      [2008/1/19]

      I probably knew it was a women's movie, so I went to see it. With Ladbrokes, there are still few people in the cinema who

      say that Nicole was never considered beautiful before, and many girls are not photogenic. Of course, I do not deny that some people are not as good-looking as photos, but she is old and plays a mother of a child who can't tell her age. , a neurotic female writer, a woman who doesn't know how to express herself and can't see her feelings

      clearly I did it,...

      Nicole is a backstop again

      I was first attracted by the poster of this movie. Nicole's pink hat is particularly conspicuous in the plain poster, which has the finishing touch. However, the movie is not as warm and beautiful as the poster, but uses a very realistic plot and camera to explore a complex and contradictory family. The film features Jack Black and Jennifer Jason Leigh as the unmarried couple, and I have to reluctantly announce that Nicole Kidman is once again serving as a foil. Of course, the American critics...

      Only then did I realize that the lens in the literary film rarely pushes and pulls, but moves a lot.

      There's really still some sense of homage to the master movies, because it's still unintelligible to me. I didn't understand Eric Rohmer's "Women Who Collected Men," and so did this "Margot at a Wedding."
      The very hand-held shooting technique, using entirely natural light, made some images too dark and blurry to see. Nicole is still a little too beautiful, and the wrinkles on her face add a little realism. The dialogue language of the film is still easy to understand, but everyone is a...

      a little uncomfortable

      I thought it was a lighthearted movie, but I regretted it at the beginning.
      Although I originally wanted to watch a relaxing movie to help sleep,
      but because I was too lazy to change the disc, I insisted on watching it,
      but it did not make me regret it.
      The seemingly monotonous and life-like plot did not make me feel dull.
      On the contrary, I feel that the messy living in the film may be the true portrayal of our hearts.
      Margot thinks that everyone is autistic, and...

      I don't know

      If you want to write, let's be frank and write, or will people say zhuangbility, I don't understand what the director is saying? Margot took his son to her sister's wedding, which was apparently to be held in the hometown where Margot and her sister grew up. Jack Black plays Margot's sister's fiancé, a rambling guy with a not-so-successful career, never mind, he's just a spice for the development of the plot (hopefully the audience can admit that it's also called the plot). . .
      It started...

    Evaluation action

    The film focuses on the excavation of the inner world of the characters instead of the arrangement of the group play, so there is no obvious connection between the various sections, and the plot is not a laid-back flow. Noah Baumbach has extraordinary skills in expressing the contradictions and conflicts between characters. He can keenly capture and express the essence of consciousness in a large amount of dialogue, and delicately...

    Movie quotes

    • Malcolm: I wanna punch that guy in the nose.

      Pauline: You've never hit anyone.

      Malcolm: I have too!

      Pauline: Who?

      Malcolm: Lots of people. You don't know them. They're not around cause I punched them.

      Pauline: [bursts out laughing]

    • Margot: You know, Pauline told me she's very disappointed in you.

      Claude: Why?

      Margot: She thinks you laze about the house. Ingrid is always offering to help clean or cook. She made bracelets for all the guests. Even Malcolm puts up the tent. You just wait until everyone else does it for you.

      Claude: That's not true.

      Margot: It is true. I wish I taught you better manners...

      Claude: I can try to make pop-overs. If I remember how...

      Margot: Don't bother.

      [She looks at him with grave disappointment]

      Claude: Why are you looking at me like that?

      Margot: I just see how much you've changed. Your body language. You used to be rounder and more graceful. You're so stiff now, so blasé.

      Claude: What do you mean?

      Margot: I can't explain it.

      [She sees the tears in his eyes]

      Margot: It's okay, though.

      Claude: Uh-huh.

      [He stands up and starts walking away]

      Margot: You're still handsome!

    • Pauline: I know. We're at that age where we're becoming invisible to men. If a guy wants to fuck us, that's very tempting.

      Margot: What are you saying?

      Pauline: I'm saying, if you get your sense of self from being fuckable and that starts to wane - it's very hard. I almost had an affair too. but you know, you don't have to do it. You can, I don't know, get a manicure or something.
