      The director worked hard to give us hints

      "Spider" is obviously not as obscure as "Mulholland Road" so that I can understand it with a simple logic like me, so although the film reviews of the predecessors have been very good, I still want to talk about some details.
      The most enjoyable thing about watching a suspense film is the endless aftertaste after the end of the story. At the beginning of the film, with the piano appearing illegible paintings, mixed with vague faces or demons. From here, the director has actually begun to...

      Own tragedy

      Several pictures similar to the Rorschach test at the beginning of the film clearly show that the theme idea will not be separated from the shadow of Freud's theory. When the audience examines the role, it is the role that oppresses the audience. The character is entangled in memory fragments, personally destroying the complete puzzle that is about to be completed, struggling but hard to get rid of, and unwilling to admit the shackles of childhood shadows. The fantasy about a prostitute...

      Fiennes is top acting


      "Director David Cronenberg movies that you want to create a gothic fantasy feel that deeply immersed in the audience disrupted the protagonist of his true memories brought camera shake in"

          "Even if passed In the years of no doubt, years have still not changed some of the personality traits that Ralph Fiennes has accumulated since childhood. He never forms a group, loves solitary relationships, mavericks, withdrawn, reluctant to speak, and guards against consciousness. Very...

      It's kind of "unexpected surprise"

      +++Note: This article

      is a little involved in the plot content+++ I have never appreciated David Cronenberg's style very much (even if the joke-level "Mr. Butterfly" is subtracted), but he made this film quite calm and unexpected Expected. Generally speaking, movies with a theme that emphasizes "the real and the illusion are indistinguishable" are too fond of playing with the so-called boundary between the real and the real. The problem is that the movie itself is already an illusory...

      Thoughts on Watching "Spider Nightmare"

      (April 16, 2006) Last night, "Spider" was finally screened in the Discovery Theater of Central Sixth Station, and they translated it as "Spider Nightmare". I wanted to watch this film a long time ago, but I had a nightmare at night because of watching "X existence" by this director (David Cronenberg), and I was a little afraid of this "Spider".

      This time I still can't help but watch it. It's rare that CCTV will show this kind of film, which is a typical psychological divisive film....

      1 It seems that the audience has also become that patient. 2 The son saw his father cheating on him and killed his mother in partnership with a blond girl. In revenge, he pulled the gas switch with a rope and eventually caused the death of his father and stepmother. 3 Perhaps there has never been a blond...

      One of the samples of psychoanalysis movies: remove the alternate memories that are chaotic like spider silk, and discover that the spider that knitted the web was himself. In order to confirm the alternate memory, he wanted to kill the prostitute, but the real memory was awakened due to the overlapping of the "mother-killing" actions. . The subject is not difficult to understand, but some of the illustrations are very puzzling: factories, mirrors, bundles of newspapers, making it look like a...

      The perfect model of Freudian interpretation, the psychological exploration journey created by subjective narrative and director scheduling, the most fascinating is the state of confusion and confusion. The narrow retrospect of personal perspective creates a one-sided presentation of the situation, but the protagonist. The mental state of the self always reminds the audience not to be overly empathetic, thus creating a sense of alienation. More importantly, this kind of treatment makes the...
