This is not a film review at all, it is at most some thoughts about my perception.
【one】
Powerless.
Life is a long way, not like a movie.
The story is always going on. After having up, there will be down, but having down does not mean there will be no up.
Like the protagonist’s confession, I have been sober for eight years, and one more day counts as one day.
There is pain, there is darkness where you can't see your head, but there will be light when the darkness passes.
Even if there are shadows under the light, those bright, fresh, sweet and sour are real.
The beauty, the world as it is, are real, and it's all yours.
Even if there is a shadow under the light, even if it is exposed to the light, it will return to the endless long night.
But isn't it like that? You can bite your teeth and weep in the sun; you can sing softly and whisper sweetly in the long night.
Being passive; being active.

When I hear "close your eyes, have no fear", I can't help my emotions.
At first hearing it was the beauty of a world, even a little jealous, this is all about my father, darling Sean.
This time I was caught off guard and heard this song that I took care of and treasured,
There are contradictory thoughts with nowhere to hide.
Am i jealous? I'm still jealous.
But I have reconciled, with my father, with my childhood, and with my naive self.
Maybe not yet.
For a while, I felt that I wished I could discuss this film with my father,
But thinking of "how to speak", I choked up suddenly for some reason.
Some knots haven't been solved yet, will the future self choose to work hard to solve them, or will he let them go slowly? Only time will tell.
【three】
I actually envy the protagonist.
Under envy and jealousy, there is some ease.
You see, he has everything. He has all the things I desire most: talent, knowledge, goals, appearance, background, parental support,
But still have a bad life.
Look at him looking down at the Golden Gate Bridge, how sad and hopeless his back is.
I suddenly felt a little guilty and relaxed.
It seems that the things that I have been longing for for a long time are actually not useful in the end.
I only have myself, myself and my feelings.
Like what John Lennon sang in a solo album, I don't believe anything, I just believe in myself, plus a Yoko, Yoko and me.
Yourself and your own feelings.
Only it is important, only it is real.
【Four】
I thought for a long time what Lin Yutang said through the mouth of an elder in a novel, to the effect that "build an inner world that is not invaded by poisons, and you will not be afraid of the wind and rain outside."
But if the body is not invaded by poisons, will it really be peaceful?
"Ann" is there.
But what about "le"?
"Le" is about the same intensity of "pain" to maintain.
As Timothee, the lead actor of this film, said in an interview with his experience of love:
Love truely, love wholely, give yourself.
If you're feeling pain, if you're heartbroken, if you're suffering,
you're doing it the right way.
This is really a very precocious young man.
To enjoy love, you must accept the pain it brings.
I still want more love.
I cry,
For the love that is not available, and for the love that is obtained.
