Life is not the same as the movie, life is much harder

The first time I knew the name of this movie was in my senior year of high school. At that time, there were no resources and no time, and it was just a period when the mind was more active. At that time, I had not yet begun to experience society, and I had not yet accepted the baptism of the college entrance examination. Heaven was still heaven, and the roots were branded in my mind.

In a hurry, I don't know what I have been busy with in these days. If I can only get the so-called maturity, I don't care. I finally finished watching this movie today, it's not the full version, but the time is so cruel, what I witnessed is nothing but the helpless sighs of Duoduo and Elena. I don't want to see these sad things, I wish I saw less suffering and separation, it seems like being compassionate and soft-hearted is everyone's fault, and I don't want to understand why.

The infatuated man who repeats his lines, the handkerchief that wipes his tears in the delivery, the audience who has watched a movie ten times and is taken away by the police, the square is my loyal guardian, the shrewd businessman of Neapolitan, the traditional and devout priest, and That sleeper who went to heaven and was being teased all the time, I can only think so much. There are them in life, they live in that era, and they should be in the movie. Don't hide, don't pretend, cry is crying, laughing is laughing, I like this feeling, I often compare myself to one of the characters, watching a movie about love in a corner of the cinema, at the climax, waiting for A kiss, and then a moment of loss.

That is the memory of a generation. The projector was born too early for me. When I became sensible, he had gradually withdrawn from the stage of the times. The natural love for vicissitudes is destined to make me passionate about sallow, and I like that era, the world that still belonged to Haizi.

Evert tells that story, and the soldier and the princess, the tragedy of tragedy, seems to have begun to predict the future. Even though the road is bumpy, he still insists on moving forward. The call of his first love makes Duoduo open the curtain of tragedy. For love, I am always clumsy, for tragedy, I always feel heartache. I don’t know where the love comes from, and occasionally I am intoxicated by the impact of separation and sadness on the heart. People are two-sided, maybe they are alone for too long.

When the common people fall in love with the princess, the ending is often predictable. Why does progress always come so late? When the man became famous, the princess was no longer there, so the common man began to desperately recall the past, bit by bit, like a family treasure. Evert said, "I don't want to hear you anymore, I want to hear people talk about you." He waited. Mr. Shavetudivido is famous all over the world, and it is still related to the movie, but the most talked about is Evert himself. The main line of time is always telling the audience that this era does not belong to the projector; the wrinkles and hair of the cinema also imply that the audience should start to observe silence now, and the explosion is already on its way.

Duo Duo got what he had dreamed of as a child, something Evert had promised him, only at the last moment of his life. I can endure Duoduo not getting Elena; Duoduo has abandoned his mother for 30 years, which can be accepted in his mother's words, but the most unbearable thing is the nostalgia for the past decades later. And when my movie will start showing, I can tell in a split second, who can tell me? Is it a person sobbing or a group of people hugging their heads and crying, who can tell me?
