《壁花少年》又名少年自读日记,我最喜欢的电影之一。和查理的日记一样,我在简书写的这些碎碎念,都是孤独的人聊以自慰的渠道。所以对于这个每周一部电影系列的文集,我要以这部电影作为开篇。
Dear Friend,i am writing to you because she said you listen and understand and didn't try to sleep with that person at that party even though you could have.Please don't try to figure out who i am,i don't want you to do that.I just need know that people like you exist.
这部电影是我读大学一年级时候我的好基友“小鬼”推荐给我的。电影里的配乐将我带到一个新的音乐世界。这些音乐陪伴我走过了迷茫的青春。如今好友各奔东西,人生看似分道扬镳,然而我们曾经在此地的年月不会轻易抹去,我们是谁?那寒冷天穹上燃烧的碎冰。
查理很幸运遇见了Sam和Patrick,我很幸运遇到那么多有趣优秀的朋友。时常还能有牵挂的人。
大二那年暑假,我和查理一样,宅在家里,和我说话的人只和妈妈、弟弟。百无聊赖中,看完了壁花少年的原版英文书(密码: adaf),也是我看完的第一本英文书。
关于这部电影的回忆,只剩几个闪回的画面:
电影结束在隧道,通向了新的生活。

You are alive

And you stand up and see the lights on buildings
你站起身来,看着灿烂的灯火

And you are listening to that song on that drive
听着那首歌

最后,把那首tunnel song送给各位少年。David Bowie的《Heroes》。
