The film is not long, the rhythm and music are very good, the plot is clear, each protagonist is a microcosm, and the ending is open. What attracts me most about the film is the way it superimposes the personal and the historical, which is very realistic. One side is a confused and depraved young man, the other side is the era setting at the turn of the century; one side is the so-called shite Scotsman, and the other side is a Capitalism is good. Confusion, numbness and indulgence can be used as labels of adolescence, but can they be used as labels of modernity? Times are changing too fast. Drugs, violence, sex, and relief money in movies are just another form of existence in many people's lives: mobile phones, entertainment that is accessible on some networks, Versailles-like literature, and old age. Is it not a fall to fall in a gentle way? Movies cannot answer the answers of the times. Will you be the one who leaves in the middle of the night?
