life should be like this

4 and a half stars.

Some movies, after watching, always want to applaud.

It should be my first time watching a black-and-white movie in the theater. I got used to it after watching it for a while. It's pretty good.

Compared with the "Why Home" in the same period, the dragon label version of this film basically has no deletions, which can be regarded as a surprise.

It didn't take two hours at all, and I finished it in a while.

Sometimes life is a running account. Under the anti-climax, the movie-watching mood is very subtle.

Under the attack of Hollywood blockbusters, cinema films need to be adjusted somewhat by art films.

"I wanted to make this movie. Because I knew I had to make a movie like this in my life, even if there was no audience."

I think it is probably one of the wishes of many directors that the director will come back to make this kind of movie after he has finished the Hollywood blockbuster. Alfonso Cuaron should be very satisfied.

Some people are not very satisfied, they don't reflect the big from the small, maybe they want more sublimation? But I like it that way.

Private images belong to the memory of that era. This type of movie is certainly not able to satisfy most audiences, but there must be a lot of people who like it.

I don't know if the form is greater than the content, or whether it is showing off.

But I think the photography is very good, the opening picture is a bit amazing, and I like some of the shots.

Details, metaphors are more. If you don’t read a lot of movies and don’t read movie reviews, some of the pictures will not be easy to understand.

Although the film is very objective, rational and restrained, at the end, it is still somewhat moved.

It's a pity that this movie still doesn't resonate with me much.

(I don't know why, after watching this film, it reminds me of "Happy Lazaro")
