At the same time, there is a boy who, after his parents' day-to-day arguing and the blandness of life, is full of energy to help a fantasy love story.
However, even in the movie, perfect love is still a phantom, a lover can only be turned into a farewell after a stare at dusk, and the belief in love when young can only be accompanied by the sound of gunfire, and sleep forever in the Mississippi River in the mud at the bottom.
Although I understand that the theme of the movie story is clearly a baptism in the growth of a teenager, looking at the adult world from the perspective of a child can always collide with the spark of simple and complex, immature and mature attitude towards things, and then use similar The feelings of forgetful friendship impress the audience. But from start to finish, I couldn't take my eyes off Mud, such a soulful prodigal son, a wandering soul forever, just like his name, mud, despite its filth, can breed the most beautiful and pure Flowers, in the face of the stirring of the turbulent reality, can always slowly calm down, and the world is so clear. He treats life in a simple and crude way, disdain to use even the slightest human scheming. I think his only mistake is that he wants everyone to be like him, so he is destined to be hurt by girls, destined to only be friends with children, destined to live alone on the banks of the Mississippi, facing the river, miss that 14-year-old girl in love.
If I hadn't met Mud, I'm sure Ellis would have been, to a large extent, another Mud when he grew up. But luckily he met Mud. I also hope that in the next story, Mud will meet a girl who is willing to wander with him forever and guard his pure soul forever.
