      Weak black comedy - all resistance is history

      The whole film is about creating a sense of humor in a black comedy, but it's nothing more than that. The title may not match the content at all. I was talking nonsense after drinking, and I had eyes that I couldn’t open. I really didn’t know what to write and what to express. I wrote down what I thought. maybe next time. From the plot, scene setting, character dressing, to the background music, they are all trying to make a quick success in rendering a sense of black humor. I may have said...

      The Big Lie: The Road to the God of "Matilda"

      This is a review of the musical "Matilda", but I also watched the movie of the same name, which is also suitable for fans to watch.

      01 response

      During the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, I went to the scene to watch the world-famous musical "Matilda" in person.

      Before watching the drama, I had a doubt in my mind: because the major marketing...

      Appreciation and Criticism of "Matilda"

      The beginning of the film started with a little baby, and laid the foundation for two things, that is, the little girl reads a lot of books, has some extraordinary abilities, and is full of fantasy. The contrast between the young girl's age and knowledge, the contrast between one person and the three in the family, all set the stage for the following contradictions and conflicts. The rhythm of the narration is also very tight, without extra pen and ink.

      The next expansion is...

      Childlike looking at the world

      The director of the movie "Matilda" looked back at the world from the perspective of children with a childlike innocence.

      The angle of view focused on the little girl Matilda.

      "We have a son and a trouble." Matilda is the trouble that parents call.

      My father used deception to do a used car business. My mother thought it was enough for a woman to dress herself beautifully. Parents and brothers both enjoyed watching TV as their greatest...

      Love and support

      A very warm and simple movie, I watched it by chance. (I wanted to watch the Doomsday Flower, but it was broadcast on the video website hahahaha, I don’t know why).

      A few fragments that are very impressive:

      1. Matilda said that she was reading Dickens recently, and Hani said "Me too", that touched look is so cute! This is a good teacher! !

      2. When Hani communicated with Matilda's parents, she faced her mother...

    Movie plot

    At the age of 4, Matilda had already read the books at home, but they were mostly magazines. Because her father and mother didn't read at all, they couldn't think of buying books for her extremely smart daughter. It was Matilda who asked to go to school before her parents sent her to Kangqin Primary School.
    Miss Trachbull, the principal, was a shot putter, and any student who was disobedient, she threw the child out of the wall like a...

    • Agatha Trunchbull: I cannot for the life of me understand why small children take so long to grow up. I think they do it deliberately, just to annoy me.

    • Million $ Sticky Host: For those idiots out there who don't know how to play, here's how it goes. For each correct answer, they'll move one step closer to our Cube of Cash. Once in our Cube of Cash, any money that sticks to your gooey body, you get to take home!
