Definitely not inferior to the "Godfather" movie

For an audience in their early 20s, The Godfather discusses something that seems too far away. We can't understand it, but we like it very much.

"Betta" is different. It has the same production level as "The Godfather", but it discusses the values ​​of young people. Do we have enough living space? Should I always pursue freedom? We might as well ask ourselves the questions discussed in the film. I believe this is also a question that people in their 20s (especially boys) often think about. Compared with "The Godfather", he is closer to our lives, and the issues discussed are more general.

The entire movie was deliberately shot in black and white, only the fighting fish in the movie has color. Just to highlight the theme to be represented.

The last long shot also has a profound meaning. It portrays various attitudes towards the death of a liberal. Then the camera is back to the younger brother riding a motorcycle at the seaside, symbolizing that liberalism will never die.

This movie is a bible, a bible for young people and a bible for liberals.

Truly a buried movie.

    20210611 seen. Although such a confused and directionless youth film is not my thing, but there are several scenes that still amaze me, especially the flowing long shot at the end, the death of a gangster, to the world, it is just a trivial matter, for that matter For a silly younger brother, the impulse to worship his elder brother is the end and a new beginning. Big Cage was so stupid back then~

    During adolescence, we are all fighting fish, fighting with the outside world and with ourselves. Back then, Mickey Rourke was a mess, but now he's old, fat, and his face is puffy.
