      Can't figure it out

      I can't figure out why the young generation who likes rock and roll strongly opposes the Vietnam War? What is the relationship between ego and selfishness? GABE's act of burning the flag is really too much, no wonder his dad is so angry. As a result of such a tragedy, his mother meant to blame his father, and of course his father also blamed himself. I'm thinking, if GABE can think normally now, he should blame himself more, not only for that crazy move, but also for his stubbornness, walk away...

      Have you found your dream yet...

      Was watching "The Music Never Stops" and I haven't finished it yet, I don't know how it will end, but it gave me memories at this time, so I stopped. Perhaps sometimes the greatest reward of a film is to lead your mind somewhere, and there, pain and joy, are covered in a thin mist, with the mysterious beauty and faint smell of tobacco of memories or dreams.
             Gabriel left the home he loved and hated completely after his father smashed his room. I remember when my father broke my...

      music never stops

      When Henry persuaded the doctor to agree to take his son to the show of the Dead China Band, he said, "My son has been lost for 20 years, it's my fault, and now it seems that he hasn't come back. He has received treatment but can't be found." Going back to memory, but as long as you listen to music, you can remember the past, I may be the oldest Dead China fan you have ever seen, but if there are other bands that can let me communicate with my son, I will become their fan too, Yes I'm 65 and my...

      Music connects the memories of parental love and motherly love

      In order to help his son Jaberly regain his ability to remember for a long time, a stubborn and old-fashioned father, Henry, begins to accept the psychedelic rock of the 1960s that he completely does not understand and is contrary to the music he loves (and then completely memorizes every song of the Grateful Dead. song and every lyric), what I see is the various efforts made to make up for the mistakes I made 20 years ago and regain the father-son relationship: in order to have a better...

      Rebellion is because of the generation gap

      J.K. Simmons is a good fit for this macho, controlling parent or teacher role. For example, the teacher in "Blacking Drummer" and the parent in this film. There are many such parents or teachers in China. I really like this kind of high-definition free video, you can watch it online, it's awesome. I hope all videos can be watched online for free, in high definition and smooth. Full pension, great. Why use a record player when you have a Walkman? His son has long hair like a woman. College is a...

    Movie plot

    Henry and Gabriel are a father and son. Their common preference is music, but their musical tastes are quite different, and differences in politics lead to the reason that Jabery is running away from home .
    Twenty years later, it was reported that Jaberly, who was living on the street, was sent to the hospital to undergo a brain tumor removal operation. After the operation, his mental state was demented and slow. Because the tumor has...

    Background creation

    Ludwig van Beethoven said that music is a bridge between the spiritual world and the sensory world. When we hear a piece of music, it will naturally lead to many memories. The romantic music of the prom, the melody of the first date, and even the touch of the young and frivolous attending a live concert, each of us will respond to music, and music exists in every cultural society. It evokes our memories, childhood memories, and even...
