In 1989, he was in his early 20s, stunned, with a pointed nose and chin, long eyelashes, and charming. The critics at the time were called "milk pie".
Cameron Crowe's directorial debut, the director who concocted "Vanilla Sky", "Mr. Sweetheart" and "Elizabeth Town" is really delicate in his handling of emotional changes. It may be because of his early experience as a music magazine editor. In his movies, the music is always seamlessly combined with the story. Besides, he really likes to use handsome actors.
This story itself does not have too many ups and downs. It only talks about the love of American high school students. Like all youth love movies, it tells nothing more than love and being loved, the arrogance and rebellion of adolescence. But everything is told in a seemingly scattered way in this movie, even the hysteria is gentle, like a memory in my heart, full of beauty that people can't bear to touch. The protagonist and heroine's love proverbs are scattered like sparks in the movie, so sparkling and moving. And from the movie, we can see its influence on similar movies in the future, even as small as the eyes and movements of the characters. The scene of Lloyd holding up the tape recorder is already classic and can't be more classic. What makes me particularly interesting is that when the male protagonist Lloyd answered why he was able to make an appointment with Diane, he raised his eyebrows and said: "I'm Lloyd Dobler." It was exactly the phrase "I'm" in "Gossip Girl" many years later. An antique version of "Chuck Bass".

Spoilers behind, be careful
From Lloyd's sentence "I want to get hurt!", I began to be frightened by his love with Diane.
Diane is a typical top student, conservative, cautious, and inferior. In fact, everyone likes her, but they dare not express it.
So a boy named Lloyd appeared. He didn't have that much reason in his heart, but knew that I like that girl, that girl named Diane. So when he talked to Diane for the first time, he said to her: "Let's go out!" Happiness actually happened like this. So there was a shallow hug from the street after the first date, he was wearing a long windbreaker and sneakers, and she was wearing a white dress with bare feet.
Boys like Lloyd are transparent, love is love, there is nothing to hide.
He is the "distraction" in the eyes of the elders. After all, how can such a boy not let you distract. At the noisy dance party, even if not together, he would always check up on her; on the street chatting in the morning, he said "watch out for the glass", he kicked the glass away, and then gently pulled her around. He is reckless, he talks about it, his remarks about "trading and buying processed products" and so on at the dinner table are really interesting. After watching so many movies, I suddenly noticed one thing. It turned out that I like a man who "talks about tuberculosis". From Jonathan in "Fate and Destiny" to Lloyd in this movie.
I really liked the scene in the piano store. He was holding the guitar with unconcealed joy on his face. The buddies told him to send flowers and write letters to show respect. He just calmly took out the blue letter and said: "I already did.", the sentence "I will always be there for you, all the love in my heart" is enough. And we only have to look at Lloyd with an intoxicated but lost look like his two buddies, and say the sour "I have never got one (letter) like this. Have you?" "I dream about it." And this scene corresponds exactly to the previous scene. Several buddies discussed the "If you were Diane, would you fall for Lloyd?" scene. Now it seems that the answer need not be said.
For 16 weeks, he just wanted to be with her. Just like what he said to Diane's father, "what I want to do for a living is be with your daughter, I am good at it." The purpose is simple, so the heart is broken. After breaking up, Lloyd drove the car alone, he blinked his eyes vigorously, wiped his tears with his palm, and looked forward casually. The empty eyes were performed by John Cusack at the time. He was calling in the phone booth, the coat was wet on his body, he smiled bitterly and said, "I gave her my heart, she gave me a pen." It hurts. He ran to chat with a group of boys, and the boys said they knew more about women, saying that it was not worth it for a girl. And Lloyd tilted his head and squinted his eyes and popped out "if you know about women, how come you are at a Gas'n Sip on a Saturday night drinking beers with no women anywhere?". What a clever Xiaoqiao Duan, it was obviously a louder slap in the face for a man to say this than a woman to say this, and it slapped the men's faces.
In my opinion, the relationship between Lloyd and Diane has always been like an emotionally out-of-sync love. You will never feel the heart-piercing pain of the other party. When the heroine said "I love you" over and over in the boxing ring, I only felt disgusted, and I also wanted to ask Lloyd the question "Are you here because you need someone?". Lloyd said "Forget it, I don't care." It's not easy.
The sound of "Ding" came to an abrupt end, how about their love? Will they last?
My answer is-"No"
