And I also believe that most people are actually the same as me, and they all grew crooked properly during those lush years.
"Me and Earl and the Dying Girl", a movie with such a long title, is telling a very simple story in a 17-year-old youth: Greg, a high school student with a strong geek flavor, whose only hobby is to be with his partner Earl Paying tribute to the classic movie in a spoof way, in a certain summer, I was forced by my mother to accompany a terminally ill girl Rachel, and then my youth began to grow...
The movie is not like the domestic youth movie that loves and kills each other, crashes into a car and gets an abortion Some of them are just quiet and fresh tones, smooth and natural long shots, and some smiling tributes to classic movie memes. And such ordinary days belong to the majority of our youth.
Greg is actually very much like us in adolescence: kind and sensitive, withdrawn and self-absorbed, with some unknown hobbies, and worried about where to go in the future...
Greg confessed to Rachel from the beginning that he was being Mother forced her to come, and Rachel just reluctantly accepted her company. It was only when she entered the room that things changed (don't get me wrong!!! just talking!!!)
It turned out that she was also withdrawn and lively.
She treated me and me Earl's movies are very interesting
I don't like the decor and style of her room
She will tell me about her childhood, about counting squirrels
She told me that in the future, she must go to college and
I started to think, if she is not sick, in a certain At this moment, maybe I will hold her and start a relationship. I
can't stand the request of the goddess, and I reluctantly agree to make a movie for her.
I was exhausted, my brain was racked, I really couldn't think of how to shoot, and my studies were dragged down because of it, and my college application was in jeopardy . The
night of the graduation party, I put on a suit, sat in Lincoln, went to the hospital, and showed a movie made for her
... ...
actually it can be seen that Greg really likes Rachel and wants to do as much as possible for her. Although he didn't like the decoration of Rachel's room, he only listened to Rachel's story about squirrels occasionally, and was extremely angry after Rachel's advice to terminate the treatment was invalid, but no matter what, he hoped to accompany her, encourage her, and imagined falling in love with her The scene, making a movie for her and delaying her studies...
But, so far, Greg's adolescence has been stagnant.
And the growth begins at the end of the film: when Greg sneaks into Rachel's room, finds a delicate world in every book, understands the function of a pair of interestingly arranged scissors, and sees a small jumping up in the woods on the wall. Squirrel...
Greg burst into tears.
Her films are not difficult to make at all. In fact, Greg never really knew her.
If he could see that the squirrels in her writings were so energetic and lively, if he could know that she actually yearns for a better life so much, and it is a huge disease that has put her in despair, maybe he will really understand her decision and shoot for her The movie will not be about how love defeats cancer cells, but how a person becomes a squirrel and can live happily in the forest...
how many of us are actually like this.
What we like, what we love, is our own fictional illusion, doing things that move us, looking at others with our own feelings, comprehending pain, and growing up with this feeling.
How many times have I deceived myself in the name of love, how many times have I misunderstood others in the name of love.
In fact, understanding a person is not that easy, nor is it that difficult.
Stop selfish obscenity, contact from the heart, and learn to quietly appreciate his/her world. In fact, this is the most important thing we need to learn in adolescence.
I hope your youth does not grow crooked
