<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > serial article (109) Architecture in a small town - Memories of the Golden Years</h1>
The town of childhood was bustling and bustling, commercial by day and entertained by night;
The movie theater is the landmark of the childhood town, and it is also the place where the townspeople gather at night, especially the children of the town; no matter what the movie is, there will be a large group of children around the entrance at night, if they encounter acquaintances, they will plead to bring it in; if they can't mix in, they can only find shortcuts to enter, anyway, they will try to do everything they can to see, even if the movie has been watched many times, it doesn't matter, the requirement is the atmosphere in the movie theater;
When I was a child, there were two theaters, one was a daily movie theater; the other was, we called it a "movie theater", and occasionally there would be "Peking Opera performances" and "drama performances", but more often it was a conference hall; for our children, the movie theater was our "favorite place", every night when we did not report to the cinema door, we always felt that something was lacking, of course, more often than not to watch a movie, but to "get together";
When I was a child, unless it was a New Year's holiday, it was difficult to have pocket money at other times, so buying tickets to watch movies was almost an impossible thing; children in small towns would find multiple ways to enter the cinema, both by water and land, of course, they all had to go through dangers and obstacles, and also had to bear the risk of being arrested;
Under normal circumstances, the waterway will only be carried out in the summer, and there is a relatively large pond at the back door of the cinema; as a child, we can follow the shallow water area of the pond, around the cinema courtyard wall to enter the cinema compound, and then mix into the cinema from the shadows of the courtyard; there are many overland roads, but you need to climb over the wall to enter, and the wall will set up organs everywhere, such as erecting glass blocks on the wall, etc., but these can't stop our pace of progress; last year, there was a party with friends who also settled in other places. When we got together, we also talked about the time when we climbed over the wall to watch movies, and that kind of situation and happiness may only be understood and appreciated by our generation;
Cinema from the earliest screening of black and white movies, but also our friends more love to watch, such as "Little Soldier Zhang Ga", "Tunnel War", etc., every time the spies come out, the children in the cinema will shout loudly "secret agents" to remind the good people in the play; when watching movies as a child, the most loved to ask, or the most loved to say, is "which is a good person, which is a bad person", in the heart of childhood, there is only a distinction between good and bad people; and then gradually began to screen color movies, and a movie that was particularly impressive in childhood was "Yellow River Hero". This movie made me understand a truth when I was a child, bad people will definitely have retribution, and good people will definitely take revenge;
There is also a movie is "Kangxi Big Trouble Wutai Mountain", because when we were children, we recognized the word and recognized half of it, did not know the word "Xi", and after the movie poster was posted, we began to shout all over the street, "Today's movie is "Kang Zhao Makes a Big Fuss about Wutai Mountain"! ”
Later, gradually, there began to have Hong Kong and Taiwan movies, remember the first Hong Kong and Taiwan martial arts movie seen in the town is "New Dragon Gate Inn", the content of the movie is honest, the memory is not clear, but the desolation of the northwest in the movie, and the walking hero, the memory is still fresh, at that time always fantasized that he was also a knife walking in the wilderness; at that time, he often pinned a branch to the waistband of his pants, always playing himself as a chivalrous guest, and needed to "do chivalry and righteousness" everywhere;
Slowly, we all began to grow up, and the cinema gradually moved away from us; the golden years remained only in memory;
