      Mommy--A Story about Mother and Son Feeling

      From "I Killed My Mom" to "Mummy", the boy Dolan finally crossed the hurdle that he couldn't get through and made the most beautiful reconciliation with himself. Rather than being immersed in irreversible emotional protection, it is better to simply let each other's feelings stay in the most perfect moment,...

      The movie "Mummy" - the growth of a mother

      If you are a mother, did you have any troubles in the process?

      If you are a single mother or a separated husband and wife, and a mother with children, what kind of troubles will you experience?

      If you're not a mom, what's the biggest problem you can think of about being a mom?

      What is the source of all this trouble? !

      After watching the movie "Mummy", I completely lost my analytical ability, but my personal feelings continued for many days after watching...

      "Mommy" to those mothers who are burnt out

      "Mommy" - To those mothers who are exhausted [Welcome to add my WeChat: yiyingwww]

      A 140-minute movie with a long and trivial plot, I watched my mind swell and my body aches, but I could only Boldly continued watching, I just wanted to fight to the end with this director who was also in 1989. If the audience is given such a torment-like experience, it is also the director's design. It has to be said that they are indeed ghost-level characters. After all, the two families in the film...

      The powerless love at the bottom of society

      Speaking of maternal love, whether rich or poor, there are many examples, and it is impossible to distinguish the maternal love of poor and rich mothers.

      In the movie, poverty is used to set off the difficulty of maternal love. The more difficult it is, the deeper its love is.

      The human brilliance of the poor always makes people sigh about its greatness. I remembered the movie "Knock When Happiness Comes" that I watched when I was a freshman. It was also a story about how a...

      The perfect combination of director and actor

      The director ahead is haunted by the brainless fans, please evacuate the non-combatants quickly.
             Xavier Dolan is a talented director and actor born in 1989. In 2009, when he was less than 20 years old, he wrote, directed and acted in the film "I Killed My Mother", which was shortlisted for the Director's Fortnight at the Cannes Film Festival, and won three awards against many famous directors.
             The first Dolan's work I remember watching was I killed my mother. At that...

      What do you mean by the future setting? The Canadian government has no right wing anymore, right? Wonderwall is really an ultamite Dolan moment. The two paragraphs of the opening frame are a bit silly and cute. That kid, Le, who came to the Shanghai Film Festival two years ago, has grown so big! Feeling like a mother for a...

      I thought that the pure form of the movie could not impress me anymore. But when Steve opens his arms to the sound of the eagle, then stretches the 1:1 frame to 16:9 with his hands, there is a rare sublime in the language. Perhaps the most recent impression was the infinite spiral staircase in the...

      There are a few bright strokes, including the opening screen that has been passed through by 10,000 dramas (10,001), but those hysterical tearing scenes and unbearable songs feel like deceiving...

All parents must be responsible for children with psychological problems or send them to a detention center. The protagonists of the film are the middle-aged widow Diane and the son Steve who suffers from attention deficit disorder. Both Diane and Steve have their own personality flaws, and they are not mere victims or villains. Their dialogue is...
