In those years, God knows who chased my girl!

Compared with the realism of "Post-80s", "Those Years" is much more romantic. However, "Post-80s" has a romantic ending, and "Those Years" has a much crueler ending. There is no comparison between which is better and which is worse, and the evaluation is only based on personal preference.

Of course, these two films have awakened many memories at the same time, whether they are fresh in memory or already dusty, the ripples on the heart lake are rippling.

The key is that these two are based on campus. Why is the love in the campus so full of memories, whether it is embarrassing to look back or bowing the head indifferently, it is bound to be touched? Because adolescence love is a love without any burden, without any utility, without any reason, and without any logic.
Compared with European and American campus romance movies, Chinese movies are much more moving and beautiful. From "The Blue Gate" to "Summer Palace", from "Those Years" back to the past few years, what we have touched, What we are saddened and emotional about is that we didn't know how to cherish and we were ignorant at the beginning. It was lost like that, and it will never be forgotten. Just let it go and never find it. Just left.
There is a sentence in the movie that really hits people's hearts, that is, in growing up, women are always more mature than men, whether in love or in business. What makes people helpless is that the girl will eventually choose a mature and stable man, and will always miss that naive boy. Women are more realistic than men.
But love, but pure love, does not need reality. The most moving and beautiful part of love lies in romance, in sensibility, in abandoning the original impulse to keep calm and do whatever one wants. That is you, the most authentic feeling of you, that is the truth that you are not influenced by too many realistic factors. Adults always feel that they have lost their purity and can't go back to their youthful frivolity, so they can only pick up the broken memories and cry when watching movies. Love does not need wisdom. Therefore, what we feel is that this society has transformed the once beautiful self into the now forward-looking, fearful, numb, and hypocritical adult.

Everyone has a story behind them, who knows who chased the girl around you in those years. It doesn't matter, God knows you've been chasing that girl all those years? The past they have had with each other is not a problem. The question is, do you have a future now? Haha, when you think about this, it proves that you have learned how to love. When you think about it, it proves that you can no longer try to love purely. In that battle, there was no winner or loser, each other picked up the pieces of their hearts on the battlefield, put them together, and let time smooth the traces of the cracks. When you hand it over carefully, you are afraid that it will not be able to withstand further damage, and become rational and realistic. If you dare not let go of your heart completely, you cannot enjoy love. Of course, you believe it without hesitation, of course you will take risks, why not? Can't afford to lose? Realism means nothing, especially when it comes to love.
Realism means nothing, especially when it comes to life.
