In the movie "Room", he poured his enthusiasm for the film, whether it is the control of the story, the processing of the images, or the expansion of practical significance, all reached a certain height.

With this kind of contradictory expression, it intuitively and deeply reflects the sad description of reality. . It can be said that Leonard Abrahamson's mature image style and expression ability have enriched the expression of the real and imaginary horizons of the "existence" space, and further built the artistic bridge between film and reality Journal of Jilin University of the Arts evaluation).
