      warm and sad

      I never thought that the mad Heath Ledger would act in such a warm romantic film, which completely subverted my impression of him. In the past, my impression of Heath Ledger was that of a crazy clown, a drug-addicted bad guy outside the actor, but this film changed my opinion of him. And actress Abbie Cornish's performance in this film is in my opinion the best of all her films, and even before because of the youth drama Twilight, I made her a pure idol vase, In short, what this movie brought...

      I can't go back

      the saddest thing is that even though we tried really really hard, we just cant go back.
       They are so lucky because they are the right person for each other. He is nothing, cowardly and bad life, but she loves him. She was with him, nothing was right, it was so painful, but he loved her. This alone is more fortunate than millions of people. So everything is absurd, but they are right with each other and everything is bearable. Pain just makes each other cherish more.
      The latter...

      love and poison

      I saw a simple movie review of this movie from a certain website, sex addiction and drug addiction, but more I think it is drug addiction, not too much description for sex addiction, maybe I haven't felt that point yet . Witnessed the beginning of the love between the male protagonist and the female protagonist, the love of the two, and the separation of the two. The last sentence of the male protagonist of the film did cause countless thoughts, saying that after the miscarriage, the female...

      "Candy" August 1

      It hurts to watch this movie. It's not that the movie is bad, it's that the movie is too direct to life, like the sun shining through this depressing morning fog, transparent without any subtlety, and the adultery that cannot be hidden in the light is like a publicity to the world. That is the essence of TMD love. To be honest, this movie has been interrupted 3 or 4 times on and off, for various reasons, and it was only today that I mustered my fragile nerves and watched it all from beginning...

      life, love and growth

      I always like to think about an object from the perspective of the meaning of life, and this is no exception.
        In the words of Song Siming of Wojuli, as long as people taste the sweetness of the shortcut to happiness, they will fall in love with this method and will not be satisfied with the practice of down-to-earth and low return rate. That's about the mistress. The same applies here to the joy of life. People always seek pleasure and avoid suffering. When drugs become a very convenient...

    Background creation

    The film is based on Luke Davies' novel, and Luke Davies has a long history of drug abuse. He publicly hopes that there is some emotional authenticity in this fact-based film, and admits that he has been in "that world" for several years. What the film director Neil Armfield wants to express is about people's desire to pursue happiness in any form, even at the expense of self-destruction. Heroin is just a metaphor adopted by the film....
