Youth is a cold joke

I must admit that this film is indulging in indulgence. After the bright beginning is smoke, falling, stretching, drugs, and essential sex. In the small room, there were a few people and the crying baby of the unknown father. The whole psychedelic color is compact and dizzying.
Remember that guessing the train is a time-killing game. Everyone gathers around the track to figure out when the next train will arrive. There are too many choices, and Mark and his friends have chosen to indulge themselves and become obsessed with heroin. Thoughts wandering around, boring TV shows, boring junk food, boring football games, boring life, those boring things are meaningless if they become choices. Of course, you can’t choose to be boring. Of course, you must have pursuit. Of course, you must make survival a little bit more interesting. Heroin is the most interesting.
There is no escape, no fresh air can make a difference, and even the only two white pills can bring the purest blue world, indulging, loosening reason, depraved, mixed with some decadent thoughts, This is what the so-called rebellious youth should do. When I watched this film two years ago, I didn't know how much I envied the slightly punk and psychedelic youth in it. They could abandon the world and die madly. Detoxification, blackmailing, having sex with young girls, complaining about life assholes, perhaps, only white powder can provide the most comfort. A certain drug use accidentally caused the death of the unknown child. The young mother yelled in panic, while the addicts chose to continue taking drugs. "We just perish even more, and the pain worsens," Mark said.
In the end, Mark was able to act like a dog, but he couldn't get rid of the old friends. He tried to resist but couldn't resist. In the end, he stole money from a certain drug transaction and got rid of his previous life completely. At that time, I was a little sad or even indignant. I was indignant that Mark, who was a decadent young man, had turned his back on his original intention and plunged into the mainstream of the world, the choice of life.
Only the deceased will always be seventeen years old. On the other hand, I now agree with Mark’s choice more, and even want to laugh at my naive and ignorant mentality when I watched the movie two years ago. The chaos may really only be in my rebellious adolescence. You have the courage to do it when you have a fever. You can choose not to choose, but it is not abandoning the world, but being abandoned by the world.

"Why did I do that? There are a million answers, but they are all wrong. The reason is that I am a bad embryo at all, but that will change. I want to change. This is the last bad thing. I want to change my mind and move forward. Go, choose life, I am already looking forward to it. I will be like you, work, family, big TV, washing machine, car, CD player, electric can opener, health, low cholesterol, dental insurance, loan, shopping, Casual wear, suitcase, three-piece suit, DIY, quiz show, junk food, kids, walk in the park, 9 to 5, golf, car wash, sweatshirt, home for Christmas, pension, tax-free, clear water Ditch, just look forward until the day you die."

Don't blame youth anymore, in fact, "youth" is just a child who can't stand the toss.
