no death

: The Chinese translation of the movie "from now on" really doesn't match. If Hereafter is simply translated as "from now on", it is much better than "from now on". When I saw another translation of the title "After Death" on the Internet, I felt that it was very close to the theme of the film. The kind of "the poor and the yellow spring, the two places are not seen" - the taste of the two worlds of life and death completely came out.

: Perhaps only a director of Eastwood's age can make such a film with such a calm style. If any director deals with a similar story, he is likely to choose a different path of thriller and suspense. The film may be better than the current one. It looks a lot better, but the taste will definitely be far off. After all, slow cooking requires a good amount of heat. Telling a story honestly in a well-known way is a manifestation of skill in itself. So the hero George in the movie is obsessed with Dickens, I prefer to believe that Eastwood himself is obsessed with Dickens - the old man has really won the essence of the popular and smooth prose of the British novelist. The three-line parallel narrative structure of the movie seems mysterious, but it finally converges at one point, which is really simple and down to the bone.

: In the process of watching the movie, I thought of the "sixth sense" again and again, whether it is a similar sensational theme or a young actor with the same aura - the narrative line of the twins in the movie is very touching, Marcus asked George to tell his dead brother not to The scene that left him was so tearful that it reminded me of Joe Osment's passage in "The Sixth Sense" in which he passed a message for his dead grandmother to his mother.

: It's just that Bruce Willis, with his "sixth sense", is enough to prove to the world that he has profound acting skills, not only in action films like "DIE HARD", but Matt Dimon wants to completely change people's minds The "Bourne"-style hardcore action niche image is a bit underwhelming by relying only on "Hereafter". Matt Dimon obviously still needs to practice his acting skills, and he is far from perfect (you must know that DiCaprio turns It took him a full 10 years).
