The movie I recommend to you today is the 2004 true story "American Animals". This is not an adaptation of a true story. This is a true story. We must assume that the American animals that originally lived outside the Kentucky caves have degenerated into cave animals from generation to generation- - Darwin. You can get the movie resource by replying to the title of the movie in the background
Googling teens, pops up the entry (Are teens annoying you? Don't reason with them) (Seven taboos for educating teens) (Teens are getting harder and harder to manage). Well, the teenage group seems to be an admittedly troublesome group.
When we are teenagers, we always feel that we are gifted, that we must come with a special person, and that we are not in harmony with other people, because we are too special. So for a long time, we will feel that life has been ruined, the external environment and family do not understand, do not care, and the dreams that we want to achieve are out of reach (or no dreams are aimless, like headless flies flying around) ).
Or, everything can be done step by step according to the trajectory specified by the family, study hard, go to university, study popular majors, have a good job after graduation, follow the steps, and spend the rest of your life in peace.
But people are always full of curiosity, especially us teenagers, we feel that we are too special, too different, we don't want to waste the opportunity to become a great person with such mediocrity, so we often come up and do something Things outsiders can't understand.
Throughout your life others have been telling you that everything you do has meaning and that you are special. Of course, you can easily list things that prove that you are special, that you are special, but in reality, those things are meaningless and you are not special, you are very mediocre.
In 2004, the library of Transylvania University in the United States was stolen. The stolen items included many precious collections such as Darwin's "Origin of Species" and the manuscript of "Birds of America". It is expected to be worth $5 million. The thieves are 4 teenage students, Warren/Spencer/Eric/Chase.
They were all born into middle-class families, each with their own unique talents, Warren (school sports star), Spencer (a great painter), Eric (quick and flexible), Chas (small entrepreneur). These four people had a bright future and an infinite future. They were living their ordinary, safe and carefree youth. However, no one thought that this "notorious case of book theft" was actually what they did.
This teen theft case was made into a movie. The new director Bart confidently wrote at the beginning of the movie, "This is not an adaptation of a true story, this is a true story." The 4 teenagers of the 1980s found their parents, school teachers, and librarians who were kidnapped that year to make the characters of these 4 teenagers more three-dimensional through interviews and records.
The story of the film is very simple. Four teenagers stole books from the library and ended up in jail. They want to prove their special existence too much, and their own value is not fully filled, so they choose to commit crimes to evaporate their excess energy, just like Langton who ran away with big money in "Trainspotting", unexpectedly Dead babies and dead friends. If the youth hormone is burned in the wrong place, it will become a sacrifice.
Spencer (a genius with a talent for painting)
The actor of Spencer is the Independent Spirit Award "Death of the Sacred Deer" Best Supporting Actor. Last year, he also filmed "Dunkirk". He is an art student with a talent for painting. He has a happy family, but he just doesn't like to laugh. He has been living in the abyss just like you, just like his self-portrait, not like a big artist's colorful, but black and white eyes. Spencer felt that he was special, and he wanted to prove his speciality. When he visited a book, he saw the collection "Birds of America". Spencer, who likes to paint, naturally had a good impression of this kind of album, and it was invaluable. In chatting with Warren, the brain seemed to suddenly activate, and a case of book theft occurred.
Warren (the lovable sports student)
Warren's actor is the designated male lead in the "American Horror Series" and is also the Quicksilver in "Marvel Universe". He is very good at this type of role. Warren is independent, his parents divorced without warning, and his father He's a crybaby, Warren knows some underworld people, and he often uses his crown to be ridiculous , like a ray of light shining into the dim world. So Warren planned the first theft scheme with the help of Google, Movies.
Eric (Scholar, dreams of becoming an FBI agent)
Eric's representative works "The Diary of a Wimpy Kid" and "Fear the Walking Dead". Eric is a scholar with a smart mind. Ironically, a person who dreams of becoming an FBI agent has embarked on a crime. According to the real Eric himself: In fact, when Warren approached him and invited him to join the gang, Eric agreed without thinking. The reason is very simple, because he had a big fight with Warren before. This time, I want to take this opportunity to regain the lost friendship.
Chas (naturally business-minded, small entrepreneur)
The actor of Chas has played "Growing Edge" and "Boy Billy". Chas is a muscular man and a smart small entrepreneur. The purpose of joining is mainly for money, and he takes everyone to escape as a driver.
The librarian who was kidnapped said that he had already forgiven them. She said: "They are selfish, unwilling to make solid efforts to adapt their own lives, and unwilling to change their own lives by helping others",
Warren has been blaming himself for hurting the librarian back then. Warren and his party of four have always been kind. It was just because of their restless youth and hormones that they had nowhere to put, and they committed some stupid things. They were not stupid. They are just too trying to prove themselves. Sentenced to seven years in prison.
Fortunately, in the end, the group of four was released from prison and still able to find their own direction. Spencer became an artist, best at painting birds. Warren was re-admitted to college to study filmmaking. Eric became a writer. Chas works as a fitness trainer at a gym. We have all been teenagers, we have all been rebellious, and we have all committed confusion, but it doesn't matter, don't be afraid, everything is still in time, after the confusion is a bright road, we can always find our own direction.
Youth, cruelty, fortunately when we look back, it's an interesting memory
