It's kind of an old story...

Remember An Education? Change your background to a slum in a small city in the UK, and then push the time to after 2000, and you will find that in the UK, the way the cunning uncle deceives the ignorant loli hasn’t changed much for decades—just sweet words. The unruly uncle no longer speaks elegant French and pretends to know Lewis Carroll by the way. As long as he shows two rows of big teeth like a (blonde and curly) big shark and smiles, Loli's family would be lucky. The sudden turn and the snow made it worse.

It’s worth pointing out that even if you consider the repetition of themes (*this kind of* films can be produced twice a year? Oh please. But considering the production cycle of independent films-Umm...well. Everyone's life is gone. It’s not easy), Fish Tank is still a film with style, ideas and plot: the performance of rookie Katie Jarvis is really eye-catching, and the debut performance completely calms the whole film, although it lacks star-studded big names. Collectively (it’s hard to say that Carey Mulligan’s Oscar nomination was not due to the difference between various dramas/veterans in one respect), but as long as she is willing to act in the future, it should be said that it is also very promising (of course 18. It’s probably not a good idea to have a baby at the age of = =); the little actor Rebecca Griffiths who plays the little sister Tyler also performed very well, but I don’t know if it’s because of my blindness or because the child grows so fast that I won’t see me after a while You will feel that she has grown up a little bit; as for the big shark Michael Fassbender who is biting on the smelly and hard rock of the independent producer, the image of the strange uncle/good dad who speaks softly is charming, but the first half is charming. There seems to be a little bit of contrast between the meticulous and considerate care and the ruthless and unspoken shrinking in the second half-but if in reality, I am afraid this matter will not have a more logical transition.

Listening to the California Dreaming that constantly appeared in the film, I remembered the days when I listened to this song every day during the rainy season in Nanjing, when the sun was not seen once in half a month, although the film used in this film is not The Mamas & Papas that I listened to at the time. The original song (estimated to be unable to pay the usage fee), but Bobby Womack's version, but it still makes people very emotional. The shining sun in Los Angeles for eleven months of the year makes it easy for people to forget the depressed feeling of moldy weather, moldy clothes and quilts and moldy mood every day, but when it comes to the depressed things at that time, they may not be in this life. When there is another chance to be depressed, words such as the impermanence of the world and the passing of the white horse are always indispensable.

We may always dream of sunny California, but most people can only get to Wales, which is more hazy and rainy. No, I told you at the beginning: it's kind of an old story.

But so is reality.
