      cross the room if you've ever been lonely

      cross the room if you've ever been lonely...who hasn't experienced these troubles, bold aesthetic attempts, high noise, hue inaccuracy, lens flare, director's preference for close-ups, and it's 21st century Cassavetes. The uncontrollable plot actually implies many plot trends. One wrong step will lead to another development. This is the scripted life without a script. A performance without a script can come to an abrupt end and pause at any time. It's really cool that all kinds of videos can...

      film review, good time

      Speaking of Robert Pattinson, two lines of information immediately popped into my mind!

      1. The male lead of "Twilight", Kristen Stewart's ex-boyfriend

      Two, looks outstanding, acting is mediocre

      Subjective and one-sided arguments have been haunting and lingering. Until today, the author was fortunate enough to come into...

      Life is too real to be boring and compromising

      Sometimes seeing a life too real can become boring and compromising, in the eyes of others all experiences are full of clutter and dissonance, like the soundtrack to this story, sometimes restless and sometimes psychedelic, but both. Create an attitude.

      The complete life of all people in society cannot be changed from the beginning, but [good times] has become just an inner impulse. Our ordinary life lacks madness, so we do not understand the value of madness and the...

      When the film interprets the main plot, it has been constantly exposing the harsh real social problems from the side - the problem of single-parent domestic violence

      Good times, for the two male protagonists and brothers in the film, it is just a dream pursued by them, but the reality facing them is - "not a good time"... Connie went to jail, and Nick went to a mental hospital. Compulsory psychotherapy - the result of the treatment is that the environment of the mentally handicapped people around them gradually makes their psychology more distorted and mentally handicapped...

      Cold, hateful, lonely New York, a frantic, disorderly, struggling adventure, and ultimately unable to find a peaceful, beautiful, reunion home, as always, the camera is aimed at homeless people, addicts, robbers and In the world of the mentally ill, innocence is so far away, like a thousand shining amusement parks in the dark night, the failure of escape and freedom, falling from high-rise buildings and imprisoning, from here to there, the noise and close-up are all imprisoned...

      A long night of restlessness and collapse. The style of the video and soundtrack is very close to Drive, and behind every frame is a panic. The silly brotherhood that traces back to "Mice and Men" has an occasional tearful urge. Trump's American social irony, everyone is running for their lives without peace. I especially like the close-ups that focus on shaking faces, humans trapped in widescreen and unable to breathe....

      The script is relatively weak, but the story has a Scorsese feel to it. The marginal characters are pushed into a corner, and the stylization is very good. The music in the first half is a bit too much, and the lighting is cool, but not as good as Refn's. If Using more handhelds can better express the psychology of the characters. Pattinson did a good job. I didn't expect that the actor who played the fool's brother was the director, and he did a good...

      A new genre film in the 21st century - drug-addicting crime films. The main elements of this type of film: the camera shakes left and right, the electronic soundtrack is bombarded, and the neon tubes are...

    Behind the scenes gags

    Before the filming, the two directors visited the major prisons, and the actor Robert also visited the Manhattan Detention Center.
    Robert Pattinson did a lot of experiments to make others unable to recognize himself, such as dyeing his beard and painting acne spots on his face. Sure enough, when filming the last scene in the guaranteed housing area in Brooklyn, New York, he was wearing a security uniform and a resident in an elevator....

    Evaluation action

    The movie uses close-up shots of his brother Nick, no music and no quick editing, which is very different from the style of shooting the robber brother in the middle. The resistance and acceptance of the cognitively impaired are linked end to end, and a series of desperate actions by the elder brother alone in the middle. In this way, two seemingly unrelated propositions are cleverly joined together and echoed end to end. The film is...
