Private memories

Count it roughly. I have watched the movie The Bloody Two Heroes about 20 times from 1991 to the present.
I have this videotape in my home now, and I sometimes watch it amidst boredom, every time it seems to give me a brief peace of mind. Needless to say, the plot is so familiar, even the dialogue can be recited fluently, but it still makes me sit down and watch the flow of the camera. Ten years ago, I watched plots and action scenes. Five or six years ago, I watched using light and lens language. Now, what am I watching? Maybe it's the good time gone, the blurred figure back.
Besides me, there are many people who like this film. Quentin Tarantino's fanatical admiration of Wu Yusen is well known. The heartthrob DiCaprio claimed in an interview a few years ago that his favorite movie is the bloody duo. Last year, in my unpublished interview with Jia Zhangke, he almost talked about the bloody duo with affection, just like in a movie.
"Xiao Zhuang, you are back..."
"Jenny, I am going to take you to the beach. The doctor said that changing the environment is good for your eyes..."
"Okay, I hope to be at the beach and listen to the sound of the waves..."
"I'll pick you up after I'm done..." At
the end of the platform, at dusk in a small inland town, he fell asleep on the sofa, she was holding the child, and the kettle on the stove was spraying steam, and the conversation was vaguely transmitted. Come. Jia Zhangke said that this film gave him infinite fantasy to the young. The French commented on the platform well, and youth is not there at the end.
Every time I read it again, I will think of Guan Da, Liu Dian and other friends. Our friendship has not diminished a little for more than ten years. In this world, only when I am with them, I have experienced relaxed happiness. Although some commentators have talked about the "gay complex" of Wu Yusen's film, we are undoubtedly all fond of women and no one likes men. After the years passed, I understood that the friendship between men can be so strong. Although we did not have the opportunity to pick up guns and bleed each other on the streets, we know that there is rigid support, stubborn thoughts, and paranoia between us. Tolerance without harm.
I watched this film with five women, and most of them have long since lost contact. One of the unforgettable ones is He X. In the late summer of 1991, after that, I left my hometown and finally got no news.
The acquaintance with X was accidental. I take the bus and she is the conductor. I had met her for half a year before I met her formally. She is very beautiful, although she is often covered tightly because of the cold. That day, I took the bus to buy a ticket and took out ten brand-new two-cent banknotes. She smiled and said "Forget it". When I got off the bus, I still put the money on her little table. Later, we met and started chatting. I was 16 years old in my second year of high school. She seems to be four years older than me. We became friends somehow. Although I call her sister, there are no distracting thoughts in my mind, but we used to go on a date to watch movies and go boating, and for more than a year, sometimes it looked like a couple. Watching the bloody duo together was one afternoon, and she was moved to tears at the end.
It is 2003, and 12 years have passed. She should have been married a long time ago and had children. As early as seven or eight years ago, when I returned to my hometown, I asked the conductor of the bus and learned that she had already transferred to another line. I don't know how she is doing, but her beautiful face 12 years ago is still clear. When the lights in the theater dimmed, I turned my head and saw her profile. She probably forgot about me a long time ago, of course, she might have a slight impression.
How many similar encounters are there in a person's life? She is like a comet, just passing by, illuminating a short chapter of my life, and then disappearing without a trace.

    "There is no story between them, no past, just a process of cherishing each other" has finally turned into a love movie.

    In the part before the police role appeared, there was a kind of embarrassment that the male protagonist was too handsome (but this Lifa brother is really handsome). Remove some of the stalks (doves!) that were later used badly and the overuse of stop-motion editing and recall shots, most of them are really classic and good-looking.
