The reed swings, swings, swings, swings in the orange sunset...

Hmm... I found out that the director is a handsome uncle, and I heard that he is still a good friend who has already come out. It seems that I want to be merciful. Just kidding :), I will try my best to balance the objective and subjective weights. The specific situation is analyzed in detail. Of course, the film itself will be the basic consideration in the end.

I heard that the director added "Texas" to the title because he liked the Texas bar when he named it. Some people thought it was thunderous. I think it's understandable. Just imagine that the director likes this bar to prove that it has a special place, and the director thinks it can provide Pim. A good environment for painting is not the person involved. I can’t tell where the “good” is, but I guess the bar and home are the same as Pim. I can draw here too. Of course, can this alone be used as a title? Hmm..., I just said that the director's arrangement is not as unfounded as expected, nothing more. Although the image of "Beihai" is not very prominent, alas :-(. The

film is a decent 90 minutes, and supposedly enough time to explain things, but the director seems to want to display as many details as possible, leading to the film It’s too tight, and I even wonder if some plots have been cut abruptly. For example, when pim took a bath towel for "Pecking Egg", if arranged, it should have the effect of adding points to the film. When pim got up and took the bath towel, it was gone?! What a pity. Because of the compactness, the story feels a bit rushed. Each plot is very concise, and there is a feeling that the meaning is still unfinished. Comparing to a cube, most people have only one side, and some are somewhat incomplete, like novice works. Of course, this also has something to do with the performance of the actors. From the shooting background, the casting seems to be not smooth, and there may be some It must be related.


Of course, there are still good aspects. The director is very good at expressing the beauty of the picture. For example, when the little pim opens the window at the beginning, it has a..., dreamy feeling, and the reeds in the afternoon, the warm and soft sun shines through. The sparse part of the reeds shines into the reeds, and the lake surrounded by the reeds is also glowing with warm yellow-green contrasting light; in the misty night, looking at the distant buildings in the night scene, the little lights are embedded in the night scene, you can vaguely distinguish At the horizon, the night is getting deeper and deeper, everything seems very quiet; there is also a gleam of light on the beach covered by bright moonlight, followed by waves surging forward under the moonlight; finally, the sea surface is a ribbon-shaped sticker. On the wide beach belt, the uppermost layer is the blue sky, and the three constitute a wide space that can accommodate everything, and so on.

There is also the soundtrack, especially the melodious female voice, which brightens the plot every time it appears. There is also a faint wind-chime-like sound when the two are playing pistols alone in the same room, as if they are recording this wonderful moment. There is also a very funny song "teach me, tiger", and I have never seen such a small film and record player, so cute ;-).


I like the quiet atmosphere of the film. There is nothing particularly outstanding. The transition of the whole film is smooth. Everyone seems to be reluctant to give more effort. Only the puppy is the hardest performer. They bark hard, bite hard, and stretch hard. Head (when pim mother's first fat boyfriend came, the dog barked and bit, but when the "pecking egg" hugged it, it was obediently, and he kept his head towards pim, talking about the dog The dog is fainted happily, it was too expensive to be held by a handsome guy but stretched out to lick the pim, huh ^v^).

As for the plot, first of all, when Pim was very young, he had the desire to be close to handsome guys, fantasizing that he is a lady who is served by a girl, and fantasizing that he is a beauty queen (reminds me of the kid paper in "crazy"). What is the concept in that small head? Does that show that a person is gay? Is it possible to show such a complicated sexual orientation from a young age? Can't it be regarded as a child's pure play? If there were signs when I was young, don't people now live very well and live very naked, because the family already knows it, 囧. But Pim's mother didn't seem to think about this at all, presumably the place must have been simple and honest at that time.

In addition, this child's paper is from a single-parent family, and the mother is very irresponsible (I have almost never seen her cook since I was a child, but Pim made it for himself). These seem to be the necessary reasons for deciding a person to become a friend. But maybe genes can tell everything. What I mean is that no matter what the external environment is, the genes that play a certain role in the body are the root cause. However, I also believe that everyone has such genes, so..., forget it, let's not talk about it.

In fact, the role of mother is still somewhat inked. Although she is not a competent mother, she has her own ideas. I like to play the organ, and I am eager to travel around and meet different people. The last thing to leave should be to live out of yourself, and to carry out the incompetence (but it is a bit thunderous to think about it, this is also unreliable to be a mother).

The person "Pecking Egg" reminds me of Orlando Bloom. They look alike, and there is a passerby in "Adela's Extraordinary Adventure" that is also very similar to Orlando. I also heard Orlando said in an interview before. I am the face of the public, and I always thought he was humble, but it turned out to be really so~~~^v^.

Let’s talk about the place where the story took place, Belgium, ha ha, it also reminds me of a movie "The Killer Has No Holidays", which makes me think that Belgium is a quiet little place. Sure enough, the small village in this movie fits this characteristic very well. , The two families are not far apart, but the child didn’t know until the end that they were half-parents. It can be seen that the folk customs should be simple and no one talks about. In terms of sexual cognition, the two were only engaged in a psychological struggle on their own, and the others did not realize that there was something wrong, until the little girl discovered the secret of the painting, but the situation did not change much. It seems that no one else in the base story of the whole film directly intervened, and they all did their own things. The director let the two decide for themselves whether to go on, and it was gratifying that the last two walked together.

The section with the two tents is the most loving section. Although it may only be a plane flight, it is also very exciting to touch, kiss, caress, and linger in a small space, sharing secrets that only they know.

Painting should be the easiest way to put your thoughts on.
Collecting all the things used by the likes is a bit like that, but it can be seen as a way to release excessive desire (eager to possess each other?).

In fact, I am a little skeptical. Their affairs are similar to those of the two people who are lingering in the tent, and then they also look for opportunities to go to sparsely populated places. Gino proposed a compromise idea when walking on the beach, suggesting that everyone should be "normal." Stable days. The secret was also discovered by the sister, but it was not broken in the end. Burn the memories of the past. Struggling to push to the wall to kiss. Someone died. Taking off your clothes into the water and so on, the bridges are more or less reference (or tribute) to it.

In fact, the characters in it have some influence on Pim's life, but it seems that they are all downplayed, and it seems that he only lives in his own world, and even his mother doesn't understand his thoughts.

The film shows a sense of loneliness. Pim has lived in his own secret world from childhood to most. It is not until someone decides to stay in his world to have a good result. Although the director's skills are lacking and the actors are not so good, but the simple and happy to permanent feeling is worth remembering.
