      Sing Street

      Youth culture should contain a sense of rebellion, a culture that is uneasy, rebellious, and sensitive to fait accompli, such as rock music and poetry in the late 1980s. I think young people at that time had a natural yearning for and identification with these things. . This recognition brings many opportunities for the progress of this society. It's a lively culture. But today's young people basically only identify with business culture, which is a pity. Today's business...

      first love this love song

      "First Love This Love Song" is a movie about the "past". In the 1980s, Dublin, the capital of Ireland, was conservative and closed, and people's lives were boring. Young people wanted to go to London, a big city across the sea, to enjoy life and pursue their dreams. The male protagonist Connor is a high school student. His parents quarrel every day, and because he is on the verge of bankruptcy and unable to pay his tuition fees, he is sent to a bottom school full of bad boys. Connor is...

      first love

      While the film shows some of the woes of Connor's life, the tone isn't sombre. Whether it is said that Connor is a genius, or that Connor is too lucky, he can always take down the obstacles one by one, even turning danger into danger, turning enemies into friends. This setting seems too idealistic, but I don't think it's quite the case. Whether the difficulty is really "difficult" has a lot to do with our own subjective feelings. Is it difficult to get up early every day? Objectively...

      We will do what you want.

      The same is picking up girls, why is Connor different?

      1. Because the vast majority of Chinese people are still in the middle school entrance examination when they are 15 years old, they will have a bright future if they are admitted to a good high school. Falling in love will definitely be destroyed. When I was young, I didn't have any music classes, and all music classes were taken up by the math teacher. Once there are boys and girls flirting with each...

      Everyone is a poem, following the so-called rules of rhythm and tone, but I want to be a different kind of poem called myself.

      At first sight, the heart is moved, and the heart is moved. The best time is when the first thought arises.

      "First Love This Love Song" in my opinion means more growth than feelings. It is like a shining star in the night, constantly emitting light, and we are the people who will be illuminated by it tens of thousands of light years later. This movie is suitable for watching once when you are sixteen or seventeen, once when you are twenty-six or seven, and once again when you are...

      There is no problem in a John Carney movie that can't be solved with music, if one is not enough then another. But in fact, music did not solve the real problem. The school is still authoritarian, the parents are still emotionally broken, and the bandmates have not grown up. The story is weak, and many characters are taken care of but many are not fully understood. Only the brother line sees strength, just like the letter at the end of the film "Dedicated to all brothers". Three and a...

      Very comfortable. It is retro and literary, with youth and love. Is there any reason not to like...

      love it. Rekindled my passion for music. I really like that cool one sentence and not much about the rabbit-controlled Eamon who wears glasses and is proficient in all...

      It's really great, a real youth film. The rhythm of the whole film reflects the word "sorrow and joy" that the heroine said. Reckless, passionate, youthful, confused, creative... Compared to our domestic youth films, what the hell are...

      God knows how much effort I used to control myself not to sit on the theater seat and shake my legs to the music in the movie, praise the music, praise the youth, praise the rebellion2016/11/3...

    Movie plot

    In Ireland in the mid-1980s, Connor, a 14-year-old boy, transferred to a church school. As a freshman, he was bullied by his classmates and had to find comfort in music. Connor fell in love with Rafina, a girl who was one year older than him, and was delighted to discover that she was also a fan. In order to tease my sister, maybe there is a point to prove his own idea to teachers, classmates and his own problematic family. Connor, who...

    Evaluation action

    Most of the works used in the film are from the same period British bands such as DuranDuran, theCure, and TheJam. The genres are mainly punk, post-punk, and new wave. Fortunately, the film begins with a Motorhead's "StayClean", which retains a popular music scene at the time. The genre, otherwise, the most popular NWOBHM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal ) genre in the entire 80s will be missing, which would be a pity for the film...

    Movie quotes

    • Raphina: Your problem is that you're not happy being sad, but that's what love is, Cosmo: happy-sad.

    • Brendan: Did the Sex Pistols know how to play? You don't need to know how to play. Who are you, Steely Dan? You need to learn how NOT to play, Conor. That's the trick. That's rock and roll. And THAT... takes practice.

    • Raphina: You can never do anything by half. Do you understand that?
