a little happiness, a little sadness

The name of this movie has always been in my mind, but I always ignored it. The urge to watch it was because of a variety show, which was a review of the glorious twenty years of the "Four Heavenly Kings". When introducing Dawn At that time, it started with .

"Dark barber shop, dressed in black clothes, sunglasses, and the corner of the mouth that is not smiling." At that time, the feeling in my heart can only be described as amazing, and I couldn't wait to buy the DVD Going home. Wong Kar Wai's typical movie style, ambiguous people, immersed in the ambiguous air, intoxicated by ambiguous music, recording everything ambiguous with ambiguous lenses.

Love makes people crazy, and love makes beautiful Li Jiaxin cry So decadent, let the mysterious Karen Mok cry simple, let the warm Yang Cai Ni cry wantonly.

I like the way Liming uses songs to express her thoughts; I like Takeshi Kaneshiro's simple eyes and expressions; I like Liming's helplessness when she meets her primary school classmates Laugh; I really like Takeshi Kaneshiro when he forces others to eat ice cream, wash their hair, shave, and buy groceries. When I

watched the film for the second time, I found that it contains a lot of emotions, love, family, and friendship. Wong Kar Wai makes every emotion feel warm Beginning:

Love: Li Jiaxin cleans up the room for Li Liming and finds a job for him to make money; Karen Mok's initiative at McDonald's, the teasing downstairs of her house, the kiss in the room;

Jin Chengwu enjoys Yang Caini's support, crying, crazy, hugging, first love like this Wonderful!

Family: Takeshi Kaneshiro took a DV filming his father, cooking, walking, sleeping, and even going to the toilet. He recorded everything about his father; Li Jiaxin

's feelings for Li Jiaxin are love, Li Jiaxin's feelings for Li Jiaxin? In my opinion Come, it's a touch of family affection, maybe it's a habit.

Friendship: Every time a long-haired man is forced by Takeshi Kaneshiro to do something he doesn't want to do, I think there is friendship between him and Takeshi Kaneshiro, and he has always tolerated

it. Takeshi Kaneshiro's willfulness is hard but not disgusting;

A small Japanese restaurant, with the friendship between the manager and Liming, the friendship between Liming and Takeshi Kaneshiro, and the friendship between Takeshi Kaneshiro and the manager.



Wong Kar-wai makes every relationship have a cold ending:

Love: Liming wants to change In my own life, I decided to leave, let us see Li Jiaxin's tears; because I knew myself, I separated from Karen Mok, let us

see Karen Mok's tears; the new Yang Caini appeared in front of Jin Chengwu, she didn't know him, let us hear Takeshi Kaneshiro said: "I am broken in love."

Family: When his father passed away, Takeshi Kaneshiro watched the video he made over and over again. The father on TV still made him feel extra warm, but he knew very

well that he would never see him again. When it's time for my father, I can't eat the food my father made anymore; the last time we worked together, Li Ming died, and the

faint was broken.

Friendship: Takeshi Kaneshiro was willful to a long-haired man for the last time , but it really hurt him; after clinking glasses that night, Li Ming never had a chance to go to that small

Japanese pub; the manager returned to Japan.

In retrospect, Li Jiaxin got in the car of Takeshi Kaneshiro, and the hearts of the two were at that time. They are all warm, but this feeling is too short-lived. Is it

the "destined relationship" that people often say between them?

    This is a very Wong Kar-wai-style film, with a deconstructed narrative technique, urban male and female feelings between urban jungles, and a strong fatalistic destiny. The shots are alive, and each character is shaped & individualized by the director. The whole movie is sad, gray and deep, and everyone is at a loss...

    On New Year's Eve, my brother and I watched this neurotic movie. I was so embarrassed about Lin Jiaxin's ziwei episode, but he thought it was the effect of drug use... Liming said "killers also have elementary school classmates" and Kaneshiro Takeshi's debut, we all laughed and turned over

Fallen Angels quotes

  • He Zhiwu: We rub shoulders with many people everyday. Some may become close friends, or confidants. That's why I'm always optimistic. Sometimes it hurts. Not to worry - I try to stay happy. That night, I saw that woman again. I knew we'd never be friends or confidants. We'd let too many chances pass us by. Nothing happened, there was no chemistry. Maybe it was the weather, but that night I found her very alluring.

  • He Zhiwu: You rub elbows with a lot of people every day. Some strangers might become your friends or even confidants. So I never turn my back on a chance to rub elbows. Sometimes I rub till I bleed. No big deal, as long as I'm happy. That night, I ran into that woman again. I knew very well we'd never be friends or confidants. We'd had too many chances to rub elbows in the past. We had rubbed elbows till our clothes tore, but still no sparks. Maybe it was the weather, but that evening I felt a spark.
