      There is a kind of sadness, called turning over the clouds and overturning the rain


          In any case, this will be a purely American youth film worthy of savoring and thinking about. In this square inch of the world, everyone lives without principle. Everyone takes drugs, promiscuously, and leaves school to waste. The highly aggressive Sean spends all day dealing with dangerous drug dealers outside the school and numb drug addicts on campus. , The only comforting thing is those blue love letters. The sad thing is that they are not from his sweetheart Laura. Although the...

      Youth is about sex

      "Cruel Temptation" The Rule of Attraction, Roger Avary's
      translation may be to distinguish it from the "Law of Attraction". Roger Avary is one of the screenwriters of "Falling Water Dog" and "Pulp Fiction". This film also embodies what he calls the "Pulp Fiction + Graduate American School" style. Among the films that reflect youth and sex, this one is quite outstanding compared to American school, European sex travel, and sex is empty. Non-linear narrative, a large number of body shaking...

      Cruel temptation

      When Roland was thrown up and filthy by an unknown man, she no longer had to read books related to sexually transmitted diseases to abstinence, and she didn't need to use her pure mouth to solve the desires of her mentor and her own credits, and her youth was ever since. It stopped abruptly...In

      The law of temptation, cruel youth

      "What you see is fornication, what you don't see is the sadness in my eyes!"

         Fornication and sadness, two incompatible words, are unified in the "Law of Temptation". But looking at the endless parties and sex scenes, you would think this is another "American Pie", but it is not. Unlike the superior and frivolous yellow-haired boys in "American Pie," these guys in "Law of Temptation" are people who know life and reality. Therefore, the same kind of fornication on the surface is only...

      The ultimate theme is that promiscuity will not end well. Although everyone has someone they love, in the context of the era of frequent promiscuity, the weakness of human nature has to be exposed. With a little restraint, the ending of several people will be different. The girl who committed suicide in the film is a bit of the Chinese...
