If the publisher has enough wit
to inherit the residual power of "Black Swan", it can actually be translated as Black Sheep: the slut Mary, the alcoholic Ken, the language barrier Ronnie, the manic Karl, are all It is used to set off the Hepple family of three (including the new Baozai Kate). "One Year's Missing" is another recent British film with a strong sense of class criticism besides Fish Tank.
The difference is that Fish Tank's ridicule to the middle class is between the Chernogul level 7 and the Fukushima level 5 nuclear leak, and its offensive is more violent than that of Basel; "A Year's Missing" is gentle and gentle, with blood on the ground. On the wind, there is a sword in the throat when talking and laughing. It is the unknown woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown, which is relatively obscure. Here's what "One Year Off" excels at: The audience's class, including age, education, family ties, marital status, and even personalities of acerbic or sympathetic, will determine whether they can read the deepest parts of a film. deep.
Whose stove doesn't have a fire?
In retrospect, at the beginning of the film, the heroine Gerri Hepple's life style was written very clearly: Gerri was a psychiatrist, and when he sent a middle-aged woman who could not be saved, he said, "I'm ready at any time." You like to come again, no pressure, it's up to you ------ After hearing this kind of talk, do you believe that this depressed and helpless woman will really come back? Gerri seems to be tolerant and respectful, but it is actually a typical bureaucratic mentality, very cold (note that after the patient left, Gerri closed the door and sighed helplessly, which is exactly the same as the reaction of the new baby at the end, knowing that Mary will not leave. ).
The Hepple family and the slut Mary have been together for 20 years. Since the blind can see that the slut is mentally ill, Gerri can't see it until the slut inadvertently stirs up the stability of their family (it's just an earthquake of a few tenths of a magnitude, and pediatrics is extreme). Gerri turned his face and didn't recognize the person, and coldly told the slut to see the doctor. The author sharply depicts the hypocritical nature of the middle class, but does not criticize morality. The general audience, who has no worries of food and clothing, and the audience who is identical to the protagonist couple, will only feel that it is what it is. There is no right or wrong, and the world is like this. Personally, would you do a better crisis management? A shovel slut in a wok, it's fair and just, who's stove has no fireworks?
The surface structure of "A Year's Missing" is the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the inner structure is the process of Tom and Gerri
's inability to win, and the process of breeding offspring for the family. At the beginning of the film, there was a dinner with relatives and friends. All black colleagues (a well-rounded middle class, of course not racially discriminated), brought a BB and became the center of attention. The slut was late, smoked and drank alcohol, of course it was bad teaching The reverse of the fine road. The second half of the son brought the new baby back to meet the parents. Of course, he was like a duck to water with the future grandparents, like Ni Kuang and Huang Fei, Tao Jie and Liu Tianci. Listening to the conversation between the new Baozai and the old grandparents, the density of soft and hard heavenly masters is higher than that of the heyday.
Fast beat, slow beat is not as good as off beat, the slut Mary, who was originally a cage bird, ended up "aphasia" and fell into the object of talking to Ronnie, who is dementia; To die, she can only falter and sit in a corner. This is the punishment given to her by the Hepple family for mental abuse to a slut. "A Year's Missing" is a film that saddens the proletariat.
