    What I feel most afraid of is when I put myself in the role of the heroine and think about it, I also fell into a deep confusion about how I would choose. Those who are emotionally vulnerable are kidnapped by emotions, and those who believe in religion are abandoned by religion. Patriarchy and theocracy in a sick village, destroyed in the name of love. A model of the new wave, the shooting is extremely restored, and the combination of many lens shakes and colors is very...

    I watched "Breaking the Waves" at 5:40 in the morning, and the tears rolled down at the last second, hurting my eyes I want to say again that I will not like Lars von Trier's films anyway I will resent him for letting kindness The person is too weak, and let her bear the hardness that a weak life can't bear, I will resent him for the cruel talent he seems to be born with, and resenting that he has the ability to apply such talent evenly to every picture. I will resent him. without...
