Lily Zhou. Everything about Lily Zhou. The Tale of Youth.
I watched it three times over and over again.
Still a brand new favorite.
Every detail is with me The
dark environment. Shaking shots. The monotonous colors with lots of blanks. The disturbing music of Takeshi Kobayashi. The fast-changing note.
And hysterical them.
And hysterical me.
I can understand all your seemingly weird behavior.
Because of it. Like that singer named Keiko Suzuki.
Because of it. Like Shugo Shino who plays Hoshino Shusuke.
And that A girl with full bangs. Flying a kite. Finally fell down under the tower.
I think. I really keep thinking about youth.
Passion and decadence. Beauty and ugliness. Happy and sad. Cheerful and sad.
Shunji Iwai. The filmmaker. The gap between different youths he interprets terrifies me. He can shoot the white simplicity of
.
Look at Hoshino's rebellious and docile facial contours. Many people are partial to Hasumi.
But I love Hoshino so much.
When he nervously throws money on the boat To the air.
When he hid his face in the hood of his sweater. He smoked a cigarette. He left.
When he held the apple that marked the blue cat. A gentle look at Hasumi
. The pain of blood doesn't seem to go away anymore.
Now listening to the soundtrack of the movie "Amelie". It's wonderful, cheerful and clean.
And Lily Zhou.
I don't think I'll dare to think about that humid afternoon again.
Someone smiled at me. Then stood in a field of rich colors. The
sky changed to the color of your smile.
The tall green grass gave your youth a strong and brilliant mark You said .
You are Lily Zhou.
I said. Thank you. Because you suppressed me and made me believe that the sadness of youth is no longer a bright stream. It
has become a damp swamp.
