a life

Maybe watching it now, this movie entered the deepest part of my heart all at once.
I just like old movies, swept away all the vanity, slow down all the chasing, one step at a time, with space and rhythm, with reservation and tension. Some of the current movies or American dramas have the advantage of allowing the audience to keep up with the pace of life, but when you watch it for a long time, you will inevitably find that everything is just a consumer product for instant entertainment. When people are bound by the pressure of life, the sense of superiority as a person seems to gradually fade away.
When we transformed, do we really know what we are turning into? We say life is wonderful, or is it just that we believe life should be wonderful? Cauze if it's not, we would be overwhelmingly sad. And what is future, you may say no one knows. Or, it could be that no one has the very interest to know that. Cauze, for too long, we drench ourselves in maintaining the status quo, to justify our lust. The
male lead is handsome and the female lead is beautiful. But the movie doesn't over-exaggerate this, which is something I'm comfortable with. I have always disliked that kind of exaggeration that kidnapped your aesthetics.
For the entertainment of a short vacation, it is worth choosing such a movie. Sometimes, the mood decides a lot. Haha I am obsessed.
There is still too much to say. If you say it, you will feel that you have said it wrong. It is enough to grasp it yourself.
