These three faces are really amazing. For the first time, the boy took the camera to film the dialogue between the father and daughter next door. It feels like a little devil, full of nervousness and an incredible poise. His stable impression disappeared in front of his father, and he turned back to the broken teenager who was sent to the mental hospital.

The girl in the middle is also Jenny, the daughter of the protagonist in the voiceover. Very interesting, his dad said she was a typical girl, full of insecurities and irritable. I think his father may not know his daughter well.
The love between Jenny and the boy above is the most interesting. It's not heavy, but her hand is holding him. I understand what it means to have a heart-to-heart bond.

The girl on the right, probably every girl will meet this kind of person when she grows up. On the surface, she is strong, proud, beautiful and self-respecting, but she will find an ordinary friend to support her to set off her. In fact, her arrogance is an empty shell. In fact, she is still a girl, and she is also a typical girl.

Looking at the couple's relationship, it's really disappointing.
There has been true love, there has been happiness, but it has completely disappeared.
They torture each other every day, have no sex, no communication, and regard each other's existence as hostility.
How terrifying, especially that you are not without love, not without love, you are just lost to the knife of time and life.

I am so envious of that boy, I believe that his inner strength is the strength of a person who has been extremely depressed after starting over. His hatred for his father eventually turned into pity. In that part, when he learned that if his father thought he was Homosexuality will make him smirk when he leaves the house. Facing his father's fist, he just says: You are such a poor old man. I kissed my mother's face and said I was leaving the house. Mom, you have to take care of my father. I really hope you didn't suffer. The short lines, the right situation, and the power of that emotion made me cry.
In the past, when I read novels, boys would run over and ask girls, if I left today, would you follow me.
This is probably an elopement. In this movie, the boy is also Jenny, and Jenny said yes. I also believe she will, how lucky they were to find each other, the boy said the same, and I believed the same. real.

So when I look at other things, such as midlife crisis, extramarital affairs, lust for girls, I watch it as a comedy, and the way I handle it is indeed comedy, but when I look at the emotions of these two children, I Seriously, I know that this film is full of contradictions, serious absurdity, but it explores such serious issues, and it is so accurate.
