It's a robbery or fate

The title is reminded of the recent green snake robbery. The director said that the title came from the theme song of Tsui Hark’s "Green Snake", "Do happy things with lovers, don’t ask if the robbery is fate", and inexplicably fit the film, so he copied it ( In addition, I have to say that the origin of the white snake and the robbery of the green snake should not be regarded as the upper and lower episodes, it is better to regard it as two independent world movies).

The elephant in the room we kept silent, despair is the saddest footnote. The confession in the car when you want to have fun, the search when the memory is blurred, have I stopped you, have you turned your head? When the fireflies are released, can I have the courage to continue loving you?

The whole story is long and subtle, winning in temperament and losing in rhythm. Telling a story in two movies is also meaningful. But there are still some details that are not satisfied, such as the discrepancy between the two plots. Why is there such an arrangement? Why does a story have two details? Is it to explain Rashomon? But isn't Rashomon a different interpretation of the same detail? Why are the conjunctions changed here?

Go back and watch "In the Bamboo Forest" again.

In addition, after watching the film, I feel more and more that pain is not painful, only despair is the most sad background. On the contrary, pain always brings happiness. It's just that happiness is short and pain is eternal.

In addition, don't use such a poor vocabulary as "scumboys and scumbags" to characterize someone, remember my heart.

The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Her quotes

  • Professor Lillian Friedman: You okay?

    Eleanor Rigby: Sure.

    Professor Lillian Friedman: Liar.

    Eleanor Rigby: Sure.

  • Professor Lillian Friedman: I'm not sure why people have kids. You know, first there's the nine months of agony, your body hurts, it's hot, it's cold, you crave pickles, and there's no words to describe whatever the fuck labor is. And then this little stranger comes out, sucking every bit of life you have left in you, and as soon as you're ready to jump out of a window, all of a sudden, he smiles.

    Professor Lillian Friedman: [about her lunch] Jesus Christ, this is good.

    Professor Lillian Friedman: And whatever you do, however you do it, however you imagine your child's life, or what kind of parent you'd be, he's in some shrink's office accusing you of some stupid thing that you said or did that for the life of you, you can't remember saying or doing.
