    4.15 Forgot to mark Alain Delon's handsome face. The different life experiences of the four brothers outline the situation of ordinary Italian families after the war, and it is more interesting to see "Sweet Life" in the same year. Two classes, one decadence, the upper layer is sweet decadence, the bottom layer is bitter decadence. Simon's transformation is distressing, Nadia's love and hate is even more distressing, and Roco's atonement mentality is the most distressing. Bad boy sky learn this?
