Quentin's Endless Flower

Quentin himself once said that "King Kong Is Not Bad" is his worst movie. After watching it, it is indeed a simple plot, monotonous elements, and it also develops in chronological order. It is not Quentin very much. The number of headshots is far higher than any other. But it is a Quentin film that is most from a female perspective. Especially the setting of the road movie and the revenge of the girls are simply the end of the Quentin version.

The film is a two-stage structure, two separate short stories, with identical character settings. A couple of girls, go outside and have fun. And because of the different personalities, there are completely different endings.

The girls from the first group are Shanna, Jungle Julie and Arlene. The film begins with a trip to the lakeside cabin, where they discuss intimacy with men in the car, expressing that they don't actually like being "the thing". Shanna warned people not to take men to the lake house, while jungle julie, a radio dj, said she played a prank on the radio to lap dance if anyone could retell a poem to arlene. Then they went to the bar to drink, put on the jukebox, and danced sultry dances, while their male partners tried their best to get a few girls drunk enough to go to base. Jungle Julie looks cool, but in fact has been waiting eagerly for a man to come. Jungle Julie has two big billboards with her graceful figure printed on it, and she was also complained by her old classmates because she worked hard to get it up. Stuntman mike asks arlene to lap dance, arlene initially disagrees, and then gets excited to dance too. As a result, it is a scene with the most blood in the film, with arms and legs flying around, and all members ko.

The second paragraph also started with several girls kim, zoe and abernie discussing intimacy with men in the car. A girl also expressed the importance of not letting men go to base to get them, and was teased by her peers for not having sex life. The conversation that followed was completely irrelevant to men. A few girls began to tell their own anecdotes, and they began to discuss driving a 70-year-old white dodge for sale to have fun. A few female men started to play, put on cool leather jackets and gloves, and did dangerous moves for excitement. Then he was harassed by stuntman mike and nearly killed. And these girls are not vegetarians, Kim and Zoe are also stunt performers. (In other words, the zoe actor himself is the stand-in for Bride in Kill Bill. In the recent Hateful Eight, he continues to act as a substitute). After escaping the danger, he wounded his arm with a gun first, and then he never forgave him, pursued him relentlessly, and finally let Mike's evil be rewarded. (The last boot...)

Two pursuits, two outcomes. Quentin said bitterly here, girls, a little pursuit, don't revolve around men every day, don't use your body as a bargaining chip to attract men, get a life around yourself, be a cool girl and fuck the world! It's awesome. Have you ever seen Quentin speak up so sincerely for women? Doesn't this deserve a 4 star?

    Poor people have to come to make movies like this, fight to death

    The man was on it in the first half and the woman was on it in the second half. The climax is of course in the second half, nonsense!
