After finishing "The Monster Knocks on the Door", when I saw the title and cover, I thought it was a fantasy commercial, but only halfway through it I realized that it was a realistic drama. This illusion has the style of "The Boy Who Eats Mom", and it is also a very good story. The movie of the story...
Simple comments:
1. Spoilers aside, this is a memoir from a post-traumatic post-traumatic boy who used plausible fantasy images;
2. The story is carefully arranged, using children's psychological projections Inserting memories and telling stories, the narrative is not a conventional timeline, and it is suitable for two brushes to organize the plot; in short, it can be considered as a process of recognizing oneself, recognizing reality, accepting reality, accepting oneself, and finally achieving relief from post-traumatic sequelae;
3. Pay attention to the cast list , There is the old version of Weaver of the opposite sex, there are Star Wars rumors and "Dan Secret" Feli, the drama is inevitable, and the surprise is that the performance of the post-00 male protagonist Lewis is not inferior to the old drama bones at all;
4. Parting may only be a moment . , but this moment will be painfully repeated in the memory, and those who stay will have to adapt and grow in the painful memory playback every day.
