a thousand brilliant suns

In my opinion, this is the best Wong Kar Wai movie I've ever seen.

Li Jiaxin sits on the subway every day just to watch the place where Dawn lives on the subway. He will help him clean the house, lay the sheets, and take away the pile of soda cans, hoping to learn about Dawn's life from these things.
She wears heavy makeup, wears short skirts, and her hands are always shaking while holding a cigarette; she masturbates, and then weeps all by herself, saying that she really wants to see him. In the end, if you don't get it, you will be destroyed.
X said, seeing such a beautiful woman masturbating is really uncomfortable.

Dawn always looks like that. He can't see happiness or sadness. Maybe the killer has been doing it for a long time, and people will become like that. He doesn't love her, or I'd more like to interpret it as he doesn't dare to love her because he can't give her anything, he can't be responsible for her. I think, for thousands of years, this has always been a problem for men, even if the man is a prodigal son. So, he's just having a one night stand with everyone because he's afraid.
Later, he wanted to return.
Public relations theory, a person is always in the contradiction of separation and return. When a person wants to leave this society, he looks different; but at the same time he wants to return, because returning has a warm feeling. He wanted to open a shop, he wanted to live a normal life, but he had no chance.

Takeshi Kaneshiro is one of my favorite characters.
He went to massage the pig in the middle of the night, he must wash the hair for the guests, and he must ask the guests to buy ice cream. He lives in his own world.
My favorite shot is of him driving the ice cream van and driving the family on the road, which makes me feel very happy.
Maybe in his opinion, he is happy. Except for his first love.
In fact, a person can have a first love, but also happiness.

Karen Mok and Yang Cai Ni are actually very similar characters.
They are all madly in love with someone.
One has been keeping pre-dawn underwear, the other has been stubbornly looking for Jin Maoling.
It's just that Karen Mok didn't wait, but Caini Yang did.

When watching a film, I will laugh, be depressed, and despair.
However, there is also hope.
For example, Takeshi Kaneshiro's father would get up at midnight to watch his son's DV, and then smile happily; Take
Takeshi Kaneshiro driving an ice cream car on the road; for
example, Caini Yang waited for her beloved.

Although it is a fallen angel, there is always hope, like a thousand brilliant suns.

Fallen Angels quotes

  • The Killer's Agent: Going through a person's trash can tell you a lot about them.

  • He Zhiwu: I was very talkative when I was small. But at age five, I ate a can of pineapple that had expired, and I stopped talking. For that reason, I have very few friends.

    He Zhiwu: I found it very hard to find work too. I finally decided to be my own boss. Having no capital, the only thing I can do is sneak into other people's shops after hours and run my own business. I'm not a freeloader. I just think it makes sense, since the rent's already been paid, to run the business around the clock.

    He Zhiwu: Who says nobody buys pork at 3:00 a.m.? I came yesterday to buy some, didn't I? If you want to do business, you have to take each customer's needs into account.

    He Zhiwu: Buddha said, "If I don't descend into hell, who will?" When you're the boss, you have to be kind, caring and tolerant. You can't just look to your own gain. I know very well there's no such thing as a free lunch, so I always work very hard until the wee hours.

    He Zhiwu: I don't make a lot of money, but I'm happy.
