Dreaming back when I was young and studying

There is only one original intention for watching this film: the title. It must be this topic that attracted me. I have always regarded myself as a Trotskyist sympathizer. When I saw this topic, I naturally wanted to see what Canadian high school students had in their minds, and how far they were from when I was in high school.

Our protagonist seems to be a neurotic, hormonal type. I like mature women and lectures. In fact, he is just a little kid, totally incomparable with Trotsky. The final success is nothing more than Western high school students want to find something fun and fresh in their spare time. It's definitely not that they are really infected by the spirit of Shenma. The ending is even more funny. Dad actually took out a copy of Chairman Mao's quotations and gave him...omg. If Zheng Chaolin saw this, he would be more angry than he knew he was going to be locked up for twenty-seven years, and he would be able to jump out of his grave. To say this is nothing more than to say that from the director to the actor, in fact, you don't know Trotsky's life, don't know Trotsky's theory, and don't know the tragic fate of Trotskyism worldwide.

So, this is a youth film with communist fantasies, typical North American thinking, find some students, find something that can make them woola woola, get an interesting background, everything will be fine. Just like the eleven district animation, a large part of the spiritual thought in it is fetters, exerting subjective initiative, working towards ideals and so on. In fact, the film is the same.

The film is not useless. Its greatest significance to the audience in the celestial dynasty is to let you know that if Trotsky had a reincarnation, then he was really born in the West. Born in the celestial dynasty, if such a person can emerge, either there is a problem with education or the child's head is broken. According to a pessimistic estimate, the proportion of people who know of Trotsky in China is much smaller than that in North America. After all, just like the movie's Xiaotuo making a big fuss at school, it was just a transfer at the end, Zhentuo also lived in North America in his later years until he was killed by an assassin. Speaking of this, I also remembered the sentence in the film: are you my Stalin. . . If there is a sequel, that guy can't kill our male lead.
