Imagine being a movie
There is no luxurious atmospheric scene layout,
There is no sick moaning of handsome men and beautiful women,
There is no love for you and me,
There is no feast of high society.
Everything returns to simplicity, paying attention to the life at the bottom, and telling the story with a bland narrative. Today Lin Qing will bring you a movie that is dusted by time and underestimated.
