I insisted that this was the "motivational film" I needed.

I admire the almost perfect fusion of so many clues and perspectives, narratives, monologues, flashing memories, photo freeze-frames, and the interweaving of various colors, but I also dislike this apparently multi-angle but as if it came from a single person's voice, which is poetic on the surface. Many issues are avoided, such as the reduced substance of see, such as childhood. So what moved me was actually the background of this education, a weak compassion and ideal, and powerlessness.
Detachment quotes
-
Henry Barthes: Whatever is on my mind, I say it as I feel it, I'm truthful to myself; I'm young and I'm old, I've been bought and I've been sold, so many times. I am hard-faced, I am gone. I am just like you.

Henry Barthes: Y'know you can't... you can't keep living on the street...
Erica: I'm not, I mean, I'm staying here with you.
Henry Barthes: Well, you can't continue to stay here with me. I'm not good for you...
Erica: That's not true. You're like, the only family I've ever had...
Henry Barthes: Well, I can't be your family, I can't give you what you need. You have to understand, you should be...
Erica: You're good and gentle, you're the most kind... I love you Henry. Don't let them take me, please nooooooooo, you're all I have, please don't let me go.
