The emotional penetration of the whole story is very strong and the acting is impressive. At the same time, the strong centripetal force from family and community is also very vivid. At this point, it is definitely an excellent addition to the book Stranger in Homeland. On the premise that I haven't read the original work, I judged intuitively that the adaptation should be relatively successful. For example, the textbook-like opening is particularly amazing: in just ten minutes, it has already...

Not bad American dream story, the plot can move me, but the script is mediocre, the director is even worse, Ron Howard is dragging his feet, isn't it a good filming of "Happy Girl", look at "Women's Fragments" Mundruczó Kornél How to elevate a second-rate soap script to a first-rate anthropological observation. Glenn Close deserves an Oscar. Amy Adams is beautiful, I like her a lot, but she can't be an actress in her life. The recent British and American movies and variety shows occasionally...

3.5 Thinking about who the director is, it's impossible to be as cruel and a little tricky as "August: Osage County". AA didn't nominate actresses, is the academy...

Ron Howard is best at storytelling that's unhurried, but one that keeps the viewer entertained. The three roles of the actors, old, middle and young, are all very good. The echoes of the two timelines and the final closing line are all great. 4.5...

Of course, director Howard, who grew up in Hollywood and was deeply influenced by white leftists, would of course make Song of the Desperate as a trip to the American Dream. All personal tragedies are self-inflicted, but as long as you are willing to learn to make good friends, you can become a badass Terminator, wake up. Aside from this unflattering theme, there is no bright spot from the image level. It's a pity the two grudges, but bad movies can't make good...

It’s not clear how the original work was written. The biggest problem with this film is that I didn’t fully understand how the protagonist crossed the class gap. Most of the time, he stayed at the level of a conventional family ethics drama, and the audience was also well understood by setting up a bunch of circus scenes ( and understanding) the protagonist is not helpful, and even confused and turned to chicken soup inspirational, the influence of the original family, the influence of class...

Movies and memoirs have a different focus. The director deliberately created all kinds of dramatic conflicts and turned the stories told lightly in the book into horses. When I read the memoir three years ago, my biggest emotion was that the author has always called their family a poor person, and their daily dinner is fast food such as McDonald's. At that time, I was shocked. Can the poor still eat McDonald's every day? I can't afford it anyway. Using this single memoir as a survey sample, I...
