Before watching the movie, n2t.
took a look at the movie introduction and learned that he had come back to announce his death. There is not a single line in the movie revealed, which is equivalent to knowing about it secretly. Putting this in to watch, the last restaurant meal was simply shocking beyond words. Everyone seems to have noticed something. His brother seems to have been told in advance that if he noticed it himself, it would be too "terrifying"!
Not a single line reveals his death, only through a few hints: a phone call with a friend, the dead bird at the end of the film.
Let’s talk about the technical aspects again: the original soundtrack and the freely retractable sound effects; the rich camera language; several tones (the use of solid colors); the capture of the details of the characters (hands, mouth corners, etc.); Dolan's Four Treasures: Hue, Shots, Soundtrack, Brawl.
Please invite these national treasure-level actors, because the emotions and acting skills contained in them are incomparable to young actors. The character of the actor himself works best if it matches the character.
Disadvantage: If I didn't watch the plot beforehand and knew that he was coming back to announce his death, I would probably be at a loss, and I wouldn't be able to understand the acting that broke out at the end. How to solve? I thought about it for a while and didn't know. pending.

    What maintains intimacy is not gain, but sacrifice; what supports the family is not love, but hate. Dolan continued to express his strong dislike of the family and his dependence on the smell of milk. The two ends of the dining table are two worlds completely distorted with each other, but the camera is close to everyone's expression, making people feel resisting, almost accusing the family of embarrassment, noise, hypocrisy and ineffective communication. I don't think this is Dolan's worst work.

    I can't help but think of a streetcar named Desire. It's all about life's weak grace and sensitivity being destroyed by vulgarity, and family life is undoubtedly the best cutting board. I don't know how to tell it. Maybe it's especially empathy for this kind of story, and The lack of empathy is probably an important reason for the current predicament in life. The white lotus blooming in the cesspool intoxicates itself. In addition to the familiar MV Dafa, the hysterical stage play structure from time to time probably makes the actors super cool

It's Only the End of the World quotes

  • Louis-Jean Knipper: There I was, after 10 years, well, 12, to be precise. So after 12 years of absence and in spite of my fear, I was going to visit them. In life there a number of motivations that are no one's business, that force you to leave without looking back. And there are just as many motivations that force you to return. So after all those years, I decided to retrace my steps. Take the journey... to announce my death. Announce it in person, and try to give the others and myself one last time, the illusion that I am, until its very end, the master of my life. Let's see how that goes.

  • La mère: I don't understand you. But I love you. I love you. No one will take that away from me.
