youth music

Just finished watching "First Love, This Love Song", about youth, about first love, about music, about ideals, and about the future. The songs in it are nice, warm, and interesting, and they can make you laugh out loud in many places. This is a youth movie. It is the third part of the director's trilogy, and the other two are "Once" and "Meet You in New York Again", all of which are musical. That is, most of the time in it is music, loving songs. "Once" is about two ordinary people, a man is a street singer, a woman is a flower seller, and the tacit understanding in music produces love. But in the end, we didn't get together. It's still that sentence. Unfortunately, we remember it more deeply. "Go Again" is a frustrated middle-aged male music producer and a very talented female creator. She helped her boyfriend write songs, but his boyfriend abandoned her after he became popular. The two walked together and shared music. It ended up being a great album. Due to lack of funds, it is also creative. They recorded songs in open-air streets, and the final performance was amazing. The three movies have some similar, lighthearted, nice music. But there are differences. "First Love" still has the spirit of walking away, rebellious youth, and the meaning of breaking through the bondage. It is more relaxed and humorous than the other two movies, and it is a part of comedy. (Among them, the serious and rigid Christian headmaster who sticks to the rituals inexplicably turned over several somersaults, hahaha.) "Once" seems to resonate with the hearts of young literary and artistic youths, no kissing, no sex. (Although the result was not together.) The name of "Go Again" sounds like the meaning of finding yourself back, which is really good. The translation name is slightly pitted, what is New York meeting you, it feels like Beijing meeting Seattle.

The correct way to open the youth film, in the end, I still made up a disaster film.

John Carney's musical taste has to be praised, but that's only the highlight; young people can dream, but don't indulge in dreams, after all, the adult life of going out to fight monsters is inevitable.

Eamon: So how do you mean you're "happy-sad"?
Darren: Yeah, how're we supposed to market that?
Conor: It means we're not pop anymore.
Eamon: We were pop? Listen, I'm happy being anything. I just want to play music.
Conor: That's fine. Be who you are, Eamon.
Eamon: Well, I don't know who I am. Maybe I'm happy-sad, too. I don't know.

Darren: What does "happy-sad" even mean? How can we be both things? It makes no sense.
Conor: It means that I'm stuck in this shithole full of morons and rapists and bullies, and I'm gonna deal with it, okay? It's just how life is. I'm gonna try and accept it and get on with it, and make some art.
Eamon: So how does that affect our music?
Conor: Positively.
