When I saw the name, I remembered a movie mentioned by a disconnected person, and I started the first episode without reading the plot introduction with a misunderstanding of the name. I've been wondering who the male protagonist is, but at the end of this episode I found out that my girlfriend is a female friend...

I heard the name Naples a long time ago and thought it sounded smooth and pleasant, but my knowledge of the city was limited to his name. I still don't know what era happened, so just from the thoughts conveyed to me by the play itself, what I see is the extreme male control. But it seems that it is not like the patriarchal preference in our culture in a certain era. The source of male power (power) in the film may only be that men are more productive in the context of poverty, so in comparison, women do not need to suffer too much More education. The phrase "poor families don't cultivate ladies" was said when Leno's mother objected to her going to middle school. If I didn't say it, it was my summary of it.

Watching the show was full of tension, the only time I felt relaxed was the episode of Leno's summer vacation, because Lena wasn't there. But what the "talented" elder did before he left was really disgusting to me. Lena is so smart, almost dangerously smart, that it provokes some male conquest. It's still too gentle to describe those men as playboys. They are brutal exploitatives who treat human life like a piece of shit. I have the same attitude towards them as Leno, always trying to avoid their edge.

Against the background of poverty, this drama brought me a reflection on my past. I always involuntarily substitute myself into some people in the play when I watch the play. Leno went from the filthy small town of Naples step by step with excellent grades to further studies, and saw the process of seeing the bigger world. It is not the family behind it. Unconditional support. Almost every time I go to school, I have to experience the abuse of my mother and the quarrel caused by the disagreement of my parents. But there is no doubt that this must be experienced, so when she begins to contact some people with a higher level, they will feel her persistence and disappointment, as well as luck. But no matter what level she reaches, Lena's intelligence and excellence follow her like a ghost. When she was happy that she could enter high school and continue to read Greek, Lena had already read the book they used for high school lectures, and said have their own insights. So Lena's cleverness followed Leno and made him pass the exam with straight A's every time. Competing with a smart person will make you smarter. I don't like Lena's character, it's an almost paranoid madness. When she struggles with male control, she seems to be struggling with self-destruction. This made me feel terrified. I felt sorry for her fate, but when I saw her fighting stance, I felt that this person was very strong, and I felt sorry for her as if I was not qualified, so I could only look at her alone. struggle.

I have only watched 7 episodes, so I will write these down for now and wait for the 532 update

I have admired the original book for a long time, but for many years after Giuseppe Tonadore's "Time and Space Trilogy", except for football, I have not paid much attention to this "coquettish" land. This year, the twin stars will be clicked. Thinking that JOJO's golden wind and Elena's talented girlfriend are in Naples, the dimension wall is cracked again. It is strongly recommended that new dramas and new episodes be taken at the same time, the effect is better. As if to hear the publisher's "republished" cheers.

I like it so much! The color tone of the picture is gray and blue, and some comments feel that it is too depressing, but in fact, their childhood and the city are not happy memories; on the contrary, almost every month unpleasant things happen. Before the broadcast, I also thought it was unreasonable for Elena to be more beautiful than Lila, but I thought that the author was involved in the casting work, and after thinking about it carefully, I found that Elena's beauty is actually understandable and meaningful. Yes - the perspective in the book is the perspective of Elena's inferiority complex, feeling that she has acne, too big breasts, and dull hair - but in fact, maybe Elena is really prettier than Lila? Lila is chased by everyone, in fact, it is more dependent on her daring to be the first, and people with low self-esteem are always less likely to become the focus than confident and infectious people.
