Film of the year. The deep affection in plainness, the waves of forbearance, and the steady stage adaptation of the stage play, family love has never been so simple, it is more like another version of "The Long Farewell". The plot is not complicated, but the narrative structure is outstanding. There are a large number of indoor opponents, and the whole is done in one go. Drawing on the expression technique of "Dr. Caligari's Cabin", the characters frequently change their identities, and the...

Starting from the main point of view of a father suffering from Alzheimer's disease, the audience experience his entire mental journey, the chaotic timeline, the overlapping characters and time and space, the sense of substitution is very strong, and the protagonist is deeply plunged into the mood of the protagonist. My grandmother suffers from Alzheimer's disease. The last few years are exactly the same. She doesn't remember things, admits the wrong person, often talks about things from her...

Generally speaking, I don't dare to watch movies of this kind. The fear of getting old and the fear of getting old in my family are all things I want to avoid. I just checked the information of Mr. Anthony, and I was surprised to find that, except for his role name in this movie, which is also called Anthony, even his birthday is the same. Anthony is already 84. This makes me feel particularly...

This script is powerful enough to play a new trick on the time chaos caused by Alzheimer’s disease. The high-intensity plot arrangement gives people a roller coaster experience. The performances of the actors also complement each other. It is a pity that the director is weak, but this story is true. It is...

Near the end of the film, watching the silver-haired, trembling Hopkins think for a moment, and when he said to himself, "Anthony, that's a good name," he couldn't tell the inside and outside of the play for a while, and his tears almost broke... Turning around with the vines, it spread to the childhood when I was still watching movies with vcd. He is one of the few names I remember when I first entered the movie world: He is the frightening and convincing Dr. Hannibal in "The Silent Lamb". He...

It's not just acting, but the narrative of confusion of cause and effect and reverse crossover is even more eye-catching. You never know who will appear in the next second... All dialogues, characters can be true or false, and there is no way to escape the truth. The visual, auditory, time, dream, and fantasy symptoms that appear from the male lead's perspective constitute the special narrative carrier of the film. In the past, when we watched movies like this, we would think of grandparents...

There are many movies that tell the story of the elderly with Alzheimer's disease, and they generally adopt the narrative from the perspective of relatives. But the narrative technique of this film is very unique. The director and screenwriter have carefully designed many "obstacles": use jumping and reciprocal editing to blur the concept of time; use apartment-clinic-nursing home similar or similar room structure to disrupt the space experience; use alternately confused actors with role...

The real immersive movie walks through the timeline of Alzheimer's patients, a sophisticated labyrinth woven with daily life. It is an enviable script that is deep and light, chic and...

Anthony: Can I ask you a question?
Laura: Yes.
Anthony: Are you a nun?
Laura: No.
Anthony: Then why are you speaking to me as if I'm retarded?

Anthony: I am worried. It's very worrying. I mean... Losing all my things, everyone's just helping themselves, and... If this goes on much longer, um, I'll be stark naked. And, um, I... I won't be able to tell what time it is.
