It should be in the fall of 2002. Commander Yu and I went to Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology to find female students to play. There was a slogan in the school: Beifu Beifu, and never accepted. It sounds like the sisters inside must be very rebellious. After meeting, I was disappointed, and it was all the way of "Rui Li" magazine. On my way back home, I passed by a newsstand and saw a magazine with a kraft paper cover. Visually, it was quite reactionary. It seemed to be stronger than "Popular Songs". On the bus back home, the two of us scrambled to read the content inside. In fact, many articles were written quite reactionary and encouraged you to be a living idiot, just like "Free Music" many, many years ago. The cancers of the audio-visual publication number publishing with books are a common practice. It really tastes like two dicks cooking vegetables.
The bands introduced in the magazine are either the scum in the medicine jar, or the roots of Huanglian, or they are the bosses of the bitter children. So when you see "The Pancakes" it's like seeing an oasis. She is different from the "mixed model workers" sisters you usually meet when you go to the show. She is very fresh and free, and she is like a stubborn little beast. For example, you drink too much on Christmas night, gloves I lost it, and I finished smoking. I felt very disappointed to see a little snow rabbit in the snow. The pure white body merged with the crystal clear nature, and all kinds of natural and innocent atmospheres permeated between the two of you. I want to calm down and touch it. Suddenly, Little Snow Rabbit raised her body, kicked her legs, and ran away, disappearing without a trace, except for a yellow area on the snow. It turned out that she urinated, and wild. This is The Littlest Rebel.
It just so happens that the introduction page of "The Pancakes" in the magazine also lists her personal profile, which must be common in classmates such as birthday constellations and blood types. One of my favorite movies is "Gummo". In order to keep up with the pace of nihilistic idols, every time I go to a pirated DVD store in Xinjiekou, I will ask if there is "The True Story of Golden Retriever", and the answer I always get is: No, there is "The True Story of Ah Fei" Want it?
Following the movie's English name, I found the movie's official website and few stills online. It's all about Solomon and Tummler and Bunny Boy. Anyway, for a superficial brat like me, Solomon's geeky Pinhead looks really appealed to me. I always speculate on the plot of the movie based on the environment in the stills.
It was like this for 2 years. In 2004, I didn't like "The Pancakes" anymore. Commander Yu also served Wu Sangui from Yunnan. After two years of military service, we continued to do nothing and wander around on the street. Go to bootleg DVD stores, drink the cheapest beer, try to meet the most rebellious girl or the most casual girl. Take him to dinner with him and the young people who have been missing for the past two years, and spend all his demobilization and demobilization expenses.
When I met my buddy who took me to listen to Beastie Boys - when he was bonsai, he threw me "The Strange Kid" and "Donkey Julianne", although the translations were different, but I could see at a glance that this was what I was looking for In the two years of "Golden Retriever", I have been holding the plate and said to Commander Yu: There is also a duo in this film, which is much stronger than "Kevin & Perry Go Large", and it will be our imitation target in the future. Make up for the blank two years of your life.
The wasted time in the movie where the characters are disjointed is really similar to the way we both live. I didn't have a diploma, I didn't learn anything in school, and I couldn't imagine what kind of job I could get. And Commander Yu has never encountered any suitable job assignments since he came back. Basically, they are bus conductors and park gatekeepers. We just watched "Gummo" over and over again, and thought which paragraph was the most dashing and which line was the most masculine.
I still remember every scene in it to this day. The picture quality of the home video tapes showed us the various dilapidated scenes of the town ravaged by the tornado. Lonely Bunny Boy, shivering in the cold wind, spit and urinated on the bridge across the street. Big boy Tummler and little sidekick Solomon flashed by on BMX, their daily activity is to hunt domestic and stray cats around town with air guns on their backs, and then sell them to the black buddies in the grocery store for some money Come and buy glue to suck up a bag. On the way to find prey, you will also pass by the junkyard, which is the site of the Cow Boys, and everyone who steps in will be repaired by them, and Bunny Boy has suffered from their abuse. Still, the bitches in town - Helen and Darby still love Bunny Boy and invite him to the pool on a rainy day.
The whole town is freaks, trash, trash. Tummler's father and unemployed adults have been drinking together in the house all the year round, fighting each other's arms, and the losers throw their anger on the folding chairs, trying to become "Chair Wrestler" to save face. The Skinhead brothers were probably the strongest and most combative of their age, and when there was no enemy, they beat each other.
After capturing and integrating the life fragments of all residents into more than 80 minutes, the conclusion is that the residents after the tornado have no vitality at all, and only the albino girl's yearning for love conveys a positive attitude.
We can only be like the numb people in the movie, the will is more fragile than jelly, lying on the sofa, drinking beer, watching over and over again, talking about which girl in the movie wants to have a sex with her the most, not me Where to submit a resume. I take it for granted that it is normal for all 22-year-olds who are at the crossroads of their lives and haven't met the devil who makes you sell your soul to be negative for a few years. Any ideal enthusiasm sounds like a luxury. Because life has not set foot on the normal and regular track, I feel that reality is nothing more than this. It's the right way to live in the moment, live in the moment, and live in the moment. Since you're forced to go to the Naihe Bridge, let's have a happy children's meal at McDonald's. Tomorrow is just the second day after the sun rises as usual, consume it if you want, don't care at all.
After wasting the National Day in 2005, Commander Yu found a suitable job, accepted the recruitment of the Ministry of Railways, and became the stone lion of the West Railway Station. I was somewhat shocked, and I started to hold the mouse and draw comics to stop myself from sinking. No more watching Gummo.
After I started working, I felt more and more that time passed by so quickly. Is the Earth's autobiography speeding up or is my life more fulfilling? Reminds me of the bitches on "Gummo" bouncing around on the bed singing Buddy Holly's "Everyday." After getting rid of the life of a stinky bastard, every day really passes as fast as a roller coaster, and it is gone forever. It's ruthless to blame the old man of time!
We always like to catch a curious point when watching movies, fun, bastards, and bullshit, but ignore the creativity and observation of director Harmony Korine, and forget how to convert these negative emotions into productivity and convert them into RMB. When we were young, we were always caught by the coolness and coolness on the outside, and we magnified the emotional side of our hearts infinitely. We couldn’t wait to get into the funny circle and hold hands with them. If you ask me what practical things I can do, I can only use what I learned from him and Richard Linklater to capture the fur in the moments of daily life into the comics, which is my homage and a reminder of the absurd years.
Addendum:
1. "Gummo" was ranked 39th among the 50 most disturbing movies by www.complex.com .
2. The film was shot in Nashville, Tennessee. The film's budget was $1 million, and it didn't hit the box office as expected, but it didn't stop it from breaking into the ranks of classic cult films.
3. Actress Chloë Sevigny, who played the little bitch Dot, was Harmony Korine's girlfriend at the time; in addition, she also served as the costumer in the film, and the actors wore some of their own clothes and some of her local clothes. Bought at a thrift store.
4. Nick Sutton as Thummler was discovered by Harmony Korine while watching The Sally Jesse Raphael Show. At that time, Nick Sutton was interviewed on the topic of "My Child Died From Sniffing Paint". The host asked him what your expectations for the future were. Nick Sutton replied coolly: "I may die." This move made Harmony Korine stubbornly believes that Nick Sutton is definitely the best choice to play Thummler.
5. Most of the featured characters in the film are Harmony Korine's local friends. They are not professional actors and are very enthusiastic to help Harmony Korine complete the film, such as the Skinhead brothers.
6. Those tortured cat corpses in the movie were replaced with taxidermy.
7. The entire film took just four weeks to shoot, with most of the footage shot in particularly late days. The crew had been waiting for rain for the Bunny Boy kiss in the pool on a rainy day.
