Youth is young, ignorant and confused.
What I think about all day long, all is floating life, and finally becomes nothingness.
The past is like a fleeting year, and I personally experience and understand it. I hope you and I can share it!
Today, I use this film as a bait to explore the footprints of youth!

After a while of small talk, let's use wine as a song and talk about the geometry of life!
Characters
Year of the Dancing Spoon Cole! Youth is budding, love is beginning to blossom, innocent and less intelligent, simple and dazed.
Cardamom Age Bee! In the Mood for Love, with outstanding graceful appearance, but helplessly go astray, and eventually self-destruct the future.
The friendship, entanglement, and confusion between the two protagonists continued from the beginning to the end, and became the focus of the whole film.
Story
Prequel
The ignorant Cole (the little protagonist) is infatuated with the young and beautiful Bee (the nanny). The big boy who was overwhelmed by hormones can no longer distinguish the boundary between sensibility and rationality! Faint tricks appear frequently, obey Bee's words! "Youth impulse" completely conquered "rational thinking", the consequences can be imagined.
Medium
Bee proposes to Cole to hold a secret party at home (not to tell the parents), the teenager is once again confused and acquiesced. As a result, the ordinary party turned into a terrifying sacrifice, the blood sacrifice ceremony was officially launched, and Cole's journey of self-redemption began.
Part 2
The "open hanging" teenager became more and more courageous. Under the unfavorable situation of escaping the pursuit of Bee and his party, Cole used various methods (fancy) to madly abuse the enemy, and finally escaped as he wished (according to the script), and the opponent was completely wiped out ( Bee did not hang, "resurrection" in the easter egg).
Growth
Human growth can be divided into two parts, "physical growth" and "psychological growth".
The former is inseparably related to "growth of age"; the latter is inextricably linked with "own experience".
In this work, Cole's growth obviously belongs to the latter, purely psychologically mature and grown up.
"Farewell to inferiority complex" (no longer bullied by classmates)
↓↓
"Building trust" (mistaking Bee as a confidant)
↓↓
"Know Yourself" (Dare to show your heart to Bee)
↓↓
"Awakening of Self-Will" (face-to-face with Bee's gang, say "no" to "sin")
↓↓
"Self-healing" (seeing the truth and saying goodbye to the past)
Maybe everyone's growth trajectory is different, but the road to psychological maturity is similar. In Cole, every audience can more or less find their childhood imprint.
Curious Articles
comedy + youth + horror
The trend of mixing and matching has been scraped from the fashion industry to the film and television industry. It is simple enough, rough enough, and curious enough!
In the film, the director uses the structure of a comedy film (a lot of funny dialogues and exaggerated body language are incorporated into the plot), matches the content of a youth film (little kid VS five bad boys), and integrates it into the picture of a horror film (bloody, violence ). , evil), created this B-level film, which is a little amazing.
The book is not exhaustive, so I put it on hold. In the end, I also end with some of my own life insights.
The year of no confusion is busy and rarely free.
Concentrate on self-cultivation, stay away from fame and wealth, and keep the clouds and winds light.
Director★★★☆☆ (a wonderful mix, the director's idea is a bit interesting)
Actors ★★★★☆ (Judah Lewis' acting is beyond the age limit, Samara Weaving is suffocating)
Plot ★★★☆☆ (old-fashioned, but not boring, mainly because many new elements are interspersed)
Visual effects ☆☆☆☆ (the special effects are too bad, it feels like a fake)
Sound effects ★★☆☆☆ (Queen's classic track "we are the champions" at the end, bold enough, magnificent enough, nothing else)
Recommendation ★★☆☆☆ (B-level movie, mix and match show, just to kill time, have nothing to do when you are full, you can take a look)
