Protect the little boy in his heart

A friend recommended this movie two days ago. After watching it at the time, the first impression was that most girls would not like this movie. Normally, this movie should be slowly fading from memory, but when I went home to clean up, I found a lot of Childhood objects, those old memories came to my mind for a while, and I suddenly understood this movie.

The most ridiculous thing about human beings is to talk about logic when they want to talk about feelings.

People have high expectations for this film, such as me, the previous trailer was explained by a college writing teacher as a creative film case, so disappointment is inevitable. I give this film 3.5, 2 points for creativity, a huge brain hole for the director and screenwriter, and resonates with the director's childhood memories, but to be honest, the plot and dialogue can still be more innovative; 1.5 for Uncle Adam.

Creativity is needless to say. The things people were most familiar with in the 1980s were "Little Bee", "Centipede" and "Pac-Man". It is estimated that many people burst into tears when they first appeared. That was the lost youth. A big brother is discussing the gameplay of "Pac-Man". But I was expressionless at the time, because the post-90s generation was actually a little unfamiliar with these things, and I still knew the name thanks to my uncle, but that was not my world. Movies, books and music itself will not move you, but you are moved by yourself. Those resonances and understandings must be supported by common experiences.

There are so many movies that please women now that the term "chick movie" appeared, watching the screen full of "Little Fresh Meat" showing off his muscle group CP, watching "Long-legged Oppa" crying "Sarah Black Yo" every day It is absolutely impossible for this kind of thing to happen in real life. But when you talk about them, they will say what do you know, have you read the original book, that is the youth of the old lady. In this case, why can't the otaku start their own carnival and save the world by themselves?

1.5 points to Uncle Adam, Uncle Adam is actually the person around us. Mid-life crisis, the hairline is getting higher and higher, the wife and children are gone, and every day I wear a happy orange dress and dress for TV for a living. I want to comfort and kiss a female customer when she is lost, but she is directly rejected, and then Saying the most typical language of straight men "Don't you think I have no money, if I kiss you on the yacht, you would have already done it", with the appearance of Uncle Luther, which seems to be out of tune with science fiction films. But such a person is indeed the arcade champion of the year, and finally saved the world. The super contrast is cute. This kind of setting is super-sense.

Every girl has a little princess in her heart, does every boy also have a little boy in her heart? It also made me reflect on how I treat the men around me. Let’s talk about my dad first. My dad was my dad when I met him, a stable and mature dad, and I don’t know anything about his experience before he became my dad. When I flipped through the photos, I found one. My dad was wearing flared pants, long hair, thick bangs, toad mirrors, carrying a guitar on his back and looking at the camera with a sad face, just like a country killer. I used this photo to laugh at my dad when I was a kid, and my dad was very embarrassed, as if he was ashamed to talk about his experience of killing Matt. But when I got more empathy, I went to ask my dad the backstory. Only then did I know that my dad was less than 20 at that time, and his heart was full of pride. He sang a song and discussed with a few friends about a trip that just went away... Just wandering a few provinces with a guitar, there are also Some happy Jianghu feeling.

All of a sudden, I remembered the sentence "The male-dominated society hurts men who have no rights and women who have pursuits." But we are ordinary people after all, and maybe we will spend our lives in a hurry before we discover our talents. In the past two years, we are now talking more and more about feminism, and there is no one to represent ordinary men. Who cares about the little boy in their hearts?

He also once wanted to defeat the dragon with a sword and save you from the tower. ; He also wants to step on the colorful auspicious clouds and add a 10,000-year deadline for you; he also wants to turn the tide and save the world by himself.

But as he grew up and the boy grew into a teenager, he realized that the little boy in his heart couldn't do whatever he wanted.

"You're a boy, you have to be strong, you can't cry"

"She's a girl, you have to take care of her, can't you let her order it?"

No one cared about the Lego castle, and the teenager buried his head in the heavy weight In the scroll; defeated the dragon and stood in front of the castle, only to find that the goddess had endless baths and endless sleep.

Then the reality is cruel and scary.

"I'd rather sit on a BMW and cry than laugh on a bicycle"

"I love you, but I can't see the future. Look at who is who and who is now. I was really blind back then."

The little boy banged his head in the adult world and grew into a man. I finally understand the rules of the world, and I can finally talk and laugh. If you know that you should not wear white socks when wearing a suit, you know the difference between the top, middle, and bottom notes of perfume, and you know how to make girls happy.

He should also be happy, but at midnight, he suddenly woke up and remembered the people who were in the dormitory together at this time more than ten years ago. So it was born, I want to make a movie of my own, for my own people.

After the movie was broadcast, the two girls got up and muttered, "What's this filming, the cliché plot, it's so boring", the little boy smiled slyly in the dark, this is my youth, my tribute, Belong to our mad cry, what do you know.

May all the little boys find the person who lets you show your true nature, who can be vulnerable and unscrupulous, just as before.
