They are all ordinary children with young faces. Because he is young, he is always proud and unscrupulous. I love their expressions so much, they sparkle like a shallow river. They can easily say words like I love you without being pretentious or pretentious. In fact, they are really happy because they never grew up.
Clouds drifted across the sky, from bright to dim. Like the turbulent Lomo photo wall on the road, it shocks people with the most monotonous scene. Watching the clouds drift by, thinking about the days when they are floating around like this, it's like we move mechanically until we sink into the ground.
John. He has angelic blond hair and a fair face, but unfortunately he is not a good boy. Skip school, skip class. He didn't want to go to school at first, but was forced to come to school by his father. There's nothing wrong with school either, I think it's just boring
Elias at best. A child who loves photography, his camera is his gun, and he never leaves his hand. He photographed everyone, classmates, friends, strangers, and murderers. He wants to make a photo book of his own, which is a dream.
Michelle. She was fat and dressed blandly. I know the embarrassment of fat girls better than anyone else. It is always the most painful time to change clothes. The unintentional teasing of a beautiful girl can also stab her severely. Maybe it's because the family doesn't have that much money, or maybe it's just because she doesn't have friends, she goes to the library every day to help with her work. Does she want the days to go on like this forever, giving her even a dash?
Nathan & Carrie. An enviable and jealous couple. Freshly baked campus couple. You can love and flirt unabashedly, regardless of the occasion or location. Gossip can't separate them, but death may be an exception.
Eric & Alex. They are just silent, or they have only each other for company. Being bullied by classmates at school, bear with it.
Brittany, Jordan & Nicole. There will be such beautiful girls everywhere. They always like to stay together. It seems that friendship is better than Jin Jian, but in fact, it is easy to disappear and part ways.
Benny. If he can, he is a hero. If not, he goes to see God. He might be a good guy, but he's a fool.
The clouds in the sky are still surging tirelessly. The clips in the movie are the hours of each child's day. Those shots are wandering and staggering. I could follow Elias, Nathan, Michelle the long way, plain, plain.
The film is based on the famous shooting at Columbine High School in 1999. No preaching or overemphasis. The sight of the sight is nothing but ordinary life. Even the so-called violent games are not bloodier than CS. What the director pursues is nothing but the most realistic and restored narrative.
I'm guessing who will pick up the gun.
Eric and Alex, they hug and kiss each other. The water was rushing on their white bodies, and they were still children, so they were lost. Walking into school dressed as Counter-Strike is like a virtual game. The children who were still sweet or melancholy just now fell down without a cry. Slowly, blood seeped out. They used to live the most ordinary high school life until the moment of death.
Death cannot prevent the existence of estrangement, and the true story of youth has nowhere to be placed. Adults always want to stereotype their children, and they want to live in a cover, thinking it's safe. But the sadness and the past of those youth, only I know.
I like the way the director shoots. He just narrates slowly. All the answers need to be found by yourself. The answer is sometimes like an elephant: Even if it showed up in the living room, people either pretended it couldn't be there, or thought it wasn't a real elephant.
Liu Yun and "To Alice". Flow slowly.
