America's past is like a big river

A few times, I felt a little unbearable. I was a little scared, but I restrained myself. The American past is more like an epic, telling us the traces of time on a person. It is the vicissitudes of life that make me reluctant to go. Thinking about my own life, several times I would dream of De Niro's white-haired scene at the train station, and I couldn't help but sigh.

A person's history is sometimes more intimate than the history of an era. I saw De Niro's rudeness, innocence, bravery, vulnerability, and confusion and confusion. Over the years, I have also been depressed or confident. Sometimes I really want to write a complete thing, but I don't know how to write it, maybe I'm not old enough. Speaking of Dahe, I thought of another American movie, River, which is about brotherhood and father-son love. I think that kind of warm movie is very suitable for me now, just like I like Zheng Jun.

Another: Once Upon a Time in America is highly recommended, and after watching it repeatedly, I like De Niro more after watching it.

    You must have the patience to watch the movie. It's time, and it's the things lost in time. There is some sadness.
