The storyline of the film is rather thin, although the film attempts to bring out the theme of cherishing family members. But it does not have enough plot to reflect and contain this subject. The movie actor Johnny lived a messy life. The movie footage showed him either smoking or drinking, watching brass dances, and having sex with different female partners. His life was aimless, and his ex-wife was going to leave for a while. Clearly explaining the reason and how long he was away, Johnny needed to take the eleven-year-old girl with him, and gradually established a relationship in various ways. Just when his daughter was about to go to the camp meeting, he suddenly reflected on his loss and worthlessness.
This subject matter actually has depth, but because the director did not handle it well, this subject matter was wasted.
2. It is not difficult to see that the details are inappropriate . The
director deliberately tried his best to depict Johnny's life in the first half of the film. At the beginning, the camera showed two girls dancing brass. It is brass dance; and Johnny watching his daughter learn ice skating is too long, because there are too many repetitive plots that do not help the expression of the theme, and the whole structure of the film is loose and fragmented.
3. The lack of a coherent piece of plot
results in a loose structure and superficial content. Also because the whole movie looks like a piece of unrelated short films. At this moment, the camera sees Johnny's face covered with white plaster for a long time. , the next moment he said he called a masseuse to massage him, and the next moment he was lying in bed smoking, the director can actually connect these seemingly unrelated scenes with some plots.
4. The dialogue is concise and superficial.
The author actually agrees that many times the relationship is not established through a lot of dialogues, on the contrary, it is a long time together, but the problem is that if the father regrets his daughter's neglect in the past, the director should probably show that the daughter is affected by him. Before and after hosting.
The audience can deduce the theme of the story, just that Orchie suddenly cried in his car, Johnny asked her why she was crying, she said she didn't know when Mommy would come back, and you didn't accompany you often. And this sudden emotion seems to have no premonition and lack of brewing.
The audience kept their eyes open, they kept looking forward to how the story would develop, they kept looking forward, and they looked forward to the end, oh, it was just like this, and it was over.
