I remember when I was a child, home after school, I carry a heavy bag every time to pass a road, asphalt road pedestrians and vehicles are slow, as if just waking up after a long sleep, surrounded by a quiet peaceful atmosphere. The end of this road is the Palace of Culture, which is a public **** place for citizens to engage in cultural and recreational activities.

There are many artistic and literary youths stationed there all year round, just like the big mothers who dance in the park today, quite powerful, there are flute players, erhu players, painters and brush writers in the Palace of Culture, which is lively all year round, and if you are lucky, you can catch up to watch an open-air movie as well.

Since the days of elementary school students are so shameful, the first thing I do every time I get out of school is not to go home first, but to go to the Palace of Culture for a while.

I met a girl named Xiaoyu there, her fleshy face with a pair of big eyes like purple grape beads, she and I are the same age, the situation is similar to me, think home is no fun, we two did not have a lot of success in the schoolchildren, and since then about to come to the Palace of Culture to watch a movie together.

Thankfully, the two of us are not bad luck, bring their own small stools, every time you can find a good location to sit down, for open-air viewing of the movie, the location of the movie is crucial, usually we will go to occupy the first row, so that it will not be tall people blocking the line of sight, the experience of the movie is also very good.

A little bit of time passed, I went to middle school, to see the movie thing, was I delayed for a long time, Yu went to another middle school, we rely on letters to contact each other; I rode a bicycle, home from school through the door of the Palace of Culture, to see from the inside out of the a few while smoking while cursing the punks.

The Palace of Culture is no longer the territory occupied by the former literati, and now it is a gladiatorial arena for the gangsters to fight for the position of the boss, and a man called Dragon later became the head of that area, and opened a dance hall in the Palace of Culture and an open-air karaoke, which sells DVDs, which are placed in a plastic box next to the stereo, and are mostly Stephen Chow's movies, except for the ones directed by Wong Jing, but the pirated versions are mostly pirated.

These are the most popular movies in the world.

During that time, every night, I was sleeping on the sound of music drifting from afar.

Often people singing beyond the "glory days", running sound run very strong, comparable to the sound of killing pigs, presumably because the singing is really too difficult to listen to, even the Dragon can not listen to, so it was changed to play the acoustic sound, and so, in the future, many of my nights are in the song "glory days" in the cycle of a deep sleep ... ... ...

Time flies, the university also graduated, Yu went abroad to study for further study, we sometimes FaceTime on the phone, each other push each other recently like the movie.

Years later, I finally realized, As long as there is a movie in my life, I will not feel discouraged. I love watching movies, and it's such a selfish thing to do.

Then I moved one year, to a place very close to the cinema, there is a shopping mall downstairs, the mall has a movie theater on the fifth floor, I will be wandering around after work to check what new movies are on the line, and I spend more than a thousand dollars a month on watching movies.

On weekends, I'll watch the early movies, just because there are few people at that time of day, and the empty theaters will give me the illusion that I'm in a packaged movie, which is a wonderful feeling, and reminds me of my childhood when I was a kid watching open-air movies in the Palace of Culture with Xiaoyu.

People in the world of the movie is pure, will be temporarily abstracted from the real world, I see Wong Kar-wai director of the "Flowery Years", Maggie Cheung and Tony Leung, even if they do not speak, the two people sitting high and cold, but also can feel a thousand words.

That kind of feeling is warm, a good movie will have temperature, you will be taken by the characters inside the movie, the characters, the story, the acting skills of the actors, the director's ability to tell the story, you can intuitively feel, including the emotions conveyed in the movie, the people inside laugh, you will follow the laugh, the people inside cry, you will follow the cry.

Think of it this way, the audience is the best actor.

In fact, life is just a play, you interpret your own life from beginning to end, is the movie; just we can not be too deep into the drama, but also remember to out of the drama.

Once those who moved you a movie plot, but just happened to play your own; the reality can not be unrestrained, the movie can be, the reality can not be fabricated, the movie can be, the reality can not be realized, the movie can also.

Years past, only to know, those stories played in the movie theater, but is a multitude of us.
