People living in memory

After watching a movie for the first time, I feel like I want to cry, but I can’t squeeze a tear out. Sometimes black and white old movies have this kind of power. The lens looks like a light and windy lens, but it is like a soldering iron. The pain was born in my heart.
The young man in the small town, doing nothing to fool around with his brothers, thinking about how to fuck his girlfriend now seems so ridiculous, so ridiculously beautiful. . . After graduating, I will soon enter the long-awaited adult world, but what is the road ahead? Who really knows? Many people have left the declining town, leaving behind those who are reluctant to take a step forward because of their memories. They are left behind by the years, hoping that those familiar people who have gone away will one day appear there. On the streets of the bleak town, give yourself a big hug, and then go for another round of pool. . .
Being human is the cruelest punishment for those who hold memories and refuse to let go. Watching the pool balls that used to fool around is now empty, watching Billy lying on the cold corpse on the roadside, he is still angry. He is leaving here. . . But it still can't bear the memory of pulling and turning the front of the car back, and ended his youth with the curse of his 40-year-old lover. . .

    rather disappointed. I thought there would be some cinephile elements, but the cinema is just a symbolic presentation, symbolizing the end of the entertainment space that only exists. The plot is too fragmented, and the whole story is about the restlessness of youth hormones. A movie like this needs some similar life experiences.

    Confused youth. Sadly, many young people today don't even have the time and energy for this kind of bewilderment
