Brief Comment To High-Rise
Korey 2022-04-19 09:02:35
The composition of the film is really exquisite, the shooting technique is textbook level, the story is simple but the metaphor is strong, the architect is the designer of the building, he knows what kind of system he wants to build, the doctor is familiar with the structure of the human body, so the architect I admired the doctor very much from the beginning, and there is also a two-way echo of the anatomy of the human head and the design of the building in the operating room. In general, this movie is the most profound and realistic I have ever seen, which exposes the huge contradiction between the capitalist classes in the grabbing of resources. One of the movies, but it feels a bit anticlimactic. Maybe it's the reason why you haven't read the original book. The women in the back really didn't understand when they redesign the building. What is the innuendo, the rise of feminism? But at the same time they avenge the helm of the patriarchal society and act as the executioners of the repression? It seems a bit off topic to think this way. I don't know the director's intention for this arrangement. Watch it carefully for the first 40 minutes, and then I suggest skipping to watch it later.

Richard Wilder: Doesn't it seem odd, Laing? That a man can fall from the thirty-ninth floor, and not one police car turn up? Where's the investigation, Laing? I mean, where's the sirens? Laing!
