      There is always a little bit that reminds you of your youth

      Yesterday, my junior high school classmates posted photos of that year in the WeChat group. In the photo, I am thin and young. Shakespeare said, "There is a time when boys are lean and thin."
      But boy at that time, or what would you think at that time? This movie tells you that.
      You see, you are confused, wandering, lose your temper for no reason, try to get acquainted with other companions, even ask the companions you just met to take in (accept the companions you just met), try to...

      There are more than 100 kinds of porridge in the restaurant in Guyuan tonight. I drank a bowl of acacia porridge.

      , I have no such experience, why is it so touching? The name is very poetic.

      With the love complex, sometimes, when I hear a song, or read a poem, there is a sense of the past.

      Go together to see the older woman you like. The two of them are fourteen or fifteen years old.

      gotta do something

      Somers Town" Sean Meades' representative work, this is the youngest black and white film I love, and the best British film of 2008. Although the film's story is not as bizarre as a Hollywood blockbuster, and although the beautiful London scenery in the film is nothing new, the friendship between a teenage Polish immigrant and a runaway child in the film is memorable. . And its black and white tones also make this kind of dull youth even more emotional. It can be said that "Sumers Town" is the...

      enviable youth

      A friendship in London begins with falling in love with the same French waitress. Two 15- and 6-year-olds, one Polish immigrant and the other Nottingham. The former is silent, shy and calm, while the latter is talkative and outgoing and restless. The two children have a strong personality contrast, but it does not affect their friendship at all. I don't think this experience will happen to us, for two reasons:
             1. Nottingham people run away from home to London, I think you must have...

    Evaluation action

    Somers Town on the black and white picture is quite shabby. People in the same block seem to be nervous enough at any time. The polite British tradition has become alienated, and the old gentlemen there are even a little rough. In this environment, this relatively innocent friendship, to a certain extent, is somewhat in line with the advertising themes that Eurostar originally wanted to convey. This movie is similar to "Day and Night...
