      A half-hearted literary film made by the director.

      Saturday, November 30, 2019. Viewing is not recommended. ---The foreword of the filming does not match the afterword, and many places are unclear--especially some characters' personality changes are blunt, which makes people confused, and even makes people think how to play house with children, if they turn their faces, they turn their faces. In summary, the reason for the lack of movies is that the director is happy with himself in his own release, has no scruples about the audience, and...

      Ethics films after 2016 can also be shot like this

      First of all, let’s talk about something that has nothing to do with the characters. First of all, the picture is very beautiful. It can be seen that the photography has a strong oil painting skills. The lighting can be so close to the natural light of the figure painting. Into a beautiful mysterious atmosphere of the last century.

      Secondly, the control of the film rhythm is also worth mentioning. As we all know, in recent years, various films, especially TV series, have accelerated...

      [Film Review] Lady Macbeth (2016) 7.9/10

      Debut film from UK director William Oldroyd, LADY MACBETH is a perfervid reinterpretation of Nikolai Leskov's literature warhorse, which is transposed to a rural England in the 19th century.

      The young woman in question is Katherine (Pugh), on her wedding night, her mixed conjugal feeling of excitation, trepidation and expectation starkly plunges into blank disappointment by the standoffish...

      "Lady Macbeth" is adapted from the Russian novel of the same name (haven't read the original), the picture is as quiet as an oil painting, and the film plot is as repressed as a frigid style; although it is a Russian classic, adapted into a BBC film, the geographical characters have changed, and the girl's family background He was forced to go to the manor's house to be his wife, but on the wedding night, the old and irritable old man just ordered the bride to take off her nightgown and stand...

      A slow-motion story told in slow motion, but it's pretty nice. The poor-born heroine became a lonely woman in a rich man's mansion because of her beauty. The loneliness made her not bound by morality. Unfortunately, after a tossing, she was only accompanied by endless...

    The sound of the film is extremely simple to adopt and use, with no modification, no atmosphere design, limited scenes, simple modeling, simple lens language, and concise and powerful narrative lines   . (Nanfang Daily Review)
    The film is a revenge drama from a female perspective. From depression to explosion, from pity to disgust, there is only a thin line between kindness and cruelty. The film is full of classical depression from the...
