Purple letterhead and black youth

I suffocate
And promise me you won't resuscitate
And if I change my mind it's far too late
I'm wasting my days as I've wasted my nights and I've wasted my youth
You're waiting for something you've waited in vain because there's nothing for you
—Crystal Castles, Suffocation is

probably for a little creativity and artistry. The director has played me many times. In fact, this is an N angle love movie that will appear empty and tasteless when written as a summary of the story. It was filmed by Lao Luo with long inner monologues, flashback shots, and montages. The cryptic art makes people feel distressed. Even the last credits are put upside down.

Sean, who has a good skin and a strong personality, is actually more like an arrogant world-weary. While he looks down on his companions, he doesn't have much pursuit other than selling cocaine to survive. The purple love letter accidentally found in the mailbox made him feel the meaning of existence, but the beautiful daydream was ultimately destroyed by desire. As an American literary and artistic youth, his hobby is to play and sing songs written by himself, even though this is only part of the foreplay between him and a girl at a party in the film.

Gay who fell in love with Naoto in all literary works will not have good results, and so does Paul. When he muttered in his heart, "I love you Sean Batman", Sean was thinking, "If you can't make your beloved woman orgasm, why not try your own brother?" When he was in a hotel in the city, he remembered to Sean. When calling, Sean was masturbating with the smell of purple love letters. He knew that Sean didn't love him, but he was one of the deepest crushes in the movie.

At first you saw smoking a cigarette, her eyes were gloomy, and she gave Lauren to a little jerk. Do you think that she is a weak woman with a simple mind and a clean body but not knowing how to resist? She once liked the teacher secretly, and ignored her roommate’s warning and expected to start a real relationship with Sean, but she can tolerate Victor all over Europe as long as she remembers her, but she can’t tolerate Sean and her roommate being caught and raped in bed. After all, I still don’t love enough.

The end of the story is that at the end of the world party, everyone has done everything that should be done. Lauren and Sean meet in the snow, and everything about the love letter is revealed. No one knows the one he loves, and no one's love has been rewarded. Lauren said to Paul, "lots of people like him. lots of people like us", the subtext is, it's a pity that those who love us are not what we love. Sean disappears into the camera on a motorcycle. Does everything about youth return to the beginning or stop there?

Youth will always end without chaos. They have abandoned their youth in desire, confusion, and self-destruction. They either become old drug dealers who never leave the house, or they get married and have children like the roommate of Lauren who used to mess with a football team. As Sean said, let go of the past, and forward the future. At that time, the memory of youth will gradually fade, just a black episode in the life party.

For me, I have never experienced a young man from the celestial dynasty who can only wait and see. I inevitably think of Skins when watching this film. In the youth of Tony and Sean full of hormones and renal hormones, passion and despair, noise and loneliness, what is missing? Maybe it was the innocence that was never really understood in the torn to pieces of violet pornography.

The Rules of Attraction quotes

  • Paul Denton: I watched him with growing intensity as he refilled the pipe in the dark and smokey din of the room. He delicately fingered what looked like dried moss to me, and it struck me then that I liked Sean because he looked, well, slutty. A boy who'd been around. A boy who couldn't remember if he was Catholic or not.

  • Rupert: Get it straight, fuckhead: I need you like I need a fucking asshole on my elbow.

    [puts elbow in Sean's face]

    Rupert: Right here. An asshole. That's how much I need you.
