      "Quotes"

      "Sometimes we don't do things we want to do so that others won't know we want to do them."


      "There is no one in this village who has not lost someone irreplaceable, who has not felt loss so deeply that they questioned the very merit of living at all. lt is a darkness l wished you would never know. forgive us our silly lies, they were not meant to harm."


      "Yes, l have risked! l hope l am always able to risk everything for the just and right cause. lf we did not make...

      No title yet

      I think it's worth watching.

      My memory is not very good. After reading the previous comments, I remembered the plot bit by bit. But what impressed me is that the avenue for IVY to go out of town to buy medicine is very long and very long. Huang, over the wall, the picture that appeared shocked me. A wall, not only the connection between the town and the outside world, but also two ways of life! Two worlds!

      Talking about love in the film may be a bit vulgar, but This line is...

      Mystery Village Mystery

      Intermittently, I finally finished watching The Village by American Asan M. Night Shyamalan. I watched it for less than half an hour and put it aside. I really couldn't stand his usual realistic style, and sometimes the details were too realistic. When thinking of your brain as multithreaded surfing the web, there are no extra threads to handle a slow-paced movie.

      I have seen two films of this Indian director, one is The Sixth Sense, which was born out of nowhere. Unfortunately, I...

      A love story that stands up to fear

      The reason why The Village has this evaluation is nothing more than the audience's expected psychology.
      For those who enter the theater with the mentality of watching horror movies, the fright index and the ending are absolutely unacceptable.
      This book is understandable. After all, from the perspective of preview and publicity This is supposed to be a horror movie,
      but you should be a little bit prepared when you meet this director,

      but for me, it was because I knew the...

      A bit complicated, or, nothing to do with this.

      This movie was made to watch and write a review by a foreign teacher.
      In order to write a decent review, I found a script to read.
      Finally wrote a review called "I do think about love".
      I do think about love, is the word inside.
      Because Big P said that it would involve responsibility, he was a bit hard-hearted.
      And very positively praised the "love" thing.
      In fact, I want to say more is, dare, and dare not.

      Sometimes we don't do things we want to do, so...

      I watched Amish on National Geographic Channel today, and I thought of the film, so I recalled the plot and seemed to better understand what the film was trying to convey... Especially the movie setting is also in Pennsylvania - was it...

    Movie plot

    In 1897, there were only No. 60 people in a village in Pennsylvania, which was well organized and easy to manage. At first glance, this village at the end of the 19th century is simply a beautiful picture. The villagers live a peaceful and isolated life in a village full of pastoral style, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. However, behind this seemingly self-contained, close and stable rural community is hidden "common sense"...

    Tidbits

    The shoes in the film are all handmade in Italy.
    Director Shamaran chose Bryce Dallas Howard to play Ivy Walker after watching an off-Broadway Shakespeare show in New York. When the performance was over, Shamaran came backstage to introduce herself to Blythe. The two had lunch. Shamaran handed the film script to Bryth, saying that she was the only candidate, because only she could deduce Ivy’s enthusiasm. And innocence.
    There are 3000...

    Before the filming started, Shamaran approached the illustrator Brick Mason to create a plot board for the film. The two spent months sketching out every scene in the film.

    Evaluation action

    The enclosed village environment successfully created in "Mystery Village" most of the time has paved the way for the final reveal of the mystery; but the film lacks a thick script and characters that can be erected. It is only artificially using visual and sound effects. , And the poor plot to try to touch the nerve endings of the audience within two hours, and then settle into their hearts, it is obviously difficult to succeed.
