Think about what you will be like in 5 years? Get
married, have kids, be like everyone else.
Maybe that's what you want.
Maybe not.
The difference is when that train is about to leave the station.
You, have the courage Jump up?

Bruce is the best at anything. Fighting is the best, doing bad things is the best, and pissing off the police is the best. It's like a ticking time bomb that will explode at any time. Eyes closed, because his father was his best friend. But Bruce's stubbornness finally made him unable to bear it: "You think you are James Dean in ? What's your rebellion? Don't like it here. Get the hell out of me! No one's stopping you!" Bruce's usual cowardice answered him: "I will. I'm leaving." Even though he's been talking about it since he was 15.

Freddie maybe He is the most ambitious. His life must not be like his father's. Every day he leaves the factory dirty and earns a salary that will never be enough. He wants to become his idol, Mr. Kendrick, on his own. work hard, make a lot of money, live in a mansion, and drive a good car. For those who grew up in Cemetery Junction, this is a great dream. Because this town is so small, it can be ignored. All the people who grew up here Most people are mediocre and dull for a lifetime, except for Mr. Kendrick. He worked hard to move towards his goal, but was ridiculed by Bruce: "You'll never be like them."

Snork is a Loser in the standard sense. Every time he opens his mouth, the chicks are scared away by his unsustainable stories. Without Bruce and Freddie, he'd probably just live his boring life alone. He has no big pursuits, just thinking Find a punctual girl to have a good shot. He even designed a tattoo to encourage himself. But the tattoo didn't help him much in the opposite sex: the only restaurant waitress in the town who could see him, He never looked down on it.

Julie was born into a wealthy family. As the daughter of a regional manager of a well-known insurance company, she doesn't have to work hard for her life, she just needs to learn how to be a good wife and mother. She hopes that one day she can travel the world like her sister and bring her beloved She told Freddie that England is so small that she can now sit in a Paris restaurant and eat snails 5 hours after leaving. She also taught Freddie an old Arabic proverb: "Put your heart out Throw it forward, and then catch up with it." But as a woman, she can only get engaged to her father's capable subordinates, and then concentrate on waiting for the arrival of the life of husband and son.

Days pass by, and life remains the same. If there is

no insurance that made Freddie but ruined the dream of a loving couple, all Freddie's thoughts and doubts about the meaning of life will not be settled in an instant; if there is no determined Freddie to invite, Bruce Will not summon the courage to leave. Encouraged by Snork, who has always had no opinion, the three good friends decided to go out and explore the world. Before leaving, Freddie went to say goodbye to Julie. He wanted to thank her for the words she told him, which opened up his original Blinded by a narrow heart. However, looking at this girl who is about to enter the dull and uninteresting life of her mother, and who longs for freedom in her heart, Freddie can't help but ask: "Would you like to leave with me?"

However, control Bruce, who couldn't keep his temper, threw a punch in the face of the man who provoked him, even though he had decided to leave tomorrow; The hearts are connected and they decide to stay; but Julie, who has always been a good girl, has never been able to muster the courage to pursue the life she yearns for. Freddie is alone, carrying luggage, and standing on the parting platform.

Fortunately, a cup of tea at breakfast finally made Julie see how terrible life would be if she stayed to live the kind of life her father and fiance wanted her to live. Bruce understands that his father, who has always been scorned and despised by him, is so great. Therefore, one decides to leave, and the other decides to stay. Those who leave want to have a richer life, while those who stay are because of restlessness The restless heart finally found a foothold. In the

station, with the blessing of a friend and holding the beloved girl, Freddie bravely jumped on the train that was about to leave the station.

, a British film. I thought that the film produced by the director of "The Office" should be a pure comedy. Unexpectedly, it is a youth film. We have grown up, and the prince and princess live happily ever after. Not suitable for us. But this film is like a fairy tale dedicated to all post-adolescent young people. Unlike the pretentiousness of American youth films, this film makes everyone feel as if they can find their own shadow in it , true yet warm.

Cemetery Junction, the name of the town, is also the intersection of life. How to choose whether to leave or stay? The cruelty of reality and life makes us look forward and fearful, and the wonderful world of the world is in Keep tempting us to leave. "Throw your heart forward, and follow in its footsteps." Yes, follow your truest desires and do what you want to do most. No matter what the outcome is, at least we have Bravely tried.

If the world's having another party and we missed it because we're here.
So, when are we leaving?

Young, doesn't it allow us all possibilities?
So, let's go! While we are young.
