Better Days

jawdropping. i never thought chinese cinema and storywriting was really this ahead of hollywood. the acting of the 2 lead actors was just brilliant. i love how they raise awareness with what they put to the screen. some feelings are just stronger than anything and are stronger than sacrifice. through every second of the film, you could feel that ur ignoring what should be unignorable, that love is and always will be life. (award shows undermining jackson yee again just because his passport is chinese.) the first half of the movie feels not enough realistic (maybe overdone), and the directing&acting just feels off. this is completely overturned in the second half of the movie where the lead actors absolutely kill it. no line feels pointless, as everything said leads to something being done or simply making us knowledgable on the problems of the world (in this particular film; bullying).everything is happening the way its supposed to be happening and each thing hits the audience like its intended. the ending had me giggling and all. a really beautiful story.
