thought that he would back down. Although it was not a good thing, it still showed a person's courage, courage and ability. And he finally chose to escape his sight to fulfill his promise at the moment when the male protagonist turned around and didn't pay attention. At that time, he must have known that he would not come back alive, so there was parting and reluctance in his eyes. At this time, I actually understood him. I could understand that a person like him was eager to be recognized. , eager to be powerful and eager to be admired, just like he said, he would rather be a hero for one day than a bear for a lifetime. So he chose to make a cluster of fireworks that were fleeting in the air, but could not be remembered for a while.

The film is about a dark part of society, the underworld, and the shooting. And it was these little emotions that moved me.

As Tears Go By quotes

  • Wah: I did a lot of things for our godfather too. By the age of 14, I was already getting paid to kill. I've got more guts than most guys, right? But look at me now. I'm just an ordinary guy!

    Fly: At least you were a hotshot for a while! But what about me? What about me? Everyone looks down on me. Does that make you happy? People think I'm nothing, like some stray dog just following you around! Did you know that? I'd rather be a hero for one day than go on being a fly all my life!

  • Wah: I just wanted to say...I found that glass.
