      "Private Shopper": Ghosts, Mystery, and Love

      To tell the truth, although the plot is attractive, it is still a bit confusing, but this peerless good ex-husband who made Maggie Cheung the queen of the Cannes movie still won the best director of the Cannes Palme d'Or with this film. The film revolves around the philosophical proposition of the existence of souls after death. The film also uses historical facts such as the personal experiences of 19th-century artists and Hugo as a foreshadowing, and by the way completes the mission that a...

      Change your clothes, change your skin

      Personal opinion: I think that fashion elements are much better than the simple and crude "fashion films" as a flavoring agent in movies. After all, fashion is more of a device than art.

      In the personal shopper, fashion has become a very important device. Which girl is not moved by so many beautiful clothes and shoes? It's really not just the "I want to be someone else" that your heroine played by K said. Then again, can a sequined dress from Chanel make you someone else? At least the...

      The movie itself is the ghost

      It was a movie that was not suitable for children to watch, but it turned out to be a supernatural movie. It was a big fool, and I never watched supernatural horror movies. Both female pig's feet and her brother have congenital heart disease. They both believe that there is a soul after death. Before the brother died, he and his sister agreed to give instructions. In order to find a clue, the sister became more and more suspicious. She became a demon, and she couldn't find any hints, and she...

      not confused

      As a child who received a materialistic education since childhood, I firmly believe that there are no ghosts in the world. Therefore, the terrifying atmosphere created in this movie and the supernatural phenomena presented in this film are just the confusion caused by the tension and pressure of the heroine in my opinion.

      Director Olivier Assayas, known as the representative of the "French post-new wave" film, still wants to explore the philosophical proposition of "knowing...

      She can't tell me

      The gloomy house, the specious wind. The protagonist in the natural light gradually revealed what she was looking for. Pale face, gloomy eyes, Maureen tried to communicate with the soul on the other end with a lingering sense of uncertainty. She didn't find out. His friend recommended her a documentary about psychic Victor Hugo à Jersey, where people try to find the soul in a shabby dark hut, and Maureen is fascinated in the subway. With the onset of anonymous text messages, there is some...

      3.5, The fragile and restless life and loneliness of the individual are captured by the political economy of symbols, as well as the fashion symbol of "forbidden", and consumption = death. Assayas, a film critic, tries to give a clear, quasi-genre definition of "ghost image" in "Personal Buyer", and completes a "Darkroom Secret" companion, or a typical The Japanese-style ghost movie, in the second half of the film, the hotel corridor elevator, electronic doors and dialogue about ghosts lead the...

      Screen rewatch. Like other Assayas works I've seen, the plot has strong deep meaning but no integration, each thread is on its own at the ideographic level, but the narrative maintains its drive and viewing appeal in a calm uniformity. The casting is interesting, each actor's voice and face are very strange, the speech is expressionless and the sound is silent like a sermon robot. At the same time, the range of lens selection is extremely narrow (basically all mid-range half-length shots), and...

    Pertinent evaluation of

    "Personal Shopper" can be counted as a standard horror movie. The layout of the film and the two clues are very clear, but at the intersection of these two clues, the chaos suddenly arises. Perhaps even the director himself did not think clearly about how to connect these two supernatural phenomena. The ambiguous ending part made the audience see Confused, the story also feels like it will end. The most controversial is that a very...

    The psychological thriller elements that are also incorporated in the film: the haunted house; there are also suspense elements: the murder in the mansion, the harassment of strangers by text messages; and then there are the psychic elements: tangible and intangible spirits. There are a lot of passages of sending messages and watching videos in the film. The only remarkable thing is that the mobile phone receives text messages to...

    Movie quotes

    • Maureen Cartwright: [talking about her deceased brother] So we made this oath... Whoever died first would send the other a sign.

      Ingo: A sign? From- from the afterlife?

      Maureen Cartwright: You could call it that; you could call it a million things.

      Ingo: But... how do you know if it's a sign?

      Maureen Cartwright: I'm a medium. He was- he was a medium. I'll just know it.

      Ingo: Have you... communicated with spirits before?

      Maureen Cartwright: Um. Lewis thought they were... spirits. I'm- I'm less sure. But yes. Uh, somewhat.

      [gets off the couch to smoke]

      Maureen Cartwright: I mean there are invisible... presences... around us. Always. I mean whether or not they're the souls of the dead, I don't know, but... You know when you're a medium you just are attuned to some sort of... vibe.

      Ingo: What do you mean by- by vibe?

      Maureen Cartwright: It's an intuition thing; it's a feeling. You... You see this door... That's only like slightly, ajar.

      Ingo: Well... How's within that, that the soul... continues to exist... after death?

      Maureen Cartwright: I don't even know if I believe in that. But... Lewis did. And I- I have to give his... spirit -whatever you wanna call it- a chance to prove him right.

      Maureen Cartwright: Lewis, is it you?

      [pauses]

      Maureen Cartwright: Or is it just me?

    • Erwin: [to Maureen] You know how they say the dead watch over the living? I've thought about that a lot. Not just because Lewis was a medium. I don't know what that means. For me, he was someone deeply intuitive of others. He, uh... understood things that went unspoken. He did. Maybe because he knew he was going to die. I mean, I felt that he saw things which I didn't. Maybe you do too. He thought you had the same gifts...
