Dressed in a student uniform, hunched over, hands in pockets.
This is the weak world of bad boys, skipping classes, robbing money, making teacher dolls with huge penises,
burning cars, smoking and drinking, adult movies...

The pony disappeared for a few days after being beaten once, Xinzhi
's two voices The bicycle bell could not be answered, so he could only turn around and drive to the empty street alone.
A person's fallen sky loses its dazzling splendor and temptation.

It was still Joe Hisaishi's music, which sounded after a brief separation.
Pony takes Xinzhi to the boxing gym. detail. Long shots of running and bright scenes.
Xinzhi became the dominant character in the unconscious obedience and pursuit.

"We want to have a sense of betrayal to our family and friends." The

silent Japanese boy's face, his eyes full of enthusiasm and disappointment.
A strong sense of loneliness, so Xinzhi stays and the pony walks away.
Money, Marlboro, Lao Tzu and life. which one is more important.
The reunion of the boxer and the big brother became a huge platform for silence and no-shows with each other.
They finally did not become the legendary boxing champion and boss, that is not their world.
They can only be bad boys in the end, indulging in the beauty of depravity, and they are pure and pure.
After a short period of splendor, they returned to the dark valley and went back to their wrong path.
Bad boy's sky is always haze, lightning, thunder, and the same goal.

I remembered a passage about good children and bad children in an article. He said:
Good children have candy, which is waiting for someone to give it, so it is less and more careful when eating.
Bad boys also have candy, and they rob it, so they have more, so they squander it and sprinkle candy wrappers all over the world.
Not depraved, just abandoned. So isolated.
The more indifferent, the more yearning for the huge iceberg, the more exuberant the flame in my heart, unmatched.

In addition to Pony and Shinji, the whole film is also permeated with Yamamoto's life trajectory.
Yamamoto is dead.
Yamamoto lived a regular life, pursued Sachiko, got married, quit his job, worked as a taxi driver...
but Yamamoto died. The good boy dies and the bad boy lives.
The good boys have no future, and the bad boys can still go back to their familiar playground.
The pony said. Their lives are not over. It hasn't started yet.

Tianlangdisu, I feel so lucky.
