She used a gesture of denunciation of lies, immersed in a beautiful dream woven by lies.
Probably since adolescence, I have been fantasizing that in a certain timeline, I can be a girl like Penny Lane and live a life without responsibility. "Secondary in a lifetime", that's what it means.
Rock is a broken word. Still, the film evokes the goodness that rocked me in the first place. This beautiful feeling is reflected in Penny girl.
She is pure and sophisticated, true and false. She is full of primitive desires, but she cannot shake off the innocence of a child. When she shed tears for the guitar hands in one second, she can put on her cynical mask in the next second and ask with a smile: "what kind of beer?" - This scene is similar to the male protagonist in "Big Fish" in the circus The first time the group met the beloved woman, the scene where time stood still is my two favorite shots depicting a certain moment of love. The sincerity of that moment is more precious because it is fleeting.
However, cynicism is still a gesture after all. In the face of reality, there are still those stories and feelings that have remained unchanged through the ages. As, Penny and Sapphire solemnly declare, we are band-aids, not groupies, maybe more just want to convince themselves; as, the lead singer clamored for rock and roll to save all mankind, in the end, just to make them look cool. Only Lester sees through it all, and who wants to write at home alone on a weekend night rather than sharing a table with Bob Dylan, listening to people go crazy about their music, and embarking on a never-ending journey with beautiful girls.
Penny says we're just the soul muses of the music, and the next girl will say it, but we're also blowjobs for the music.
Penny said we came for the music, and the next second she said, but celebrities are more fun.
Such childish hypocrisy.
They don't want to grow up, probably because, being Lady Goodman and being Penny Lane, in fact, they are just as absurd, they have to be involved in various rules, and they are far away from themselves and each other's sincerity, and the latter is happier and more free. , more primitive, and more thoroughly false.
The band bid farewell to the cruise bus and compromised with the times. It's interesting to see a young Jimmy Fallon play a new generation of brokers who symbolize business, Fei Lun has always had a rock n roll heart.
Penny spun and danced solo on the concert floor at the end of the day.
In the mid-1970s, the hippie culture was coming to an end. This cultural feast, which was doomed to not last long from the beginning, was just like Penny's tears, short-lived, pure, and indistinguishable between true and false.

When watching the NBC black comedy "Community", I was deeply impressed by the words of the protagonist Jeff:
"The purity that needs to be isolated is not really pure."
What is the spirit of rock and roll? Is there really a line between "true shake" and "false shake"?
The director uses the form of narrative to give a definition of what he thinks of rock and roll. For the autobiographical film, it is said that after the film was completed, the director invited several old rockers to watch the film. It is said that after watching the film, Led Zeppelin, which has never been easy to authorize, generously put in four songs. The entire lyrics of the Rain Song are also printed on the back of a character's clothes in the film. I wonder if Jimmy Page smiled knowingly when he saw the guitarist shouting "I am a golden god" on the roof, thinking of the blond year who shouted this sentence.
In my dictionary, rock is a very private vehicle that provides a free territory for us to immerse ourselves in and amplify our truest doubts. However, it is only a "personalized carrier", and it does not have a single interpretation for the torture we shout, and it definitely cannot give the ultimate answer. When you are entangled in the truth itself, it is easy to fall into the illusion itself. When you start taking rock and roll seriously, it's the beginning of a void.
