Regret delayed

Last year, I bought the tickets at Pingyao film festival. But the film was changed to a media venue. At that time, I was very upset, but now I am even more upset. If I had seen the film then, I wouldn't be disappointed now. In fact, the family of civil servant + teacher combination is more miserable, how much pressure does the child have. Although the boy has a little talent, it is useless to waste it. To make matters worse, there is a plot to make another movie. In a word, the movie is very boring and not worth watching.

Brilliant and beautiful

"Striding into the Wind" is a slacker dramedy about an aimless young man struggling to find his place in society. He constantly finds himself bored and at odds - whether its in class at film school, around his girlfriend's swanky work events, or on the road where he doesn't have license. The film begins with Kun throwing a fit at a driving school. He is a rebel without a cause. There are absolutely beautiful moments of cinematography - impressively all done with mundane environments. I recall a shot through the window of his rundown Jeep of a tryst with the actress on a film set that looked beautiful.
