This is why I like being young.

In fact, I knew this movie from a long time ago, but I never watched it. I always wanted to watch it later. Later, later, it became later. Today is probably a whim. Life is too depressing.
People tend to be impulsive when they are young, and tend to do stupid things. That's why the beginning of the film showed us something about Dominick and his friends. Young people always like to make such seemingly innocuous jokes. In fact, these things can hurt people's hearts. In the film, Dominick feels like singing a one-man show. His parents, his friends, his Sylwia. They all seem to be involved, but everyone is their own story.
I'll start with his parents. Two people have been together for so long, the goal is to make their career reach a better level, of course, they also care about the family, but they all hope that each other will invest more, because they are really busy and they don’t care about it. Did not notice the contradiction in this family, and then an economic crisis completely made the contradiction more thorough. Regarding the affair mentioned in the film, I think it is human nature. Most of the time each year, the husband (wife) is not around, but another person appears in your sight very frequently, and that person is beautiful (handsome), sexy, and intellectual, and is there when you need it at work By your side, the husband (wife) may be as busy as you, for a long time, and have not had a good conversation. Feelings happen spontaneously, and then there is a sexual relationship. As for the son who was bred together, tall, handsome, who had never caused trouble before, he was about to graduate from high school, and the pride of him was unconsciously tied to his words. All these seem so beautiful. In the end, what shocked me the most was the few words that my father and mother had been chanting, "Tell me, what he (you) wants, I can give you (him)" what should be given, should not be given It’s too much. Probably this couple really doesn’t know what to do. We don’t know what to do. They can only ask, what do you want, we work so hard, we give everything we think you want. is you. For these, it could have been different. And after the last son committed suicide, really, everything exploded. Apart from divorce, there was really no better solution to this broken family. At least, everyone can have a new beginning. Although this is cruel to the dead, it is the best way to live for the living.
And Dominick's friend, there are too many hormones in puberty, and all the problems of puberty have appeared. They always want others to notice themselves and do extraordinary things, but they are all afraid. When Dominick appeared strangely on campus, why did no one laugh at him? Because reality is not the Internet, real people will fight back. Dominick actually found it funny at first when he saw the content of the Internet. Who knows that it has become more and more intense and there is no bottom line. These are really hurting people's hearts. I can also understand why Chinese education has to suppress our character when we are most rebellious, because no one will endure living among a group of people with excessive hormone secretion. However, sometimes this will only be counterproductive. The more depressed you are, the more he will explode.
Sylwia is Dominick's mental partner. Dominick may be Sylwia's mentally dependent person. At least in the end, it may be just a tool for her to commit suicide. Sylwia, she has been emphasizing that she wants to commit suicide throughout the film. When I was in high school, I often imagined myself jumping off the 5th floor and then dying, but after all, I was a timid and afraid of pain. People. Sylwia is not afraid of pain, but I don't know if she is timid. It should be timid, otherwise why not face the world, only the strong can say "you are the winner, you are all stupid" in front of a group of stupid guys, and the cowardly people just want to leave this world, since they have already suffered After more than ten years, why can't you stay on it for a while? Personally, I am also a human being who hates humans very much, and hates its animality and humanity. Sylwia always feels that she has nothing to love, and isolates herself from society. It must be like the male protagonist that something has happened before, or she has learned something, but why is she in her teens? To survive it, just stay for a few more years, or think slowly, slowly to see other things besides the disgust of this real reality. It will pass, as long as you don't want to die in such a disgusting way but live with hesitation.
The last Dominick is the true tragic character in the film. He really has everything, but it really seems to have nothing. He is as sensitive as Sylwia said. He was sensitive and didn’t find a correct way to face the world. He didn’t figure it out. He just wanted to find someone who could confide in and tell him the solution, and his parents weren’t there, and his friends were a bunch of fools. Then he Found Sylwia. He wanted to resolve his conflicts and was also attracted by Sylwia's extreme approach. In the end, he probably fell in love with Sylwia. He didn't want her to die, he had been with her, but he wanted her to achieve what she called happiness. He also said that he didn't want to die, but why he died like this later, probably because he never saw Sylwia again, or at that moment he thought of a lot of recent things, he was too helpless, just impulsive After swallowing these medicines, then, at the end, when he cried out to his mother in excitement and pain, and wanted to take out the medicine in his stomach, I knew he regretted it, and he really didn't want to die. After he swallowed the medicine, he danced out of control. He was just remembering the past, but all of this was so stupid. He couldn't help but burst into laughter. He wanted to catch his parents and come out, but there was none. Success, and at the last moment he felt that he wanted to live alone, he was willing to continue to live with his mother normally, but it was too late.
This film is indeed a good one, and there are many things that are worth studying deeply, but I can only write some incoherent words.
