    So cute, eh? Why does it remind me of the Fallen Girl in the End of the World. . . So the two girls are a bit...

    Why some people always have good luck and some people never have. Youth is beautiful, ignorant and frivolous. Monica's entangled love has finally lost to reality. Human nature, society, and life have never been so simple. Monica's dream (symbolizing youth) has finally been...

    Really bad enough, enough to do. The lead actor is also charming, but I don't think there's anything too good about this movie. It doesn't feel meaningful. almost fell...

    A moral drama, it is indeed a cold and serious Nordic film. Maybe you once thought that the princess was very beautiful, and maybe some princesses also felt that they were beautiful, but it didn't prevent it from turning into a capital tragedy; "I'm ugly again...

    It's a good-looking romance film, full of idealism. In the end, the boy is poured cold water by the girl's "reality" and selfishness, and there are only good memories of that summer. The young woman's body is projected on the big screen, it's so beautiful! Although it is an old movie 4:3 ratio, the composition of the photography is very...

    The bad girl Monica's "badness" mostly stays on the character level. Monica is lively, outgoing and straightforward. She dares to shout with her parents, dare to run away, and dare to love. The betrayal of her married life is a reflection of her hedonistic consciousness. Monica once said that she hoped to marry Harry, have children, and live a stable life as a housewife. It would turn into a thorn, stinging the innocent memories of that...

    The restored version had an explanation from the director before the screening. It was the first movie he watched after he had a DVD player. He confessed that he fell in love with the heroine Anderson. No wonder he was so erotic and sexy. Fisher's photography captures the scenes of escaping the boat from reality extremely beautifully. Looking back at the male protagonist's stupid growth, the two of them stared at the camera and sighed that love is short and life is not easy. The wonderful lines...

    No matter in looks or figure, Monica may not be considered good-looking. But the beauty she exudes can't even be "good-looking". Monica's beauty is not so much about her own characteristics as it is about the movie itself. That provocative face to the camera = close-up of our gaze... the naked body walking on the rock, the plump buttocks in the trembling back... the raw visual touch that no other art can...

    It's not bad when you're a girl, but when you're a young woman (it's still a girl in age), it's completely changed. So marriage is imprisonment, marriage is not freedom. However, for the male protagonist here (most of the boys at this stage, I think), this means responsibility and growth. In that romantic summer (with a boat as home and wandering the world), the girl who loved her deeply was like an image in a mirror, waves in the water, and a dream, and then she woke up.
