road of life

Didn't know it was a David Fincher movie. Beautiful shots, great soundtrack. The actors are in place. A road movie of life.

A few good situations:

1. The girl took a ride, but no one answered. After seeing it, the old man wanted to take the initiative and knew that the car was too broken, so he was embarrassed to take the initiative to invite, and lowered his head for a moment. There were no questions or answers, no chattering, a quiet night.

2. When it rained heavily on the road, there happened to be a canopy, and life was smooth.

3. The bicycles passing by on the road are the young people passing by themselves. What are the advantages of old age and what are the disadvantages of old age.

4. The lady of 13 deer a week, I love deer. But I have to go back and forth every day on this deer road that descends from nowhere. Painful man, let me use it as a decoration.

6. Firefighting can be practiced, but it still cannot save the destiny that should come. Rose is a good mother, but life doesn't trust her. Lovely couple, give you a kiss and you can be a nice guy. Hug, I'm not a good person because of your kiss. I love the way you love me. I also love the way I love you.

7. Brothers can quarrel and laugh, but they cannot cut blood. We can be together, but we can't help loving each other.

8. The cemetery, coming soon, finally coming.

9. Even the last bit of distance to the final destination will not be too smooth. Stop, wait, and before you arrive, there's always a little problem, like: I don't know where you live.

10. Oh, it's here, it turned out to be here. For better or worse, you are here. No matter how far, I will come to see you. No matter how long, I love you.

First departure.
Little red for little green.
Early-pregnant girl, sheltering from the awning, lady hitting deer, young rider, kind-hearted couple, car repair brother, pastor
I see you in my way. Let's watch the stars together.
