starry sky and tomatoes

I don't like watching too many movies in a day, I feel that it is too late to "clear my mouth" and my mind will become dizzy. But after watching Wild Dog, I regret not watching Heaven and Hell together.

A real master, it's really comfortable to watch, there's nothing pretentious at all, what he sees is life, every character's laughter and tears are abundant, the habitual thief lies down and looks at the starry sky without any scruples, and the young man living in the broken wooden house writes about himself The cat abused and crumpled the note, the broken husband smashed the tomatoes, the dancer who yearned for the gorgeous dress in the window spun wildly. "Every tear has salt", all people's happiness, sinking, stubbornness and struggle, in this uneven world, everyone really exists, with their innocence, perseverance, cunning, madness, and weak. There is no preaching in the film.

I just watched the movie, and my mind is full of thinking, the criminal police and You Zuozhen could not be better than a set of comparisons, thinking that this is after the war in Japan, thinking that people do evil more because of inner evil or the environment? And now, I still reminisce every scene in the movie, every twist and metaphor, that kind of agitation is still in my heart, but the answer is no longer important.
