somewhat perverted

After watching "Hard Candy" (meaning underage girls), my heart is not calm. It's been almost a year, and I almost only watched the movie that just came out. I watched this one released in 2005 today, and I watched Juno Or in "Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story" or "Inception", I didn't think Ellen Page's acting was as good as the media commentators said, only now I know, this girl What a natural actor.
At that time, I read the title of the film with a relaxed attitude, and then I found out that the drama is not suspenseful, but it also makes the audience constantly speculate about what will happen next. A room, two actors, constant dialogue, various climaxes, slight violence, do you think it looks a lot like "Sleuth" by Jude Law and Michael Caine, these two films have too many similarities It's not like "Fight Club", "Shutter Island" or "ID Identity" or something like playing in the mental or neurological world, and it's not like "Seven Deadly Sins" (Se7en), "Primal Fear" (Primal Fear) or "The Usual Suspects" (The Usual Suspects) play crime genre, although it is a thriller, but it is not like "The silence of the lambs" (The silence of the lambs) ) or Triangle, and it doesn't look as complicated as Mulholland or Inception, and so on and so forth. This kind of film not only tests the strength of the actors and the ability of the screenwriter, but also tests the patience of the audience. No spoilers for the movie...
In fact, Jeff and Hayley both have mental illnesses. When Jeff said that he asked Hayley to see a psychiatrist, he didn't realize his own problems (until the end). When he saw the fake castration, he was completely shocked by Page. I was cheated by TMD like Jeff, and this is also the most "perverted" part of the film. Accidentally spoiling this paragraph because it seems that everyone has a bit of a perverted mentality, but most of us just want to take revenge on others in our hearts, and few people dare to really take a knife and slash others. Some people's perversions are for themselves, just like Jeff, and Hayley's perversions come from others, it seems that her friends are hurt too much. I remember more than fifty minutes when Hayley said: "Am I a born queen of revenge, or did this cruel society change me?" This somewhat showed her resentment and helplessness towards this society, and she had to take revenge on this society in an extreme way. Not just Jeff.
If you want to take revenge on others, you must be prepared to sacrifice yourself. A fourteen-year-old girl will not know so many bad methods for no reason, and she can plan such a sophisticated trap. When she knows this, she will be far away. Fourteen-year-old world, I don't know if Hayley finally realized her danger, or after revenge on Jeff, she thinks she can go back to a normal life, I'm afraid like Jeff said, this incident will help her for the rest of her life. , let her live will never be comfortable. So, there are some things that I can't bear to take revenge in a way that is beneficial to myself, otherwise....
