The Collector: It is said that if life is only as first seen

The heroine is a beautiful butterfly. Maybe she doesn't speak, and he just follows her like at the beginning and observes her every move. This is the best memory.

But he is a collector of butterflies, so he will collect beautiful things. When he kept her in his dungeon, everything was doomed to be the beginning of the tragedy.

It is said that if life is just as first seen, the beginning of all events is beautiful. However, if you have more contact and understand more, you...

A butterfly spring dream of the deceived audience

At first, when I saw the male protagonist being gentle and graceful, I thought it was a story about a moron and a Stockholm goddess. Tragedy; it wasn't until the end that I realized it was just a criminal record for an incompetent collectivist. I thought that William Wheeler only broke my lust and sympathy at the end of the chapter. In fact, the closed and treacherous environment and the tense and long indoor two-person rivalry have already prepared the ground; I thought that the male...

distance between people

Psychological thriller movies are not a rare subject in modern times, but in creating suspenseful atmosphere and plot changes, there are still many movies of this type in modern times that lack a clever script and a skilled director. In the sense of creating suspense, [Collector] is actually far less outstanding than [Voyeur] and [Psycho], which were born a few years earlier. In terms of plot settings, [The Collector] is even weaker than the other two, but from a thematic point of view, what...

it's just a dream

Literally translated as "Collector", more Chinese translation as "Butterfly Spring Dream". This film can be said to be a combination of "Psycho" and "Silence of the Lambs". The male protagonist in the film likes to collect butterflies to make specimens, and binds his beloved girl and imprisoned him in the cellar, hoping to develop love through mutual contact for a long time. It's a pity that what the male protagonist with a strong sense of inferiority does to the female protagonist is not love...

Impossible Mission: Forbidden Room Cultivation

The scenes of the film are concentrated in the secret room, and the narrative is slow, but 119 minutes still attract people's attention. The male protagonist is an autistic butterfly collector. After winning a huge prize, he bought a remote country house and successfully hijacked a woman he liked and kept it in the basement. The secret room is like a cave, but it is comparable to the nostalgic version of a star-rated hotel, and the meals carefully prepared by the male protagonist are delivered...

To be honest, at the beginning, my heart was towards the male protagonist. Even if he broke his promise to let the female lead home on the last day, he didn't do it. I can understand it. Even the heroine died unfortunately, the hero is the murderer, I don't hate him so much. It wasn't until the last second - he was back on the road just to catch the "thankful" butterfly - that I woke up - this is a pure-blooded pervert! Movies of the past have a lot of...

There is no doubt that the performances of the two protagonists are excellent, and William Wheeler also contributed his years of directing skills to this seemingly two-hour perverted psychological film, which is about half an hour in actual content. It is lower than expected, but it is worth watching. , I personally think the ending is not good...

In fact, Wheeler's scheduling is classical, but not conventional, and many shots (for example, the wide-angle shot from the second floor of Shuimanjinshan) are very detailed and brilliant. The relationship between the sexes was really tepid before it was put into New Hollywood, and there are articles that can be written everywhere. If you don't expect depth, it is indeed worthy of its classic name to be able to make a closed two-person show so beautiful. The male protagonist's picture of the...

The voyeuristic gaze before the kidnap underscores her significance as a specimen to the collector. The intermingling of suspense and light-heartedness in the musical score and the constant shift of tone substantially diminishes the graveness of the crime and intentionally obscures the boundary between morality and immorality. The delicate depiction of the collector's obsessive psychology and almost admirable self-restraint, make it hard for the audience NOT to feel empathetic. This is an...
