Red Road evaluation action
2022-03-22 08:01
The film is so beautifully shot that it feels too short after watching it. At first, the pace of the story seems too slow, and some impatient viewers may not be able to watch it. However, if you can bear your temper, the last 40 minutes will make people feel bright and amazingly beautiful.
The film depicts the image of a woman with a broken heart, and also shows her desperate revenge mentality, which is a unique aspect of "Red Road". The audience doesn't get caught up in the cycle of trying to figure out Jackie's motives, only thinking that there must be a reason for what she's doing.
In this film, Clyde is a very interesting character, and it is impossible to imagine what kind of person he is until the end. Because of this, the film can attract the audience to the last second.
In this icy thriller, Kate Dickie's successful portrayal of the role of Jackie is a major highlight of the film. In the wriggling close-up, Kate perfectly captures Jackie's indescribable loss of a loved one and her intense reckless conviction for revenge. While these elements, like the way the film is shot, seem superfluous, the horrific sex between Jackie and Klein can be called an "extreme beauty"
