from the wind and rain , the film caught me from the first shot. Not only the protagonist is my favorite actor Michael Shannon, but also the kind of The cloud pressure the city wants to destroy the apocalyptic spirit of the heaven and earth vision.
In the first half, I always thought it was a plot like "What's wrong with Kyle", but I didn't expect it to be exactly the same as "Depression" in the later part. After knowing the last shot, I realized that this is another one similar to "From Now on". The psychic legend.
Michael Shannon’s sluggish face is very suitable for this type of neurotic but foresighted role. The last performance was in "Road to Revolution", and it was the one of the few appearances that made me forever. Remember this uncle, he nominated the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor that year. Although he failed to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor in this year's voice, but for Shannon fans, this time the uncle did not. Let us disappointed. With such a twists and turns of the plot, it is a comfort to the uncle. In the end, you are right. You won all the chips on the table without being optimistic.
For the wife behind Shannon, I think she is the key to pushing the plot to progress. Just imagine, if the wife is furious and wants to break up with Shannon when Shannon drives the jack and excavator to the house for the first time, then Shannon The farmer’s move to seek refuge loses its meaning. If the wife had learned that Shannon had nightmares every night and had a bit of persecution delusion, she timidly took her daughter away from him, it is estimated that Shannon should be tied up and sent to a mental hospital. If the wife was fired from Shannon’s excellent job and almost went bankrupt and lost the opportunity to treat her daughter, if the wife wears a gas mask and stays in the wind shelter for a night and then finds it rains and the sky clears. She laughed at Shannon and scolded her for intimidating divorce. It is estimated that Shannon is not qualified to live anymore. However, the wife repeatedly "connivated" her husband and "risked the world's disgrace and misbehaved". In this way, we can understand that in the last scene, when the wife faced the shocking changes, she used a kind of extremely sorry When looking at Shannon, Shannon didn't have any complacency to complain about the snarling emotions, because he knew that even though his wife had misunderstood him, she never left him. This is perhaps the most difficult love in the world.
Regarding the meaning of the last scene, it is really complicated. In addition to the affectionate face of the husband and wife mentioned in the previous paragraph, which interprets the most difficult love in the world, there is also another dimension of sublimation for the whole film, and the last scene is gone. The film will be reduced to a second-rate psychiatric film, with the final scene of the end of the world, the film has risen to a first-rate apocalyptic disaster film. There are many types of effects that express the catastrophe of the end times. The most intuitive ones are Roland Emmerich’s films, and there is also a type of catastrophe film that combines hidden psychological disaster imagery and violent visual impact, such as pull "Melancholia." The film is more of a disaster as a gimmick to draw a map of marriage and family. Therefore, it can also be understood why the film seldom takes a face-to-face and emphasized close-up of the disaster, even if it is pointed at the disaster occasionally, the screen flashes like a photo. At the end of the film, the heroine is shown from the front, while the hurricane of the doomsday is presented through a mirror mapping effect. The opposite is true, juxtaposed in front of the eyes, the contrast is obvious, and the approaching disaster makes people afraid to look directly. In this way, the effect of huge catastrophe has increased sharply!
The film is intertwined with suspense, which makes people wandering in Shannon’s spiritual world and the reality of the end-time vision. Shannon’s three dreams, dreaming of being bitten by a dog and painful for a day, dreaming of being choked by someone’s neck daughter Being snatched away and struggling to death in bed, dreaming of the wicked beating the door while the whole house is weightless and magnetically suspended and urinary incontinence, such a truly suffocating dream, I don’t know whether it can be interpreted by Freud’s "Analysis of Dreams", but that This kind of magnetic levitation nightmare experience is no stranger to people who have dream tapir pets at home.
In the age when there may be nothing in an instant, a shelter that can find a shelter from the wind and rain and settle down is the desire of everyone. Whether or not to find this shelter in the whole life is the most fragile and lacking in people’s hearts. The joints of security have continued to every corner of the world.
