      Death is not the end, but another beginning.

      First of all, the film is used to scare people, the power of scare is okay, there is no deep connotation, and the plot is relatively simple.
      The death of the lover brought by the war and the family tragedy of the heroine when she was a child The simultaneous death of her parents and half-brother (son of Mrs. Maud) is the reason why the heroine has been immersed in fear and anxiety, and the heroine lost her memory and forgot her childhood. The tragedy she experienced, but her wet nurse,...

      Maybe there is no script for this movie, the director can shoot whatever he thinks

      If you haven't read the advice, don't read it, the heroine is not likable. It is manifested in several aspects, one, peeping at the male teacher's bath. Second, he suddenly became in heat after taking a bath, thinking that the male teacher was also spying on him, so he ran over naked and told others to "don't go". Third, after taking a photo, he suddenly hugged the male teacher and rolled the sheets - this is the most inexplicable point. The director of this film seems to feel that it...

      For a ghost movie, it's still pretty cool

      The whole film is very gorgeous in British aristocratic style, and the heroine is also portrayed as a beautiful, decisive, and well-educated image. From an appreciation point of view, both the scene and the characters give people a gorgeous but full of a real and fulfilling feeling. Maud, as the mother of the little boy, also fully expressed her desire for the heroine, hoping that she would remember the past, but she also showed resistance to Tom's behavior of pushing the heroine too much. She...

      The Awakening

      The boy in this house was only visible to me and his mother, and he was my half-brother. We are each other's only friends. I love him and he loves me. But he died, the victim of strong and extreme emotions. I should have died, I, the "girl" hated by my father. But when he died, I forgot him, the past, and all the real things, only one thing remained.

      Watching the scene where Tom was lying in Florence's arms, her hand gently around his head still stuck in the boyhood, how could I not...
