Features: The person who opens this book may love The Purple Rose of Cairo, may love reading Anni, may love listening to Huang Lei and Faye Wong, may have once let their mood linger in the words of Left Shadow, Right Years, or may just be a simple child who has sung, laughed, and cried on the steps of growing up. In this unsatisfactory world, movies are a good place to go. Life is like a cassette tape, and movies are like CDs. Even if the content is the same, movies can surpass life. Because every inch of irrevocable and non-skippable time in life can be skipped or undone in movies. In movies, one can go forward bravely, live, die, love, and hate; in life, one may only be forced to live hastily, miserably, and mediocrely. Movies can be a form of persistence, but life can only be a form of endurance.
