Created the power of life, but also created love, created a home, created this thing called "life". A man without a home, a few broken loves. It turns out that the trivial and disturbing family life is the best defense against loneliness. Ordinary people should have a thought in their hearts at any time, and it will always hide behind the current busyness to give you peace or peace of mind. But you always feel that the "heart" is not tame enough, don't you? There are too many thoughts jumping out of your mind, making you overwhelmed and hard to tell right from wrong. Do you think you are the master of your heart? The heart is like the ocean, you or your thoughts are nothing but waves on the ocean. In fact, you know what the "heart" wants, but more often you pretend to ignore it. You have many reasons to pretend to ignore it, and you will eventually be punished for this dishonesty. Halfway through the movie "Broken Flower". Every time the protagonist Don drives to look for his former lover's current residence, the camera moves all the way, passing a house in a warm rustling sound, and then stops in front of a wooden house. Although everything in the house is unknown, the hostess opens the door and watches for a moment. Always get Don's name right. I understand that as long as I have been in love, there will be no traces. Whether the reunion is a surprise, hatred or peace, it all corresponds to that distant life. Love, what a good thing it is! Don, you are old and your hair is gray. Are you not alone watching boring TV alone? Don't you cry when you listen to a sad song alone? Aren't you excited to hear that you might have a grown-up son? I know you never pretended to love them, there are your sad tears and the most beautiful pink roses on the grave of the lover who died unexpectedly. I guess you'll have a good talk with Sherry. Maybe she wrote that letter. She's seen through your seemingly tough heart. Don, love and home, what a good thing! Don't be afraid of trivial troubles, don't care about conflicts and quarrels, "As long as it is love, it is true beauty, and it has the value of acceptance." 17.8.13 Not a movie review

    Jarmusch was able to shoot this boring subject interestingly, and the old man in Lost Tokyo wore a sweatshirt with a lonely expression as always. The journey of haunting Ethiopian music made him seem like a down-and-out Don Juan. He bent down and put down pink flowers in front of his former lover’s tomb, and then whispered hello, beautiful. He just felt that time flies, and the answer is not important anymore.

    Jia Muxu’s imagination of society is quite small and fresh, like a middle-aged new concept composition, Bill Murray is not like Don Juan and turned into a computer tycoon, but like a proud social animal who doesn’t want to be honest. Because modern people have no ownership of themselves, they can only mechanically implement the set procedures. However, what is going on, finding a child has become a literary journey, Lolita Carmen appears in turns, pink like the North Star guiding the reverse An affair, an awkward reunion releases a real loss. In the endless car window view, emotions have recovered their sorrows and joys. I don’t know who it is, anyone can be, only the cold street, only echo-like names, dialogue and colour. I suddenly thought of the flower shops that used to open in front of the Shanghai Film City. They are also like broken petals, scattered in the neat plan. Some stories are finished without revealing the answer, but let you understand the mystery of life.
