don't have much insight into this movie. Because I don't have that life experience. Their lives are so far away from me. Throughout the film, from beginning to end, there is one thing "sex" running through. Sexual greed is one of the seven deadly sins, and indulging in it is a depravity. So, at first, I thought this movie was about two degenerate youths, irresponsible, and living a very rotten life.
Saar is a thoughtful writer who enriches his life experience and increases his creative inspiration by walking on the road with a backpack. Along the way, I met many people and met Dean. He was youthful, passionate, but overindulgent, had a messy sex life, drank heavily, and smoked marijuana. He hurt two women, destroyed his own family, and left ruthlessly when his brother was in trouble. It can be said that he is a complete badass, superfluous scum. While watching the movie, I forgot to look at Dean from another angle. In fact, he also wants to pursue a better life, but he is just a child who does not want to grow up or has not yet grown up. Therefore, he has not yet understood what is responsibility and what is life. He is mixed in a stage where he should understand and is very ignorant, so it may be very uncomfortable. And Thrall seems to have done nothing to make him feel sorry for his lover. But he would also follow Dean to indulge himself, or sometimes stand on the sidelines, not intervene or speak. After all, he is a thinking man. So, he will restrain himself. Occasionally, only to release the uninhibited inner.
In the end, what the film shows us is the difference between the two. Meeting again after a long time, Thrall is already on the road he wants to go, and Dean is still lost in his own forest and can't find his way.
