Her lucky year was 2010. She was little known by the well-known director Tim Burton and got the opportunity to star in the blockbuster "Alice in Wonderland", and then starred in "Jane Eyre" and other films. . This year, he starred in the film of the famous South Korean director Park Chan-wook, and collaborated with superstars Nicole Kidman and Matthew Goode. The reason why she can be discovered from an unknown little actor is due to her own virginity that does not match her age. In this film, Mia plays an 18-year-old girl. Although Mia is 26 years old this year, there
is still no trace of 20 years of polishing on her face.
It's a story about growing up, just like India's monologue in the opening credits. There was a special shot at the father's funeral. The camera made a close-up of the shoes of the mother and daughter, a pair of girls' flat leather shoes, and a pair of black high-heeled shoes of the mother. And at that moment, India saw the shadow of her uncle, apparently because of the sunglasses at that moment, she thought it was her father. Later, India peeled eggs together with the old housekeeper. The old housekeeper said, "Although you have grown up, you still dropped the egg skin to the ground." Coupled with the previous hints of the shoe close-up, we can understand that India has not really embarked on her growth path.
Her growth started after seeing her uncle. After seeing her uncle, India walked back to the room and said to the old housekeeper, "My father is dead". Explain that her uncle who looked a lot like her father at the funeral thought she was her father. After that, India met Uncle Charlie on the stairs. Here we can detect something from the position arranged by the director. We started to stand up and down with Uncle Charlie. After that, due to the uncle's guidance, India started to walk up, and finally India walked. At the same position as Uncle Charlie, the director arranged a medium shot, so that Uncle and India were able to stand on the same level. The process of India going up is a growing process, and the stairs are also an important item in the film, India After walking up the stairs, putting on high heels echoes the place where you go up the stairs. There is no doubt that the uncle's guiding role in India's growth is implied here.
Does mother really not love India? Of course not. Maybe other people's views on the mother-daughter relationship misled us at first, but the mother absolutely loves India. In the end, the mother wanted to save her daughter and pointed out the triangular relationship between the three people and the three brothers of the father. The triangular relationship echoes. Now let's analyze the movie poster. The station relationship of almost every poster is the same. The three form an inverted triangle, with India at the bottom, uncle and mother at the top (by the way, I checked the heights of the three, Matthew Goody 1.87; Nicole Kidman 1.78; Mia Wasikoworth Card 1.62). In the film, we learned that Uncle Charlie had murdered his younger brother when they were young. At that time, the father was the protector and the younger brother was the protector. Charlie was a perpetrator. . This is the triangular relationship between the first brothers. Many years have passed, and Charlie still keeps his childhood pistol (which India later found out of the box), which proves that Charlie has not eliminated his violent tendencies for many years, and also derives pleasure from killing. So there was a later triangular relationship, mother protector, India the protector, and Charlie the abuser.
As for Charlie, it can be seen from many places in the movie that he is a psychopathic murderer, and the reason for his psychopathy I think it may be his inner love brother plot. When he was a child, because his elder brother took care of his younger brother and neglected himself, Charlie had the idea of murdering his younger brother. Later, Charlie gradually began to find pleasure in killing. For example, Mrs. Jacquen, who opened a restaurant mentioned by Charlie, after hinting that we should be able to conclude that Mrs. Jacquen has been killed by Uncle Charlie. The father Richard's behavior of buying a house for Uncle Charlie may also be to help his younger brother find a shelter from the police, and at the same time prevent his younger brother from getting close to his daughter. The scene of the father and Uncle Charlie in the car is a bit informative, and it is also possible to glimpse the serious psychological distortion caused by the brotherhood complex for Charlie. His brother loves him, but he wants to monopolize his brother's love, so he kills his brother in anger. He has been writing letters to India for many years. His covet was discovered by his father, so his father kept the photos and letters in advance and let India know. Good to tell India that his ultimate goal is to kill India, just like killing the younger brother who took away his brother's favor when he was a child, and killing his brother's favorite daughter who has taken away his brother's favor now. And the reason why Uncle Charlie used India's father's belt to kill people also shows that he has always harbored love for his brother, and it was his incestuous love affair with his brother that made him keep killing.
In the hint of the triangular relationship, one of the protectees was slaughtered many years ago, and the other is India now raising a gun to kill the enemy. The youngest brother in the film hardly appeared, or maybe the youngest brother did not exist at all. The title guest also said to Charlie, "I never knew Richard had a brother." So we can also understand that Charlie lived in India's father's house when he was a child, and later saw his brother dote on his daughter so much, so it may also be India who was buried alive. Now India has the ability to protect herself, she grew up under the guidance of her father, and at the same time let the enemy guide her growth. So in the end she shot without hesitation.
