Miss those who have no connection to the past.

We will start to miss those who have no connection with the past. The one that touched me the most in this movie. Everyone who is alone will miss those who have no connection with the past. Those who cannot go back may have been cruelly treated by the past and their hometown. The heroine finally returned to Brooklyn. Even if she belonged to her past hometown, she extended a stable olive branch. Even though her hometown gave her the future she dreamed of, she still left. Resolutely leave, let go of the mother's nostalgia and cherish friendship. Remember why you left your hometown? Because of study, because of work, because of the pursuit of an uncertain alien, or a person? Why can't you go back? Is it the reason for leaving? Perhaps, we have all been cruel to each other in the past. Just like in the movie, the deceased hometown never gave her a future; the past hometown, like the owner of the grocery store, was harsh and mean to her; the past hometown brought the suppression of talent. She was in her hometown, never found her place, never found her own light. And the experience outside the hometown cannot be understood by the people of the past. Why do people like to wander? Because of the small hope of the unconfirmed alien; or, when looking at the future, seeing the light. Many people who leave their hometowns never return. Many times, I also wonder, as a person who is not in my hometown, whether homesick will affect me particularly deeply. The hometown in my memory, a small town in the north, has some good qualities and some bad habits; in my memory, it does not accommodate introverted and sensitive people very much. The sensitive self has always been out of tune. After I left my hometown, I realized that being sensitive and introverted is not a bad character; I realized that some people were like me; I realized that being independent is what many people look like. Therefore, the hometown of memory is stable and closed (I only refer to the environment where I live), I will want to go back when I am very tired, and sleep comfortably at home, I know that I always have to leave. In a place other than my hometown, I met someone who I wanted to be with for the rest of my life. Although, the person who wanted to be with him for a lifetime still went somewhere else.

    The sudden revelation of the little black house is also amazing, the old woman must be an alien
