In today's plastic friendship, I think everyone will miss their childhood playmates.
At that time, there was no interest relationship, no drama, and no secret tearing.
There's nothing a lollipop can't solve, and if there is, it's two.
Childhood, pure and beautiful.
There are many stories in the movie that show childhood.
For example, "The Kite Chaser", "Kikujiro's Summer", "Seongnam Old Things".
▲"The Kite Chaser"
These films either show the innocence of childhood or express the nostalgia of childhood.
What I want to talk about today is a beautiful children's film with cruelty -
Walk with me
At the beginning of the film, when the male protagonist Ah Shou saw the news that Ah Bad, who was already a lawyer, was killed, he recalled the distant summer vacation when he first saw the corpse.
At that time, Ah Thin was really thin.
His greatest pleasure every day was hanging out with his henchmen, playing cards and smoking.
The boss of the death party group is the prodigal son Ah Bad, who is debauched and is a thorn in the side of all teachers.
Unlike the four-eyed boy in the previous death party group, Ah Thin's dead party glasses are not cowardly and afraid at all, but he is a stunned young man, because he has a grumpy father.
Of course, in every group, there will be a slow-moving chubby.
In the eyes of others, the bad guys are standard bad boys.
But in Ah Slender's eyes, this group of dead parties is his incomparably important people, even more important than his family.
Because, Ah Thin's parents only cared about his dead brother.
This summer, the four of them decided to accomplish something big.
It was to go out into the wilderness several kilometers away and look for the body of a boy.
Their purpose is simple, but also very secondary.
It is necessary to find the body of the missing boy before the police find it.
Then get in the newspaper, get on the news, be a hero.
This challenge is not small.
They don't just have to race against the police.
At the same time, it is also necessary to take away the body before the social youth Ab.
Just in case, Ah Bad stole a gun from his father's drawer.
Thinking about it this way, their childhood is much more interesting than ours.
After all, we've only played with plastic guns.
So, the four of them went along.
Pack your bags and embark on a corpse hunting adventure.
Some with curiosity, some with courage, some with madness.
Only Xiao Chu thought about the longer term, and he brought a comb.
Because he wants to be handsome on TV.
Glasses are typical of crazy on the road.
He not only wants to find the corpse as a hero, but also to compare speed with the train.
Fortunately, the calm-headed Ah Bad saved the glasses in time.
Otherwise, the corpse would not have to be found, and the glasses would be freshly baked.
The legendary garbage dump is accompanied by a strange man and a vicious dog.
The four did not believe in evil and decided to turn over the iron fence to see.
The henchmen gathered around, eating bread and drinking Coke.
Talk about a topic that all boys talk about.
For them, this dumpster is like a paradise without limits.
Of course, there are dangers.
Especially when the vicious dog that only "attacks the egg" comes out.
Along the way, everyone talked and laughed.
But Ah Bad always talked to Ah Slender about some more sad topics.
For example, what to do if you go to junior high school.
According to Ah Bad's advice, Ah Thin should make more new friends.
A thin unwilling.
Ah Bad scolded Ah Thin as an asshole.
Ah Thin didn't understand, why is it an asshole with friends?
Ah Bad said, "You let your friends drag you down, you're an asshole." ”
Don't say anything, I smell a smell of brotherhood ♂.
This kind of philosophical ♂ dialogue is not something that every child can say.
Look at the conversation between another pair of friends, and you will know why Ah Bad can be the boss.
Just as every bad boy has his own sadness.
Ah Bad also has his own story.
His father was a thief, and the whole town had a different eye on him.
In fact, A bad is not really a bad child.
He stole the class fee, but returned it to the teacher due to guilt.
But the teacher bought a dress with money, and he was suspended from class, and no one believed his words.
Ah Bad wants to escape from his current home and start over in a place where no one is.
For Ah Shou, the only brother who cared about him died, and he wanted to escape from the family without love at any time.
The so-called sympathy for each other is more or less the case, two wounded souls, it is easier to understand what is lost, and therefore, to cherish each other more.
It's only natural that they can be friends.
Little by little, it's a long way.
The four men crossed the bridge and dodged the train.
Waded through the pond and encountered leeches.
Eventually, the four found the body.
The man who died was a boy as old as they were.
As children, the three of them witnessed for the first time what death was.
And for Ah Thin, who has lost his loved ones, this is undoubtedly a deep touch of the soul.
At this time, the young Ab of the society also rushed to the scene.
He threatened four people that either he would take the bodies with him or four more dead children.
At the critical moment, Ah Thin, who has always been bullied, stepped forward.
It's like guarding your friends.
He picked up the gun and desperately left the body behind.
Unexpectedly, at the suggestion of Ah Shou, they did not take the body to ask for credit, but anonymously reported to the police
This ridiculous adventure became a covert operation that belonged only to the four of them.
After the summer vacation, everyone embarked on their own path.
As the movie says:
"Some friends pass away in a flash, like pedestrians on the road."
When Xiao Fat grew up, he married and had children, and made a living by driving an excavator.
The glasses were still stunned, and later he did not know where to go, and it is said that he was once in prison.
Ah Bad left the town and was admitted to college as a lawyer. During a restaurant fight, he was stabbed in the throat and died on the spot.
Growing up, Ah Zan became a writer.
He wrote in his novel.
"Although I haven't seen him in almost a decade, I will always miss him and I have never made a friend like I did when I was 12 years old."
The movie "Walk with Me" is adapted from the novel "Corpse".
Its original author is the famous thriller master in the United States, Stephen King.
This semi-autobiographical novel changes the thriller suspense route that he is good at.
The original shows fifty years of American life from the perspective of four children, while also full of Stephen King's memories of his childhood.
He writes on the first page of the book.
"Autumn That's No Longer Innocent – Dedicated to George McLeod"
It can be said that when the four male protagonists in the movie find the body, their childhood has quietly disappeared with the summer.
This grown-up sadness pervades the entire movie.
Inadvertently, the audience can be brought into the situation.
We may be like the protagonists, with unforgettable childhood playmates, spending time together, doing crazy or stupid things together.
But as time went by, everyone went their separate ways and there was no contact.
They eventually disappeared completely from our lives, and only a few memories remained.
This kind of drama is like the real feeling of life, which is the most touching thing about this film.
It is worth mentioning that the actor who plays a bad actor in the film, Rivan Phoenix.
He became a hit with his wonderful performance in the movie.
Does the name sound familiar?
That's right, the male protagonist of "Her", Jacqueline Phoenix, is his brother!
From the age of 15, Ruifan began a star-studded acting career.
At the age of 21, he won the Venetian Film Emperor with the movie "Unruly Sky".
Handsome face, melancholy temperament, some say the whole ninety years will be his.
However, two years later, he died of a drug overdose at the age of 23.
Everyone's choice will have a different fate.
This is true of A Bad in the movie, and it is also true of him as an actor.
Although countless people are sorry and lament for it.
But the only thing we can do but miss it is to continue to carry the weight forward.
