Youth is a long tunnel, there will always be someone who will walk with you

A very surprising movie. At first I only heard about it because of the relationship between the protagonists, but I didn't pay attention to it until it went online. I thought it was a simple romance. no. The wallflower boy, he observes everything and understands everything, but he just decorates the surroundings like a wallflower and doesn't participate in it.

Not much to say about the plot. Charlie is simple, with a kind of focus from the inside out, and she devoted herself to tutoring SAT coursework in order to help Shan go to college. For Patrick, stand out and bravely protect your partner.

But this is not a simple memoir of youth, just love, parties, music. Youth is more like the tunnel in the film, it is long and slow, a little restless, there is no lack of depression, I don’t know the purpose, and I can’t see a way out for the time being. But fortunately, there are our favorite people and the most familiar music around us. During this wonderful and blooming time, we can open the roof of the car and say we are ifinite against the night and the wind. In middle school, we gained unprecedented freedom, of course. There is a time difference in the Celestial Dynasty, and it is delayed until the university. In any case, we will eventually come out of all kinds of past and present, both overt and dark, knowing that we can't choose where we come from, but we can choose where we go from there. This is enough.

The male protagonist is very attentive and delicate, and people who seem dull actually have the best philosophy of life. Because of their concentration, they can happily experience all this with laser-like precise observation, and all the happiness and joy are multiplied by a magnification factor because of the dullness of the mind.

I hope everyone is so lucky to have such a cherished friendship, or a stronger love, to carry laughter and tears in the tunnel, share and be moved together.
