Zhou Xiang was an ordinary office worker. His usual hobby was to watch movies.
However, he liked to read reviews before watching movies. He would only watch movies that he felt suited his taste.
After a long day of work, he returned home and turned on his computer to watch the latest movie.
"'Explosive Drummers', Palme d'Or?”
"It's only three million on the first day! 9.7?"
It was obvious that this was a movie with explosive reviews. Such an exaggerated rating was quite rare in the usually cold Douban.
Zhou Xiang clicked on a few film critics that he usually followed, wanting to see their comments on this movie.
After all, it was possible that the movie's reviews were paid by the film's creators.
It was only three million yuan on the first day. If he really wanted to buy fake reviewers to increase the ratings, it would not cost much.
He found the account of the film critic Ah Shui, whom he was most familiar with. This guy rarely took money to praise any movie, so he was relatively reliable.
"Such a long review?"
............
I'm sorry, but it's hard for me to analyze the movie from the lighting, editing, and so on. I've completely forgotten about these things.
But if you ask me what kind of movie can make me cry in the middle of the night? That was undoubtedly 'Exploding Drummers'!
Why was she crying? Because I was envious, because I never had such passionate love. Let alone love, I didn't have any intense hatred, despair, or helplessness.
I like to play basketball and mechanical dance, but I'm not good at basketball and dancing.
However, when someone asks me what I like, I will still tell them," I like to play basketball, I like to dance, and I also like life.”
I especially envy those who have passionate feelings, because I once wanted to be such a person.
..........
In the second year of high school, a girl I liked very much rejected my confession and then turned around and left.
I felt dizzy for a moment, then my nose ached. I thought I might cry, but then there was a sudden thunder outside. It was going to rain.
I thought, why don't I go out and run around the field, go crazy, get drenched, and cry?
I felt very excited. Maybe it was because I was acting dumb, or maybe it was because I was acting cool, but I felt that I would soon have a burning feeling.
Just as I was about to go out, a security guard saw me." Class is about to start. Why are you standing below?!”
Yeah, what am I doing? Are you crazy?
So I went upstairs dejectedly.
My deskmate asked me what I was doing, and I said that I was squatting in the toilet.
...........
I feel that if all the youth movies happened to me, it would be like that heavy rain that day. I shrunk my head, rolled up my pants, put on my hat, and sneezed, but suddenly realized that I had such strong feelings.
No, I don't think so.
Coincidentally, a few days ago, I met the girl I liked very much in high school. I haven't seen her for about eight years?
What did I say?
"Long time no see."
No, then I left.
...........
After I left, I had already thought of turning around to look for her like crazy.
I took the bus home and bought the braised chicken that I was used to eating. I also bought a cup of milk tea with ice cream.
He was bathing, watching movies, and writing reviews. He didn't think about anything.
A few days later, I saw that there was another movie that should be worth writing a review for. I tidied up my notebook and went over as usual.
I was thinking that if this movie doesn't live up to its name, I'll scold him even if I get the Palme d'Or!
..........
As usual, I bought a cup of iced coffee to refresh myself.
I only took a sip of the coffee, and the ice melted. I cried like an idiot.
The girl sitting next to me looked at me strangely. She probably thought I was crazy.
I was the last to leave the cinema and hid in the toilet. I wanted to smoke like crazy.
But no, I've already quit smoking for two years...
I squatted in the toilet and cried. The toilet in the cinema was especially smelly. I didn't want to open my mouth to cry, so I lowered my head. My voice sounded like a strange laugh.
It had nothing to do with the girl. I was thinking, when should I have such a passionate and passionate relationship?
Probably not in this lifetime.
............
I like to play basketball and watch games, but I only watch half of the game before doing something else.
I like street dancing, and I feel that it's very cool, but I can only dance casually for ten minutes at most, and my level has never improved.
I once had a very awesome dream. I wrote it down on a beautiful piece of paper, but I couldn't find it no matter how hard I tried.
That seemed to be it.
Just like the main character in " The Exploding Drummer," I thought about myself. I've never, ever said " f * ck " from the bottom of my heart, no matter how happy or angry I was, for one thing.
...........
Just like when you were young, all kinds of sensational actions only touched you. Others might not understand your passion at that moment, but in the end, you only touched yourself.
I watched a lot of movies, wrote a lot of reviews, and wrote a lot of touching stories, but I basically never cried.
I used my crafty eyes to look for the structure, lighting, and music of the movie, but I found that I didn't have the excitement I had when I first watched the movie.
I'm thankful for the movie 'Exploding Drummers', because I've never cried so freely before.
The above is actually not a film review. Perhaps it is the most amateur film review I have written since I became a film critic.
However, Director Bai Jinhuan, I will remember him!
End！
