Never had a happy ending that made me so grateful

The vicious Vincent Gallo is simply one of the most unique labels in the European and American literary and art circles. Born in a love-deficient family in Buffalo, USA, he grew up as a lonely wanderer in Europe; he has both gloomy and handsome Sicilian descendants and a gypsy-style rebelliousness; he can hold a paintbrush, get a runway, and even work as a motorcycle He said that he didn’t want to be an actor but wanted to be a star, but he only acted in niche literary films all his life; he also made movies, his debut was the peak, he wrote, directed and acted, telling his own stories. This debut feature, titled in his hometown, has since become a classic that cannot be replicated in crime films - you haven't experienced that kind of life, how can you make such a work?

There are very few movies that can be in the script, character design, performance, and image style. . . There is a harmonious and unified manic absurdity in every link. Yes, you read it wrong, I think this neurotic story is very harmonious. What was the story about? It is said that after the male protagonist was released from prison, he casually kidnapped a girl and brought her to meet her parents. The girl really became his true love, softened his heart, and made him give up the idea of ​​revenge. God knows how Vincent Gallo, who was making a movie for the first time, wanted to use those maverick but extremely accurate shots and editing to convey his heart. Thanks to his talent, I can clearly see that under the maddening irrationality, there is a layer of desire to be treated gently. That's why, when I saw the whole black storyline (even until the last scene, I felt that there would be a catastrophe that would shatter all my fantasies), when Gallo arranged a happy ending, I didn't feel abrupt at all, Instead, I am grateful to him. No matter how rough life is, it deserves to be covered with a gentle arc, and what Gallo tells is more than his own story.
