Little fresh but no shortage of growing pains

Both JOE and his two friends were in restless adolescence. JOE had a family with divorced parents, and his mother did not give him the love and guidance at this time, and his father was almost an ASSHOLE a day. Can't understand the love he lacks, the pain he is growing up. Of course he likes a HOT girl in school, of course, and he also thinks that girl will like to return to him as a matter of course.
Then they ran out of the house and ran into the woods to build a paradise for themselves. At the beginning, they were simply free to release their excess energy in the wild. Until later, JOE invited the girls he liked to come to their cabin. The latter scene was the turning point of the whole movie. It was the first time a teenager learned what life is, and it was also time for him to compromise and learn to grow. The girl didn't come to him at night, but went to his best friend. The scene behind it delicately depicts the dreams that JOE takes for granted, hoping for the feeling of brokenness. He didn't close his eyes all night, there was only a trace of tears in his eyes, but I think his heart is broken, and he is so desperate for the recognition of a girl who lacks love. Later, he fell out with his buddies and walked in the wilderness with the little man. He said that things were never the same as before. In the end, he lives in the woods all by himself. He no longer feels free and happy, but the reality weighs heavily on him. I don’t want his father and others to come to him in the end, maybe he will never come back. went.
JOE finally reconciled. JOE forgave his father for his rude love, and he forgave the betrayal of his buddies and girls. He has grown because he knows that this is life anyway.
The picture is beautiful, especially the scene in the wilderness. The music is beautiful and the scene is very good. The scene dancing on the iron pipe is really great.

    The trough is too high energy

    In fact, it is a very painless movie (the plot is a bit second, not advanced), and the color temperature is also adjusted a bit deliberately. Generally, this kind of movie will be very good with a little fresh music, but I don't know why the music selected by the director is all minus points.
