Nothing is more ironic than a heart surgeon

The fit between the script and reality is self-evident, not the absurd dystopian black comedy of "The Lobster", it is very likely to happen in everyone's life (of course there is no absurd curse)

The hero has a cowardly and hypocritical heart under the strong ego halo. There is nothing more ironic than a cardiac surgeon. In the film, he abides by the principles of doing things, inflexible manners and speeches, and special hobbies. tragic ending, and it all started because of him

Martin's image not only has the original human revenge psychology, but also grasps the perspective of the omniscient and omnipotent God. The grotesque perspective of the whole film is subject to his arrangement, and he uses his words to express the director's thinking in this film, especially when he and the doctor broke out in the basement serious conflict

The film does not explain too much about the follow-up of the so-called "Death of the Holy Deer" curse. The ending is full of ritual, extreme slow motion, the tragic John Passion, the characters' complex emotions, and the helplessness and desolation of looking at each other. The abyss where tragedy pushes to climax

    Much better than "lobster". Lánthimos uses mysticism and causality to construct a "medical trouble" story full of suspense and horror, but in his bones is the most primitive homomorphic revenge thought. Tooth for tooth and fate for life were written into the "Old Testament" more than two thousand years ago. In a sense, "Holy Deer" is nothing but a modern renovation of fundamentalism. The male lead also played "Dunkirk" this year!

    Continuing the grotesque style of the director's previous work, the modern version of Isaac's sacrifice has such a mystical setting of crime and punishment, and an indifferent bystander perspective.

  • Martin: He should have come out of that surgery alive, but he died.

  • Student's Dad: The boy is very good at math and physics. Kim is very good at literature and history. They're both a little restless, but they've never been rude to any of the staff.
