See you late masterpiece

I just finished watching a movie that we met and hate lately - "Ten Days of Dangerous Love", based on the novel of the same name by Stephen King, the master of horror novels. The heroine Kathy Bates won the 63rd Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in this film. Actor Award. It must be mentioned here that her acting skills in "American Horror Story", which has been updated to five seasons in recent years, really have nothing to say! !
The story is roughly about a famous writer who got into a car accident, was rescued by his female fan, and recuperates at the fan's home. Fans are starting to look like angels, except for being a little overzealous. Later, I found out that this book lover couldn't control her emotions at all, and forced the writer to write novels according to her intentions, put him under house arrest, hurt him, even to the point of killing him...
Thriller, suspense and crime movies have always been my favorite. , This movie is really late, and sometimes the intuitive horror is often less intense than the psychological fear. The heroine is a very complex character. She's moody, extremely emotional, and at the same time human. These characteristics depend not only on the script and lines, but also on Kathy's performance. In particular, there are a lot of low-angle close-ups in the film. Kathy's face fills the entire screen. Looking down from top to bottom, it is really oppressive, making the character more three-dimensional. Anyway, it's a good movie! Cracked Wall Recommended!
