"Some People Like Poetry"

Some people -- that means not all. Not even the entire majority, but the minority. If you don't count the schools everyone must attend and the poet himself, there are probably two out of a thousand.

Like it -- but there are people who like shredded chicken noodle soup. Some people like compliments and blue, some people like old scarves, some people like to prove their point, some people like to have dogs as pets.

Poetry - But what exactly is poetry? There is more than one uncertain answer to this question. But I don't understand, I don't understand and I hold on to it, as if I'm holding onto a life-saving railing.

--Simposka, "Some People Like Poetry"

    As expected of Li Cangdong, who is engaged in literature, his literary qualities are so strong, the seemingly casual scenes are full of tension, and the movements are calm but poetic. The best and the worst in life, that is poetry.

    Life is not as good as poetry, but in his image, it becomes the old man who bears the sins of his grandson. Like the river at the end of the film, it is so good that it is Hiroyede and they are all the way. I found that the women created by Li Changdong have a sympathetic determination. The bleak and miserable people live such a poetic two-line narrative, one bright and one dark drama, which is the best of the five.
