Past obsessions, and injuries.

Those who are not too smart and obsessed should be able to feel the same way... Those phantom pursuits, no one understands the meaning of them, and even oneself does not know why they have to pursue and prove it.

It is interesting to use Cowherd + pimps who are completely contrary to mainstream values. Why is he determined to be a cowherd, "confident" and "I'm good at it"? Why can't he just polish his shoes?

Is this an ideal or a dream bubble, or just "healing"?

...

God, I was wrong, I'm not a villain, even this "dream" is a bit dazzling, but it trapped me deeply and hurt myself.

Please allow me to take care of what I love, so that I can take care of myself. Compromise, give up, it doesn't matter anymore, just live your life down-to-earth.

"If it's too late..."

The director is really amazing. He stayed in the misery of the dead end for so long, but he kept the story from being emotional and created so many small joys to make the plot come alive. The whole film is full of sadness like a huge wave, but the process is neither boring nor procrastinating. (Let me cry a little longer)

    Through the background of Joe and Hoffman's life, the camera paints New York as a bleak, nightmarish wilderness. In this wilderness, two suffering hearts are slowly approaching. The film avoids the topic of homosexuality, and all the scenes related to the same sex are critical, such as the poor boy's vomiting. In the age of hippie, the romance in the dumpster and the sunshine in Miami seemed so unreal. And the reason why the audience is uncomfortable is mostly because they know that this is true

    My name is Rico, my home is in Florida, a cowboy from the south, would you like to help me, who can't walk, to pursue the sunshine and warmth together. Lonely strangers, people on the edge of the city, psychedelic clips, unreachable beaches and coconut trees, sadness that cannot be wiped away.
