      long-distance robber

      The protagonist of "The Robber" is a robber who loves long-distance running. He has broken records and gained fame and fortune in long-distance running. The robbery left the police helpless and gained wealth. But these are not his goals. Long-distance running and robbery are like drug addictions that he can't stop. The protagonist's dialogue is not much, and his expression is numb, but his eyes and actions show his empty inner world, even if the heroine's care and accommodation cannot make him...

      John, run slowly and let the lobes breathe

      The name of the protagonist of this movie is also called John. I have always been name-blind when watching movies and reading books. Every time I can only call the protagonist of the story with "a gentleman" or "john", well, in this story, john ran to death .

      This Western European movie comes up with a bluish-grey face, the sound of john's running, the prison, the rare dialogue, the tight and urgent drum beat, the mountains far away, the realistic landscape characters, and I almost...

      I like the way the director handles the contrast between movement and stillness.

      There is very little dialogue in the whole film. The actors basically rely on their eyes and expressions to express their hearts. The director does not introduce the background of the protagonist, but can make a little guess from the dialogue with his girlfriend; of course, the director does not introduce the reason why he keeps robbing banks. Perhaps running at the moment after the robbery can bring him inner peace. From the electrocardiogram and the sudden getting out of bed in bed and...

      Hans: A Side of Forrest Gump

      When watching this movie, I often think of Forrest Gump, Hans and Forrest Gump run the same, but with different results. Hans fell in love with speed and excitement, successfully escaped after repeated robberies, and pursued a pure and eternal sense of movement. Forrest Gump, on the other hand, is an instinctive reaction, which seems to be a state of reaction of life. His running is even more blind. Forrest Gump does not have a complete understanding of society. Facing the death of his mother,...

      Because we can !

      Because we can! I

      recently watched an episode of "The Big Bang
          
          Theory " that had a particularly profound impact: the heroine penny asked the hero what leonard and sheldon, raj and howard were doing? They replied that we are using the computer at home to send the signal to the Galileo Space Center in Europe, and then reflect it to the space satellite in outer space. On the desk lamp in the home, the lamp will automatically turn off the light after receiving the...

      I think this rhythm must be related to the support policy of European films. The details are so fine, but the whole thing is the same thing, but I have to say that it is a good film, and it can realize the creation of this subject with sufficient conditions. It's a great...

      Because I am a long-distance runner, after reading the whole article, I feel that the protagonist may have made himself such a tense life over and over again because he did not want to stop his footsteps and his heartbeat. . . I don't want to see myself die of old age, I'd rather die in a wonderful way. ....
