An unbearable dark sin

This is the first time I officially write a film review, because the film gives people a lot of things to think about. I watched the film while dragging the progress bar. Although the film didn't have too many bloody scenes, I still felt that I couldn't deal with this kind of thing. Horrifying and dehumanizing abuse.

Gertrude is a poor woman. Unfortunate life brought her selfishness, cowardice and unscrupulous protection of her own children. Slapped and slapped by her own boyfriend I gave him my hard-earned $20. As cowardly as she is, how could she protect her daughter in normal ways. So she built her unscrupulous desire to protect her on the pain of others. Sylvia said you should understand that I did something like this, I just did it to protect my daughter. Yet in court, she so calmly denied all her actions and admitted that his children were lying. Her selfishness and cowardice Once again, it is vividly and vividly. I feel sad for a mother, a woman, and a person. No matter how much I cover my ears and steal the bell, I can't hide her panic in court when the sentence is about to be pronounced. She is afraid and understands her guilt Yes, but in the end I didn't have the courage to admit it in front of everyone.

Compared with the sins of one person, the sins of a group of people are more terrible. When the children of Gertrude were asked in the court, why did you abuse them, they innocently and regretfully Say, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. I don't know if that counts as Milan Kundera's kitsch. One person says she's wrong, so a bunch of people start thinking she's wrong without judgment. All People, just taking this as a joke, treating Sylvia as a plaything, and cooperating with Gertrude's actions without thinking. And none of them feel it's their fault. So I'm thinking, even if they tell people outside They are tortured, how many people are willing to believe them. The ability of people in the film to think has long been exhausted by kitsch.

Silence and forbearance. When I watched "Dancer in the Darkness", I couldn't understand why the heroine could be so forbearance, but I think it was at least because of mother's love. However, under this kind of sin, forbearance can only lead to tragedy Happened. Her sister said that Gertrude threatened me that if I spoke out, I would be a hundred times worse than Sylvia. Every time my sister was abused, the helpless eyes of my sister made me feel sad and cold. But there is a chance to escape. But she just watched it happen. Ellen Page, the actor who always moved me because of her strong heroine, made me feel so heartbroken and gripped in this movie Crazy. Strength and forbearance are just the best tools that criminals can use in this film. The

so-called an american crime is not just a crime, but the chilling behavior of everyone in the play. A flogging of human nature. A perverted initiator tortured by life, a group of participants who have become indifferent due to kitsch, and two silent people who do not know how to ask for help. In the

film, most people I will choose the broad road that leads to sin; and only a few people will choose the narrow road that leads to eternal life. May people in this world put aside kitsch and indifference, and stay away from the deep sense of human nature of sin.

    Cruel and shocking, both Ellen and Catherine's performances are beyond question. But IMDB viewers mentioned that the truth is far more brutal than the movie, and that the abuse by these abusers is far more brutal than the movie depicts, and no one but Stephenie showed a little sympathy or remorse in the process. A must-see movie, the imagination of a work of art is always outnumbered by reality.

    The film that I have never dared to watch, I watched it with my friends, but I still haven't finished it. It's so cruel, the little girl is so pitiful, what did she do wrong? ! Distorted human nature, a mother can actually do this, it is still based on real events, it can only be said that the reality is too cruel! May the girl's heaven be well!
