      A deceitful flower, a soul-eating powder

      If there is a kind of pollen, you can feel happy when you smoke it, lose yourself like everyone who has smoked it, and no soul dies as if nothing will change. At the same time, it becomes your mission to take care of that flower, and you are even willing to do it for that flower. Go kill (murder Bella); if you don't smoke, continue to struggle for happiness in the suffering of the world, but you are different from anyone else, you have your own personality and mission. do you suck?

      Weirdest movie ever seen

      First of all, the most contradictory thing to me is the flower LittlenJoe. At the end of the movie I can't tell if it's good or bad.

      Good: The inhalation of pollen enables people to present their true self, and is no longer bound by various external factors. In a sense, they have real happiness in their hearts.

      Bad: In the eyes of others, these people are infected with pollen, because they have completely changed their personalities, and their speech and behavior are different...

      About the soundtrack

      Regarding the Japanese soundtrack in "Little Joe", there are some critical voices. I think of it mentioned in the "History of Chinese Martial Arts Movies" I watched before. One of Zhang Che’s important contributions was the introduction of Western music into martial arts movies. At that time, everyone thought I think that the soundtrack of this type of film must be traditional folk music. As a result, when the situation is tense, "Ambush on Ten Sides" is often used. When there is more, it...

      I came to see it

      To tell the truth, it’s not Benmiao I can’t watch this movie.....I’m used to brushing all the movies I starred in. I still can’t express my love and admiration for Benmiao’s acting skills in words. Acting is true. It's too bad, Xiaoben is not acting, he is! Ariel, Richard II, Brutus, Tom, Ben, Norman, Freddy... In which movie he is, he is the person in the movie! The scene of knocking down Alice with a punch is turned over with laughter... Who can beat me, my Ben? Nearly 40 years old, you...

      Very Lanthimos, as many have said (Chris played the nosebleed man in The Lobster). I kind of like the "If there's a virus that can make people happy without any (seemingly) side effects, should we welcome it?" The discussion, which comes from an Austrian film, is even more...

      2020/5/6 (Wed) 16:30 Kaohsiung Cinema, the soundtrack is very weird! Many people are drunk Bella, Alice wakes up and Bella is seriously injured and hospitalized, Alice is also drunk! If alice wants to kill the flower, she should go in late at night and destroy it like joe!

      The characters and the audience maintain the same perception and move around in judgment. The setting of each character and their relationship with each other are very subtle, and under the appearance of ordinary people, they become the key motivation for the audience to realize their judgment, and at the same time act on the subconscious of the heroine. The biggest problem comes from the deviation of the front and back paragraphs. The first half of the loose and life flow makes clear the...

    "Little Joe" is an allegorical soft science fiction film by Austrian female director Jessica Hausner, which analyzes the alienation of human feelings in contemporary society, and presents a bizarre postmodern picture with bold audiovisual language. Picture.
    The text of the film was born from a high concept, in order to match the coldness brought by high technology. As the director's first foreign language film shot and produced in the...
