This is the beginning of "The Wrist Slasher's Paradise". I was boringly lighting the remote control in a hotel, and the on-demand channel was full of rubbish movies, foreign rubbish and the latest domestic offline rubbish. I even clicked on this one, and the tune at the beginning attracted me. That young man came to the world after death, a world dedicated to suicides. It looked no different from before, but it was actually worse. It was absolutely terrible. Everything is gray, everyone is the expression before death.
Death is impossible, the young man is completely desperate. Become a buddy with a guy you meet randomly (really a "dead" party.) drunk and drunk all day long. Until he learned that his former girlfriend had also committed suicide, he seemed to have a reason, mission, and mission to find her. He and his buddies hit the road. On the way they met the beauty Michael. Michael claims to find the managers here to get a chance of survival. So the trio hit the road. They went through all kinds of things. When the young man had a secret love with Michael, his girlfriend was found. His girlfriend believed in a cult. The cult was eventually banned by the administrators and his girlfriend was taken away. And Michael really found the manager's chance to live, and left without hesitation. The young man was desperate again. Desperate to get into the black hole under the car seat, it happened that the manager also gave him a chance to live. The young man was resurrected. He opened his eyes and was in the hospital with bandages on his hands. On the hospital bed beside him, Michael had just been rescued from an overdose. The two smiled at each other.
You can't figure out what movie this is. Since they are all dead and still active, is that a zombie movie? NO! Since you're on the road with your best friend, it's a road movie? NO! Two guys meet a funny car repairer, comedy? NO! Meet a beauty hitchhiking, a romance? NO! Encountered a supernatural event, a thriller? NO! The black hole under the car seat, a science fiction movie? NO! ……neither. It's a gray movie, decadent, lazy, romantic movie. In fact, the art is very attentive, the props are very particular, and the tonal control of the photography is also very comfortable. The overall appearance is a low hallucination tone with severe insomnia. The final ending makes this film flow with warmth.
There is nothing wrong with warmth. Not to mention the warmth in despair. Toguro finally said to Grandma Huanhai, I'm sorry, for all these years, I have worried you. Life is really hopeless sometimes, you have to learn to "fake it without expecting it, without expecting it", because hope is a prostitute. When you give up hope, maybe it is the most promising time. The saying in the movie is, "A miracle can happen only when you don't care." I immediately thought of Yang Lian's verse, from "Norilang·偈子", and used it as the title of these short comments.
