Picture
This is a film about growing up, about betrayal and trust, about father-son relationship, about family relationship, about love, about love, about justice, about friendship. 主角是个十四岁的少年，有着最典型的美国面孔，最典型的美国式的沉默——不爽就来上一拳，初中的毛头小子为了心爱的女孩敢揍高三的学长。There is no feasting, no loud music, and even the scenery at night is in dim lights or bonfires. There are enough movies that do not rely on special effects or scenery to attract people.
This is a film that pursues justice, the murderer may also shine with justice, the righteous may have an imperfect life record, and the adolescent Ellis is immersed in the light of justice. Even in the most ordinary life, the most ordinary people cannot escape the shackles of morality, so this is also a film that explores morality. There is no shortage of trust in everyone's life, which seems to be the most important symbol of the American spirit. i promise. We may not be able to understand the weight of this sentence. I promise seems to have become a dispensable spoken word in our lives, but in the United States, every i promise is followed by an expression of determination or pain. Behind it is the power of ten thousand dan weight, a word with moral power that has nothing to do with good people and bad people, the food that Ellis delivers at night and the stationery that results from his hands, bear the responsibility of the entire adolescence.
This is also a movie about friendship. Ellis recognized this friendship at first sight. From the beginning to the end, he was not scared away by Mad, or questioned by the police, and there was not even a lot of verbal communication between them. , but this inexplicable and incomprehensible friendship has become the whole of his life, and he and his partners will sacrifice everything for this friendship. He even became a thief for this friendship, an uneducated thief in the eyes of his father, which was the most profound time of Ellis in adolescence. Ellis learned of Mad's anger after he lied to him, and the power of the pain after betrayal, the power of pure trust.
This movie seems to be calm, a bit like Winter's Bone, a story of a "country" girl looking for her father. The movie is too lively and conflict-free at the beginning. I define it as a star movie, but often Beneath the calm lies the power of great waves. The plot is when Ellis learns that he has been tricked and accidentally falls into a river and is bitten by a poisonous snake, erupting like a volcano. Mad, who seemed to be a liar, rushed to the hospital desperately; Mad and his girlfriend's relationship turned into a helpless beck at the end; the father's calm eyes and marvelous marksmanship saved his son from danger in the sound of gunshots at the riverside hut. ; Mad desperately hoped to say goodbye to Ellis on the hospital bed; after the fierce shootout, Ellis forgot that he was in a hail of bullets, and cried Mad's name to the climax of the movie. Perhaps Ellis is not only longing for this friendship, but also contains more growth, life, and perception of life.
The end of the film is slowly advancing on the slow road. Ellis is sitting in the back of the carriage, his eyes are full of bricks and tiles of this town, full of ships beside the road, and his face is full of life experiences. After the satisfaction and expectations, this fourteen-year-old boy learned the most important lesson in life during this vacation. At the same time, Madd's boat was steadily moving forward in the Mississippi River. There was a large patch in the cabin, but it could not stop the direction of the boat. My father asked Madd to come out and take a look, because it was endless. On the river, it is an endless life, a life where the sun shines on the green grass and prosperous life.
No matter how reluctant you are, the riverside cottage is still demolished after all, the beloved girl is a dream of adolescence after all, life is still moving forward, Madeleine is with you.
