Youth Cruel Story

They live in the suburbs of Paris. They live in poverty, have no work, nothing to do, and no future. There is only the flames of youth burning wildly, spouting in the black and white images. So many classic films have shown the restlessness and cruelty of youth. Compared with it, "Guling Street Juvenile Murder" seems too indulgent in personal love, "Sunny Day" is too blind and ignorant, "Guesting the Train" is too indulgent and decadent, "City of God" is too violent and indifferent. "All About Lily Zhou" seems too desperate and fragmented... And this "Rage of Youth" shows more direct anger and impulsivity. You can't see the love of children, you can't see the clouds of righteousness, and you can't see the joyful enjoyment. It's almost the same as its black and white images throughout. Without the bright colors that burst out naturally, all you can see is foul language, violence, idle idleness, uncompromising quarrels, and endless conflicts and hatreds against the police. Anger is more like an innate instinct in them. For people who do not conform to their wishes, their anger will be ignited in an instant, not for freedom, dignity and so on. It is a natural physiological response. Especially for those policemen who are not much different from gangsters, they don't need any time to brew their emotions, the fire of anger will suddenly burst out of the body, fuck! If there is the coolest thing in the world, it is a beating! In fact, they are not bad. They still have the same simple language and actions towards their families as ordinary people. Apart from their courage, they rarely take the initiative to attack other people except the police, even if those people are extremely extreme. disdainful. They also had a lot of cowardly times. Facing the police chase, they often flee, and when they were caught, they also tried to suppress their emotions obediently. Even though he held the gun to the head of the gangster, and after struggling with a trembling, he put down the muzzle sensibly. If there is no escape from the last policeman, the shots of shooting the policeman are just gestures and fantasy in their heads. They also don't want to go to jail, and they are afraid of killing. Those angry fires that gush out have not been transformed into hot-headed impulsive behaviors, and they have to burn everything in an instant. They are more like a group of children who are still young and exiled in the wilderness. When they have nothing, they can only ignite their youth, ignite a wild fire around them, sitting alone in the ring of fire. Shaking, this fire is not to hurt anyone, but to protect yourself from the howls of the wild beasts. "There is too much repentance and shyness in this world, too little confession, too little vent, too fast to destroy" "Don't yell, let Chunqing surging stronger than wild grass, stronger than iron and stone, buried on me" "Don't yell, let youth grow fuller than fierce arrogance than the universe It's overflowing on me" ————Da Ming's "Youth Cruel Story"
