This film was adapted from Wang Shuo's novel "Ferocious Animals". I watched the film again a few months ago, and I recently read the original book, which deepened my feelings.

There is a sentence in the novel that explains the origin of the title - "I was like a ferocious animal at that time. It was nothing to be kept in a cage, but if it was released, it would endanger others" (to the effect). That kind of ferocious wildness may we call it "the restlessness of youth". The movie is very faithful to the original book, with only some minor changes and additions, and shows the essence of the novel almost as it is.

I like bright sunshine, watery years, simple ideas and rough lines. Memories have been distorted and their images changed, but as long as you can smell the fragrance of love, who cares what is true and what is false?

    Originally, I wasn't interested in the daydream of an old man who flirted with girls when he was young. But when I thought that those past years would never come back, those fine memories would eventually become a thin layer of sand on the iris, no longer clear and identifiable as before, then I chose to come back and give Jiang Wen a call Five stars. (What the hell is this written about)
