As if I saw the melancholy teenager walking in front

This is a palpitating movie. It was beyond my expectation. It was beyond imagination~~ I didn’t think it was enough after watching this movie n times. I really want to study each lens in depth, after watching it. Facing the empty mirror that appeared in the movie, his thoughts were complicated.
Actor is not US-based, development of the plot nothing exciting, but it is everywhere caught caught the hearts of the audience
I saw a young boy walking on the highway on Long Island, maybe he is a juvenile ah lost maternal love Oedipus
when he stood overpass Go up, look, the vehicle under him is driving fast, he is there where he wants to take that step, his face is so calm when death is approaching,
but he doesn’t hate this society, he just belongs to that kind of society. The confusion and rebellion of your youth, his sadness and the resulting loneliness, may be some kind of loneliness in the soul, some kind of inexplicable escape from life.
He always speaks in a cold voice, introverted in performance, and hollow in his eyes. His inner world is
closed and cannot be broken by others. He has no friends, so when Gary enters his life, he is the only one who makes him believe and rely on. The friend was only using him, and the expression on his face did not change much. He found that many things can only be solved by his own strength.

When Howe gave his arms to Big John, ~~he did nothing to him.
In the film, the big John is beside the piano, singing danny boy, which is touching. It is a compliment and nostalgia for the boy. It turns out that such a person can be so gentle and sing a moving love song. ~
There seems to be a certain bridge between the so-called great evil and great good. There are no bad people in the film because they are all real.
The gay movie no1 in my mind Although the movie only slightly involves some gays, it cannot be completely regarded as a gay movie. In it, Haoyi is more tempted by friendship because of friendship.
The tempo of the film is fast and slow, whispering, leaving a rather blurred ending.
Like an experimental film, the soundtrack of this film is another highlight. No original soundtrack can make me like this film. So nostalgic.
Haoyi said that on the Long Island Expressway, there are roads going east, there are roads going west, and there are roads leading directly to hell. There is such a path in people's hearts, and the right to choose lies in themselves.

    The rhythm is the same as the driving speed in the movie, not explosive.

    It's a low-budget independent film that can be seen, and the pictures describing the highway are superb, blurred and vivid; the background music seems to be miserable LSD, full of the illusion effect caused by the hormones of puberty. Rather than labeling it as gay, it is more about youthful ravings and meditations, but it seems that starting from "My Private Idaho", I still don't quite understand the narrative method of American gay films, the long and bland, sporadic pornography...
