      "Sensitive Children Fall Big"

      At the beginning, I heard a strong gunshot, and then there was this battle. It was a bit of a horror movie gimmick. I had to endure it and watched the whole movie. There are many French movies on the Internet without subtitles. The editing of the film is really top-notch. Along with Thomas
      ' muttering in old age, the flash of thoughts brings back childhood... Interrupted and interspersed with the emotional journey of adulthood, it is really a sensitive child who has lost a lot.

      go to hell

      After seeing the synopsis, I didn't want to watch this film at all. After
      seeing "The Four Hundred Blows", I resisted to death this kind of emotional childhood film.
      But Mr. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang insisted on watching it, so I had to bite the bullet and watch it.
      Fortunately, the films made by the French people, no matter how tragic, are colorful and full of joy.
      We have been working hard to become the person we dreamed of when we were children.
      In the end, he became a...

      pure fantasy

      Apart from the plot
      , there are many imaginary scenes in the movie. For
      example
      , Toto, who doesn't want to take medicine, imagines
      putting a lot of nasty pills into the nurse's mouth in one second. . .
      Another example
      is the toy soldier on the shelf being restless for a moment... I

      Still love that part of childhood!...

    • By Laverne 2023-07-27 22:28:57

      Referring to the nameless people of the past two years, we can indeed see many shadows of the previous works from the director's later works. The ambiguity of the narrative; the contingency of fate; the passage from a beautiful fragment of life to an inevitable death. And the ambiguous narrative of this one is prone to ambiguity, and there is still a big distance between the gorgeous and rich infinite possibilities that no-name people offer to...

    Toto and Alice
