When you first saw him sitting on the side of the street, you probably wouldn't notice him, and even if you saw him, you just thought he was helpless. So you ignore the overwhelm and choose to "go ahead".
And when you see him in your life again, you start to wonder. He is so out of place, as if he is not from this world. He speaks vaguely, is sloppy in his body, and doesn't sound like someone I would like. Even a little annoying.
Because of a sudden event, you both started working together for one thing. But when you meet this uninvited guest into your life, you still worry that he will make a mess of his own house, sweeping everything, because of his alcohol addiction, drug addiction, or something else. You also dare not eat what it makes, which doesn't seem to fit in your mouth.
Although everything you did did not show any kindness, in his eyes, it was like a ray of sunshine. This was the first time he smiled so happily. And you also start to find that he is like a story, a suspense novel, and you don't know the answer. Perhaps, that would explain his anachronism as his way of dealing with the world.
You found his interesting, found his wonderful ideas, and found his sadness. But never really understood. You just pity him. You look at him and tell him that he should be thankful for the system, that he helped your bad life stop falling, and he just cursed and didn't bother to argue with you. Until his sister, his mother, his grandparents, tell you his cryptic story...you're silent. You find that he sees you as a true friend, and doesn't want his own grief to intrude, his own staggering footsteps to weigh you down.
That flashback is done, and you don't know if you've found the right answer. Although you asked, he told you that if he could change one thing, he wished he didn't know about violence. Instead of condemning any injustice, he chose not to be the messenger of that evil. As much as he hates the world, that shit system is just fucking doing innocuous things. If his childhood could be saved by the queen, where would that sunny boy be?
Actually, I had hoped he would be pure. But I can't control my rainbow farts. Just forgive me and let me write two sentences. Mr. Tang's acting is so good...cry! From the moment he opened his mouth, the whole figure stood there. Although, this has nothing to do with Benny's acting skills. He doesn't steal the show like a bystander, and he can play with stuart, which is really not bad.
The director also chose a very cute clip and inserted a lot of simple strokes to neutralize the somewhat sad atmosphere. But the rhythm of the flashback is also doomed, and it is uncomfortable to peel off.
Last but not least is The Da Vinci Code. Coincidentally, this book is also very popular in China. Sadly, no one cared what happened to Stewart's password.
