The types of films I like are usually literature, art and suspense. The film itself is the art of light and shadow, and I think the charm of this art is to integrate what the director wants to express into it, so that the viewer can enjoy the process of watching the movie. Inspired. That's why I hate fake stories that tell you how ugly life is or how beautiful it is? Deceiving tears or telling you that life is full of beauty is deception in the same sense in different ways! Even elementary school students know that real life is full of good, evil, beauty and ugliness, not just one-way.
The great thing about this film is that youth is not just a small and fresh, ignorant boy and girl with colorful bubbles or some ugly appearance of blood cancer abortion incestuous love. This film, which has become a semi-autobiography of Uncle Takeshi Kitano, tells the growth of the two teenagers. The poetic film narrative style and nostalgic tone make the film naturally exude a sad and lyrical temperament! Tell you that this is the true appearance of youth, cruel but not lacking in beauty!
At the beginning of the story, it was a normal student life, skipping classes and fighting against the teacher. With the development of the plot, when I was immersed in the sadness of the separation of two good friends, the plot reversed, and they each achieved success in their new lives. At this point, you seem to be able to foresee their vigorous ending of their boyhood, and want to bless them. However, they ended in failure, and they drifted away from their childhood dreams. The fact is that when you are full of confidence and think you are invincible, you find that life has deceived you! Only after you remove all the illusions, life will reveal its true appearance. Although it is not what you want at this time, no one is powerless to resist.
I have to say that the soundtrack is amazing, and the combination of sound and picture is amazing.
The connection between the beginning and the end is not abrupt. At the end, the classic scene of riding a bicycle is used by Jia Zhangke. Even the uncle himself used it in his short film "Beautiful Holiday" many years later!
Attached the ending dialogue
Xinzhi said: Pony, are we finished?
The pony replied: Stupid! It hasn't started yet!
When a teenager who has experienced setbacks and tribulations is riddled with holes, how strong his heart must be to give such an answer!
