I read it for the first time two years ago, and after reading the original, I took it out again today. This movie has always been what I want to write, but I just want to watch it a few more times.
I remember that when I watched it for the first time, I didn't feel much. After reading it, there will be some thoughts. But that night, I couldn't sleep. I recalled my childhood. The feeling seemed to really appear before my eyes, but I couldn't touch it anymore. After reading the novel, I tasted it again today, which was simply too moving. To be fair, this is by no means a film that can make people cry, but I still involuntarily wetted my eyes when I watched it.
Among these four children, either are bad children in the eyes of adults, or children who have done nothing.
Curry stole the milk money from the school, but he returned it back, but was embezzled by the teacher and was wronged as a thief. The people in the town thought he could only be a thief when he grows up. He might give up on himself, but the only thing he wants It is to leave here and find a place where no one knows him, because here he is rejected by everyone.
Teddy is called "the son of a lunatic" and has some mental problems, in many ways from his father. His father is a veteran, but suffers from mental illness. Once Teddy was picked up by his father and pressed on the stove after breaking a plate, his ears were scorched. But he is still proud of his father and hopes that one day he can kill the enemy on the battlefield like him. It's just his natural poor eyesight that kept him out.
And Wein is the kind of person who is timid and afraid of being rejected by all children of the same age, but it's just that these "bad boys" can become good friends with each other.
And Gordon, in the family, is a "transparent person" who is completely despised. The parents gave all the love to his brother Danny. After Danny died, they all lost their souls. And Gordon has always had nightmares, in which his father said to him: "The damn thing is you". He blames himself for nothing, maybe he always blames himself, telling himself that the damn person is really me
These are the four children. When they were most innocent and needed love and protection in their childhood, they were ruthlessly abandoned by the outside world. When they learned that a child had died outside, they wanted to find him and go to the newspaper to become a celebrity. So I embarked on the journey of just walking away.
Is it like this in our childhood? Without worries, I can’t wait to do it when I think of something exciting. Without the careful consideration of adults, there is only desire and courage comparable to adults.
The faint summer painting style in the movie gently stroked my thoughts. The picture of the four children relying on each other, they just embarked on this remote road for a seemingly strange goal.
The biggest feeling in the movie is to understand their lives and mutual feelings. Gordon and Curry play comfortably with each other after being bullied, and Teddy flashes the train crazy. After the quarrel, I quickly reconciled and reconciled to innocence. I really saw that such a group of people had really appeared. The film does not deliberately talk too much in a certain scene, but advances it from their perspective, let us feel the simplicity of childhood like them.
It reminds me of my childhood. The three or five children on the street are small groups that we gather together all day long. Everywhere on the street can be a place for us to play. We will fight for a bag of candy, we will fight for the envy of a strange toy, we will quarrel with a word, and then we will go crazy again in a few minutes. The night is our no home, the day is our new departure. After separation, I discussed the gathering time for tomorrow, and looked forward to tomorrow like a major event.
Just like this day after day. One day I found out that they didn't come to look for me actively, and I didn't look for them anymore. In this way, I went to junior high school. After I went back, I just met with a simple greeting. I made new friends, and so did they, just like this, slowly disappearing on the road of growth. Sometimes we go too far, looking back, they will know you, but you no longer remember them. Sometimes they are far away, and you want to catch up with them, but you can't keep up. Perhaps it was you who went the other way, and disappeared silently.
Even if I don’t remember their names or specific locations now. But when I think back to my childhood, there will always be a few familiar scenes, with friends around me, I like it and I am immersed in it, but when I change my mind, it is too far away.
In the movie, Curry was wronged, and when he confided to Gordon that night, I was touched. Small children will become the bargaining tool among the large population, especially when they are bad children, adults will not give them the education they should have, and children who happen to be the same age can comfort and encourage each other.
The adults are intriguing and eager to get ahead, while the children only care about friends and happiness.
Adults will care about money and desires, while children will be satisfied with a small thing.
Adults will come to think of a thing, but the natural brutality of children will make them directly attached to action
When we accuse children of being naive and ignorant, you don't know that they are their own adults, they have the innocence and innocence that we do not have, and when we work for desire in the flower world, they are happy for themselves.
Speaking of the movie, growth is its true theme. They saw the corpse and forced the other group back. But the idea that they wanted to bring their children back to become celebrities slowly disappeared. The first time they saw the dead body touched them, they changed their minds. He should stay here, not be used as a tool of fame, and rest here well. This may also be their innocent performance and a manifestation of their growth. Growth is also a death encounter
I like the beautiful and longing scenes in the movie, and the big scenes set off the insignificance of these four children. This world is too big for them, but fortunately they have each other, they are their own world.
That afternoon they returned to the crossroads and said goodbye to each other, their childhood that they could not go back to, and their friends who depended on each other. In the days that followed, Gordon and Curry drifted away from Teddy and Wein. They became just two other faces that they met occasionally at school, only nodding and saying hey when they met.
There is such a passage in the novel:
Have you noticed that friends come and go in your life, like waiters in a restaurant come and go all day? But whenever I think about that dream, when I think of the two corpses dragging me into the water, I think this is fine. Some people will perish, that's all, it's not fair, but this is how things are in the world, and some people will perish.
In that dream, Teddy and Wein fell into the water, and I kept pushing up, but they pulled me hard and pulled me into the water. . . . This may be just a nightmare, and it may be true in the days to come. But I still have a chance. I love writing and I have talent. I can go out and become a writer, and they can only live their lives in silence in that small town.
But I have always encouraged Curry, wanting him to go up to school with me. He has always wanted to leave here, but he denied his ability. I finally persuaded him, maybe he was the only friend from my childhood till now.
The author Stephen King wrote himself in the role of Gordon. When he was a kid, he liked to write, but he was said to be insecure by the principal, which left him with a psychological shadow. The original film "Different Seasons" has always been regarded as his most diligent work. This may represent his own childhood. What he used to nostalgia was his hands.
We are still young, can we still be crazy, right?
"This is exactly what I should do at my age, I have only been younger once in my life"
In 1966, Wein was buried in a fire in an apartment where a large drinking party was originally held. Wein was also a guest. Someone fell asleep in one of the bedrooms but forgot to squeeze cigarettes. Maybe It was Wein himself who was dreaming of his jar of coins.
In 1971 or 1972, Teddy was killed in a car accident. Prior to this, he had been working hard to join the army, and anyone who saw his pair of thick glasses and hearing aids knew that there would be no results.
At the end of 1971, Curry went to a snack bar in Portland for dinner. The two people quarreled in front of him. Curry was always the one who was good at making rounds. It was because he was between them to train, and the knife just went into his throat. . Curry died on the spot.
and I? I have indeed become a writer. I remembered that Curry told me before that when I was exhausted, I could use our experience of finding corpses as material, but I am not out of ideas, I just miss them.
After I learned about Curry, I drove to the outskirts, parked the car, and cried for him. I cried for about half an hour.
Just like now, I’m typing in front of the computer. I haven’t seen him for ten years, but I will miss him forever. I never made friends as good as the twelve-year-old group, maybe everyone That's all right.
