    Character Evaluation

    In the movie "Never Let Me Go", Mark Romanek takes a different approach, adopts a female/mortal narrative strategy, deconstructs the male characteristics in mainstream science fiction movies, breaks the convention of replaying Oedipus's trajectory from a male perspective, and presents a softness , Sentimental, and undisciplined femininity, to maximize the "conspiracy" relationship with the audience, thereby winning their emotional identification with non-human beings and reflection on their own behavior   . Moreover, a large number of metaphors that compare the montages of the two images are used to create a psychological conflict for the audience. The purpose is to make it easy for the audience to feel and understand the idea that the director Mark Romanek wants to express through the film .

      A Lennon Terrier, a Sex Pistol Terrier

      It is said that the second season of the vinyl era was cut by HBO. I don't know if it is true or not, which is a pity.
      I also hope that this show can be like Mad Men, and do a small ten-year span.
      After all, there are Lou Reed, Ramones, New York Dolls, Andy Warhol, John Lennon and others I...

      I'm more concerned with how he pulls his head out of his ass than the big-scale plot




      Just because of the 100+ "FUCK" in each episode, I decided to watch this show too, it's an epic of American rock and roll in the 70s.

      New York in the 1970s was very charming, punk and disco were popular, people were taking drugs and sex endlessly, even the janitor went to the bar to listen to the...

      Until the first thirty-eight minutes of the last episode, it was so deadly. Very unbearable forever young and always tearful, you age faster than anyone else, you are too sensitive, you are too honest, you are occasionally clever, occasionally lucky, but you can always make the worst choice, show The wrong love, the wrong bed and the wrong treasure screw up everything and everyone. Then you listen to all the ending songs and regret all your choices without any regrets. And then I couldn't find a CD to get this ending.

      There are bright spots in the story. Clack is deceived and it is wonderful, but the whole is very scattered. It feels like I have been on drugs and manic. Originally it was only worth 3 stars, but the rock blues and jazz in it are so good, and the shooting technique is like Zan Zan Zan, plus one more star.
