      my mother

      The film has a slow and calm pace, but it is full of disharmony between the characters' quarrels. After the protagonist Margarita has solved her problems, she feels unprecedented peace in her soul.

      The plot of this movie is relatively small, so I was a little sleepy in the process of watching it. Based on the idea that I didn't want to give it up halfway, I insisted on watching it.

      There are two scenes in the movie that touched me a little in such a slow and calm...

      Obviously suspected of fried cold rice

      The most painful thing in life is to witness and experience the departure of a loved one with his own eyes. Nanni Moretti has restrained and emotionally demonstrated this theme in the 2000 Palme d’Or masterpiece "Son’s Room". This year's new work "My Mother" still uses a restrained approach to narrate the whole process of an elderly mother being tortured by disease to her death. However, the director has placed another plot for a female director to make a movie. The two parallel development...

      The pain of middle-aged people is similar

      I didn't think how good the movie was, but it was rare to watch it intently, although it took two days to finish it.

      Not long after the film started, the heroine threw it out. "Play your role well, but also stay out of your role." The actress who was left with a confused face was at a loss.

      Behind is a scene where the heroine walks along the line of people from the entrance of the movie theater. She sees her loyal fan, her mother; she sees the two people in the team who are...

      Reshaping power relations

      No longer exploring methods of psychotherapy, in "My Mother", Nanni Moretti turns to insight into the nature of psychological problems: power relations.

      The play is homogeneously divided into three levels: the middle-aged female director is shooting a film about labor-management conflicts, the workers protest the boss’s decision to lay off workers, and they fight for the right to work through demonstrations (serious play); at the filming site, the director...

      The female director struggled to survive in the face of "meaningless" lightness and her mother's critical illness. It's almost a confession of the director, but with a different gender. The Oedipus complex of Italians will always come out in various ways. It's so sad to see... If it wasn't for the pompous American actor, he would be suffocated. (Italians are in charge of playing tricks in American films, but Italian films are...

    Evaluation action

    In the film "Mia madre", the offensiveness and sarcasm faded away, replaced by a calm and calm face, a calm treatment of warmth and relief, which is more masterful. The film explores the emotional and life dilemmas of middle-class intellectuals in a wise way. They are not optimistic about the nature of life, but they are not obsessed with depression, but lead the audience to feel the warmth, dignity and hope of life in light and humor....
