This is an anti-drug movie, love and drugs. I don't want to talk nonsense about the whole movie here, I just want to mention what the director deals with the most and most: the love of Harry and Marion.
Handsome Harry is a do nothing addict and Marion is a problem girl. The story begins with summer, which has a moral, it means the most prosperous stage in life: in the
first scene, the two people went upstairs to break the alarm to the rooftop, facing the sight of the sight, they proposed to the audience with the question and answer of the two Answered the question again.
Harry: "I don't know why you're so hard on them, they give you everything, both to feed you and to live in."
Marion: "That's fine, but money was never really what I wanted from them. , they can't give me anything but money."
Harry: "Then what should I do?"
Marion: "I don't know."
Then Harry mentioned Marion's fashion design talent, and also proposed the idea of opening a store with her. Facing the breezy seascape, the picture is full of hope. For the first time, the love between the two was young and alive, and it also carried a beautiful longing, no different from ordinary young people.
The second scene, the screen is split, the two are caressing, talking, naked, black hair, clean. The split screen makes people's eyes shine. With the words of love and soft background music, there is a strict boundary with the melancholy and restless atmosphere of the main body of the film. The love of the two is perfectly explained.
Harry: "You know what?" (pauses, slightly appetizing) "I always think you're the most beautiful girl I've ever met."
She touched his shoulder, he touched her back. "When I first saw you."
She touched his ear, "That's nice, Harry." He wiped her lips, revealing her white teeth.
Marion: "I feel very happy." She touches his belly button and he strokes her palm.
Marion: "Someone told me once, but it didn't make any sense." He touched her earlobe, then lightly scratched her left temple.
Harry: "Why? Do you think they're making fun of you?" She touched his hair first, then wiped his lips, revealing her white teeth.
Marion: "It's not like that, I mean...don't know, or I don't care how, just say it from their mouths," he stroked her back, she stroked his. "It just doesn't make sense, you know?" He touches her inner thigh,
Marion: "When you say it, I hear it, really hear it." She strokes his palm and he touches her hair.
Harry: "Girls like you can bring me good luck." Marion: "Do you think so?"
I think this section can resonate with people who love it. The director uses such a light and novel style The way to express the love of two young people, let you jump out of sight and hearing to open your heart.
funny shot
About 30 minutes into the film, Harry and his fellow black Tyrone split and resell drugs, as well as Marion's fashion creation. Electronic music background: trade, put money into pocket, take out goods, trade, put money into pocket... Just like the description of the drug use process in the film, whether it is marijuana or heroin, whether it is smoking or injection, the whole process uses several shots Take one. Does the process matter at this point? When dealing with drugs, it matters how much money you end up getting; when taking drugs, it matters when you end up satisfying your desires—the process is cut as fast as a movie deal, even if it has a natural rhythm. And Marion's creation also looks like an integration of fragments. Like the former, the messy process is pieced together, and the result is very different. The movie goes on, packing, picking up, trading, pocketing... with the accompanying narration "Naturally" (naturally). Finally, there is a photo of Harry and Marion, behind the fashion store they are interested in.
Before the third act, there is a quick close-up of the injection, after Harry and Marion are injected together. The two are in a 69 state, only the heads are close, the camera shot spirally upwards, and the music returns to the warm part, but at this moment, the yellow light in the background and the dazed eyes of the two make the picture look cold.
Marion: "I love you Harry, you make me feel like a person, you make me feel beautiful."
Harry: "You are beautiful." At this point, the camera rises to see the design drawings and the narration surrounding the two. Pieces of clothing in a perfect circle.
Harry (affectionately and intoxicated): "You're the most beautiful girl in the world, my dream girl."
Love mixed with drugs is sad, but it can't be avoided, love is like drug addiction Make people unable to extricate themselves.
(Due to time problems, some important scenes are skipped in the middle...)
In the fourth act, the time has come to winter, and I thought of a family motto in A Song of Ice and Fire: winter is coming. It warns the world that cold winters will always come. And the movie has come to an end. Harry's arm and Tyrone's infection had worsened when they went to Florida to buy drugs, and they were caught in the hospital - he couldn't seem to buy the drugs back for Marion. And Marion has also fallen into an endless cycle of sex, money, and drugs (at that time, the leaders who could buy goods in the market only valued sex instead of money...), she had sacrificed for them before, and this time it seems that she is starting to become It's getting more and more natural. Just as Marion put on beautiful makeup in front of the mirror and was about to go to the night's sex party, the phone and music changed the picture at the same time...
"Hello?"
"Marion?"
"Harry?"
"Marion, I've always missed you so much. , are you okay?"
(Marion fights back tears) "When are you going home?"
"Soon."
"When? (When)"
"Soon. Will you hold on?"
"Harry? Can you come back today?"
"Yeah." Harry then started to cry, he knew it was impossible, "I'll go back, I'll go back today." Marion's tears fell straight down, "You just wait for me, Okay?"
Marion sighed, "OK, Harry."
"Marion?"
"Yeah?"
"I'm really sorry."
"I understand." She wiped the tears away with a tissue so it didn't affect her makeup, and the call ended while Harry hugged his head and cried.
This is a sad scene. In this film, the director did not cut off the love between the two coldly, but in the face of reality, people always behaved so naturally and cruelly. Sometimes even a lie can't cover up the life that's about to happen. The director used a helpless attitude to interpret the human nature of the drug addict he showed: it is not that there is no love, but the cruel reality turns love into a dream that he does not want to wake up from. In addition, the director did not cut off the love between Harry and his mother Sara, and also used a dream scene to do the ending, and this ending is real: "I love you, Harry." "I love you too, Mom."
Cherish true love and stay away from drugs. thanks for watching!
PS: I later bought the author's original book, which is too expensive! This era can not even afford books, sad!
