Phantom Thread

The editing and narration are very unique. At the beginning, a flashback monologue made people understand half of the plot, while the other half of the more important part unfolded slowly. Will you be kicked out of the house? Did the doctor find out? Why didn't he get furious? Would she like some butter-fried mushrooms herself? ...until the last scene, the surface is peaceful, happy and peaceful.

Every actor is very good, and explained the characters in the film very well.

(ps. Daniel Lewis is really, really handsome.)

The two sisters, who lacked their father's love since childhood, were abused by their nanny and loved their mother deeply, sewed wedding dresses for their mother despite the superstition that they could not get married in the future, but their mother ignored them after marriage.

The waitress in the small restaurant who is prone to blush is seen by the tailors of the upper class and becomes an excellent model, but her gradually expanding heart makes her desire for control a little bit stronger, and she begins to work hard to find her own sense of existence and irreplaceability;

There are also a number of supporting roles - the rich countess who indulges in the degenerate life of lies and exchange of interests, the elegant Belgian princess who has been pampered since she was a child, but sews the word "Break the curse" on the inner layer of her wedding dress, and the married lady who Others even chewed his new wife's tongue behind their backs...

The last dinner scene couldn't have been more exciting, I watched you poison me, you saw I saw you poison me, you smiled at me and fried the mushrooms, you and I looked at each other , I ate this poisonous dinner, I listened to you explain, and kissed deeply before falling down...

This poison is one willing to obey the next - since you are willing to control me, and you are willing to see that I cannot live without you being needed by you, that is just right, I am also willing to be so vulnerable once in a while, and I also long to be taken care of weakly, I also long for someone to take care of me every step of the way, just like my mother was tender and considerate when I was a child.
