This movie uses exams to make a good connection. It tells you that in the small society of campus, the gap between the rich and the poor, the grades, and even the differences in personality, no matter what the difference, their purpose may be caused by The exam is resolved. Its irony is also that the principal of the school receiving the sponsorship says he wants to educate people, but he doesn't know the destruction of humanity by the examination machine. Lin is the paranoid genius who "you did it wrong, I did it, what's wrong with me".
The protagonist of the movie is a "traitor" when she comes up. Despite her father's prevention, she calculated all the expenses of transferring to another school with a little performance, achieving her goal of being exempted from school fees. The principal and she both used unspoken rules in disguise to achieve their goals, with fair reasons. The first cheating was to share worries for friends. Later cheating was almost for money. Of course, there was the vanity of "Mr. Xiaolin" behind her (this vanity is actually her understanding of patriarchy). Although Lin used the name of being charged for sponsorship, she couldn't hide her heartbeat every time she heard the amount of money.
Although the movie does not express Lin's hunger for money positively, but her concern for Banker is essentially a profile of this. They are of the same background, and they are single parents and they have to fight on their own. The loser who felt the same, Lin also said later.
These are the deep motivations hidden behind the narrative of the genre. A good youthful movie does not require the protagonist to confess himself. You will also see how a group of different companions gather together because of the same goal.
but. Soon it will fall apart. Because although everyone's goal is to be accomplished by one form, everyone's greed is completely different. The pain in youth must come through expansion, and I will magnify what I want, changing rapidly under repeated shocks.
This is also this movie, which makes me feel that something precious and regrettable in human nature was shot. By the last door Lin walked out, she would have lost her friend Banker forever. This is the helplessness and pain that we will definitely feel when we look back on our youth. It has existed and disappeared, and we are ruined by our own hands.
Because of Lin’s concern for Bank during the competition, Bank also cares about Lin, and it is the most practical benefit, so he perseveres in reporting cheating. He thinks Lin was copied from the paper because he is too innocent. Such concern goes to another. An ending is shameful, and it seems that the friendship between the little boy and the big sister is also very delicate. Two people are the same smart and powerful, the same background, the same care and the same training experience (how to quickly remember the answer if you have to keep training), but forever lose their companions in this large life test.
Lin was almost in pain. This is something that happened after she rejected Grace's party. In such an environment, Grace shed tears. This is the precursor. It turns out that your friendship collapsed in real interests in an instant. Once people grow up and build true friendships with other interests, there is no turning back when they collapse. This Grace is Lin who rejected Bank.
This is a regret in life. Just like "City of Philharmonic", the two people saw each other always at the bottom of each other, working hard and failing repeatedly, until they broke up without success. In this relationship, they have no joy of success to share, so they are destined to never be together, because they know each other again, and what they know is what each other least wants to have. The best time for their feelings to originate is accompanied by failure and desire for other things. It is very realistic and cruel, and life will be so separated forever.
So did Lynn and Bank.
