At first SKINS felt a lot like train guessing to me. It is also a group of confused teenagers, who are also indulged in their youth, unable to moan, the same wild world, the same unfamiliar youth. When I saw the second season, I felt that maybe SKINS paid more attention to the expression of feelings than trainspotting. A group of seemingly heartless children finally know what to cherish after experiencing all kinds of entanglements. Tony finally knows how to go after Michelle after his car accident. Sid finally stopped rocking Michelle and Cassie and set out on a path to find Cassie. Although I think Cassie is much better than Sid, I still bless them.
Cassie, my favorite girl in season one or two. She's not a popular girl on the show, or even a neurotic anorexic. But every time she stared blankly at the sky and whispered, I knew she was just a simple, simple girl who liked fantasies. Although she doesn't like the world, she always treats it meekly. Her love for Sid is so simple and persistent. It's a pity that the clumsy and slow Sid can't see her goodness, nor understand her intentions. When Max took the portrait of Cass and said "she is beautiful" to Sid, maybe Sid really understood how beautiful Cassie is.
Effy, in season 1 and 2, she was just Tony's sister, just a supporting role with a small role. But she did attract me. What an elusive character she was in season one or two. She was obviously only a fifteen or six-year-old girl, but she seemed to see through everything. She didn't care what the world thought of her, and even when Tony tried his best to bow his head to the enemy just to save her, she still kept her usual heartless look. She's so smart that the Sid group's previously chaotic relationship readjusts to normal frequencies. Even at the end of the second season, she said goodbye with her classic smirk. This girl I can't understand, she seems to be from another world. However, after Effy became the protagonist in the third and fourth seasons, I realized that she, like other protagonists, is a girl who is not sensible. The mysterious impression of Effy left on me in seasons 1 and 2 disappeared, but my love for her has not diminished. I still like that smoky, punk girl.
Effy is so craving. This may have originated from her family. When her parents didn't give her the love she wanted, she became more and more in need of love. That's why it's repeated in Cook and Frendi. I think she really loves Fredi, but F didn't give her enough sense of security, and she was like an ordinary little girl who obviously liked it but pretended not to. And then continue to destroy, this is the source of tragedy. Although the inexplicable death of Fredi in the end seems to have nothing to do with Effy, I have been wondering whether the director's arrangement is implying that a woman like Effy loves too strongly and has no way to catch her true love. Of course, the fourth season still ended with an open ending, leaving us with countless reverie.
I don't know how they will fare, I don't know what's going to happen next... Season 5, it's a brand new cast, a brand new plot, and it's just a continuation of the still confused youth... I don't think I will continue to watch the skin. Well, because the girls I like are no longer there...
