We were

At the beginning of the film, there are noisy young people in the auto repair shop showing off how to attract women’s attention. The adolescent hairy boy looked in his eyes and put on a leather jacket in front of the mirror to learn. A scene where the power attracts the girl's eyes. But in fact, not long after, he was beaten on the ground by a big boy in front of his girlfriend, riding a motorcycle away in disgrace, and then venting his briefly broken male dignity to a ball on the football field.

The second scene of the movie comes to a hospital. There is an old man talking and a young woman weeping. Their relatives came to see them. It was originally a romantic scene where the hero and the hero met, but the shots were handed over to the noisy crowd and the "weird" adults in the two families, uncontrollable dog barking and bad little girls. To play. Even the grandfather who was visited suddenly wept and sobbed amidst the excitement, telling his loneliness, deep and helpless loneliness. It seems that a romantic movie should start with the loneliness of an old man in the evening.

But at that time, I didn’t know that such a romance still had to end with the "ridiculous" adults in these two families. A group of people dragged their wet bodies in the thick mist, and bowed their heads with their own annoyance. , Walking emotionally, while the boy carried the girl on his back, the two looked at the group of exhausted adults who were unable to explain more with their slightly curious eyes—their young love occupies their hearts and the outside world. negligible.

What is the love of a boy? I had forgotten it a long time ago, and I remembered it after watching the movie. I think of the days when I appeared in front of my favorite boys on the playground, at the door of the class, grade games, basketball courts, and roller skating rinks, with indifferent appearance, but my eyes drifted away from time to time; there were also those days when I was young. Thug boys and girls are jealous and fight for the wind. These movies are all, only to realize that the feelings and self-esteem of boys and girls are so obvious and funny to outsiders.

And these plots that make people laugh from the heart are all mixed in the complex emotions of adults. The failed father released emotional violence in the family, while the mother cried silently, but they all became a decent family the moment they went out. The unmarried aunt told the little girl about the plight of her choice, while experiencing a new emotional experience, being dragged into the car by her boyfriend roughly, it still seemed as if nothing had happened afterwards. Business parents with affluent families are quiet and speechless, and they sing and harmonize when talking, which is extremely boring.

There is no perfect family or couple in the film, only the carefree love that a perfect teenager can have. They are people who really live in the present, they have not yet carried any burdens, have not been hurt to the lingering heart, and believe that life is full of hope, and the most important thing is to love each other. Even the process of their falling in love is so simple as just a glance.

Adults are not beautiful at all, but every adult has been a happy and energetic teenager. We have all experienced it, and then become who we are step by step, and will choose to become us in the next stage. No one would have the choice of Peter Pan, everyone became brave and became Wendy. Those young and pure loves won't even come to my heart quietly in the middle of a night.
