Youth is so fucked

Esta 2022-12-02 02:59:01

Students go to bed with female teachers. Muslim boys have naked girls in their heads all day long. Girls worry about which side of their breasts are bigger. Some people are unlearned and only know that they use their testicles as a bargaining chip to credit two ounces of marijuana... …This is the epitome of the youth of British children-"Skin Sac".
I accidentally discovered that this British drama filmed in 2007 was full of sex, drugs, violence, and adolescent restlessness. I didn’t want to watch it any more after I glanced at it, but I was moved after watching the first season with patience. This so fucking youth burst into tears.
This youth is unpretentious, without the slightest "flowers of the motherland" style of decoration and exaggeration. Everyone seems to exist independently, but it is a mixture of selfishness, interests, ugly use and sincere feelings between people. They are like A pile of rubbish is as disgusting as it is, but like a mirror, it reflects the reality that is too real.
And they are lonely. Casey is an anorexic, mentally ill, and drug addict. Underneath her beautiful appearance is not only a thin body, but also a mental loneliness and helplessness. She has attempted suicide three times, but she just enjoys suicide. West Germany is a child who will never let his parents feel solace. He has no learning and skill, and has the worst grades in the class. There has never been such words as dream, future, and hope in his dictionary; Chris takes drugs, Fighting, abusing drugs (sedatives, Viagra), and despising everything. In a single-parent family, his mother is a good "model" for him, but the last thing his only trusted relatives do for him is to leave him a thousand pounds and abandon him …He finally became a psychology teacher, but he didn’t know that the teacher also had a fiance who was out of town; Tony was handsome, fascinating, the lead singer of the choir class, the top students in the eyes of the teachers and parents, and the glamorous backs were full. It is drug abuse and selfish use of friends and framed ex-girlfriends.
A group of fucking kids, one thing after another, makes people laugh and laugh, but it's too explicit, too real, too damn realistic and bloody. Youth eventually becomes a balloon in their hands, which bursts at the touch of it. While we are still condemning these ineffective children, look at the families they live in and look at their irresponsible parents. Perhaps, it is not only the children that are wrong.
We always mark stories like this with an R-level restriction, just like the title "This film is suitable for people over 18 years old", but life is just a coded A film, and everyone has desires. Everyone also knows how many desires other people have in their bones. They can’t see or touch, but they know it well. In fact, R grade is nothing. What is really naked is human nature, and the stories of these children are part of human nature.
Perhaps, those who have passed youth read these stories and will miss their youth, while those who are lost in reality have the same dreams as they did when they were young. In fact, youth is a group of fucking people doing one thing after another, don’t remember it, just as the ending song of "The Skin" sings: It's all over...

The soundtrack in the film is really good, very British and very To my taste, I recommend two songs:

"It's all over"-The Broken Family Band

lead singer's tone is my favorite. The
lyrics that owe this kind of voice in this life are very artistic, so I also posted:

I could hold, your beautiful hands
And kiss, your beautiful eyelids
Throw open, your beautiful doors
And phone, your beautiful friends

But it's all over
It's all over
It's all over
It's all over

I could bind, your beautiful wrists
And shut, your beautiful eyes,
With at The Drugs, with at The Drugs, with at The Drugs
And Kick, your Beautiful DOORS in
Shame, ON your Beautiful Friends,

Cos IT's All over
It's All over
It's All over
It's All over


I would like to take your beautiful hands and
kiss your charming eyelid
suddenly open your door and
call your friends

but it's over
it's over
it's over
it's over

I want to hold your wrists
flash your pretty eyes
off your room door
to make your friends overshadowed

because it's over
it's over
it's over
it's over
it's over
