Black boy and the gun in his hand

The little boy said, "I also want to be immortal" and "I may not survive today." It is true that teenagers are prone to cherish great passion and resentment. He can continue to protest loudly and shout when the crowd is running away because of police throws. They also want to "become immortal", to carry out his justice, to do what they have done with people they admire, "a shot in the head of the police."

But it was not a white man who yelled at him with his hands and feet. It was a black man with the same skin color and kindly persuaded him. Maybe it's because of a little "betrayal".

Unexpectedly, it makes sense, more cruel and miserable.

The film has a strong political meaning and obvious political demands. The shots of the little boy may mean that such hatred and contradictions will only bring more absurd tragedies.

To me, it seems that the death of the hero and heroine is not unexpected. I feel that with the joy of the two in the car. At that time was the real climax of the film.

With that shot, it pulled me back, from the desperate world full of love and life between the two. As if I saw the ending of the movie at that time. It must be like this gunshot, cold and cruel.

Just like the story told by the male protagonist: "Children are made to have sex." The sense of coldness and absurdity of reality is really fascinating.

    Why would an excellent female lawyer decide to run away

    I thought it was another story of a black man being shot by the police. The result is not, it is a story of black people who killed the policeman in the fight with the police and then ran away. After the story spread, they became heroes in the hearts of most black people. Of course, there are also a small number of black people who think they have done a disservice, and the police will not hesitate to shoot black people in the future. In any case, the escape route was not at all thrilling, and even a little funny. But they were finally betrayed by the black people, and they almost became desperate mandarin ducks flying away.
