grow, change

Recently, the films that are special fans of youth growth make me feel that youth is bad and chaotic. I may be looking for its definition, trying to understand the current me, not useless, but I really found a lot of similarities with me.

I think the similarity between me and the heroine is that they both feel that they are very mature, like when love comes, there are some words, some things you have to do, but when you do it, you feel very stupid and naive. Some things feel childish in your heart, but sometimes you still have to do it and pretend to feel the same as everyone else. The heroine is not good at socializing, and living in her own world is very similar to me, but I will not be self-righteous, I will not be very pretentious, in my opinion, the heroine is still very naive in some places, but I like the feeling that she hates everything .

But I didn't dare to say it like the heroine, maybe I said it all in my heart. I especially envy the people who say everything in their hearts. They are especially straightforward and even simple. The background music is very good, and I feel that it can render people's emotions very well. At the beginning, from the process of getting off the car, walking, to the conversation after sitting down in the classroom, I think it is very cool.

At the end of the film, the heroine has changed. It can be said that she has grown up and knows how to consider others. Many youth films leave when they feel depressed, feel that changing the environment can become better, and then grow in the process. The heroine of this film did not leave, she was still in her own circle, she kept trying to integrate herself, but her method was wrong, because she had to integrate herself first. This film emphasizes personal growth, and does not put too much emphasis on looking at the society and the world from the perspective of adolescence. This film and the heroine set a relatively safe environment, so there will be no major problems. In the end, I feel that there will be a threat of rape, but there is no such thing, so it mainly shows the contradiction between families and friendships.

    Growing up is like squatting on toilet paper that cannot be torn off. Facing the death of your father and suffering from depression, and your good friend sleeping with your perfect brother, you can only use the tragedy of life as an excuse for not finishing your long homework. This is not life. The real life is not that you can fall asleep to your crush by sending a text message, but the other party will really treat you as a brain. It's not that the Asian brother who has a crush on you is absolutely infatuated with a pool villa.

    The ending is too routine, it's completely fake, if the little girl is raped and killed by the boy in the pet shop, the rest of the rich Korean men are all near-death hallucinations, and the Easter egg stretches out a hand from the cemetery to pay tribute to "The Witch Carrie" It also makes sense... In addition, Situ Hayden is 31 and still plays a high school student. Who says foreign countries are all genuine youth films?

  • Nadine: You know, ever since we were little, I would get this feeling like... Like I'm floating outside of my body, looking down at myself... And I hate what I see... How I'm acting, the way I sound. And I don't know how to change it. And I'm so scared... That the feeling is never gonna go away.
