Talk more. People, you have to label yourself from time to time, that is the definition, or you have to think about what your label is from time to time? Then try to find out why this label is formed on you. People are self-deceiving. We are constantly looking for excuses, like a slide, to quickly squat into the hole that you think is comfortable. As for who dug this hole, you may not think too much about it.

The acting skills of the film actors are average, but the interesting thing is the narrative. In the past, in such first-angle memories, the characters basically jumped back to their own state to narrate what happened at that time. Therefore, although the story is a memory, it still develops linearly. It's easy to understand like watching a new story. But the characters in this movie are completely standing in the present state to recall what happened at that time, which is in line with the normal state of reality. The problem or what is really interesting is that bystanders will feel confused. Simply put, it is the rapid switch between reality and memory. You have to adapt. For example, in the early stage, it seemed like a period of "ignorance" when she was a child. At first, the heroine herself didn't take it to heart, but when she really started to recall, she seemed so restless and cramped, you would feel a little exaggerated and inexplicable. But halfway through the film, when you see her and Bill lying on the bed at that time, you can understand why she is uneasy and cramped at the moment, that should be her body's subconscious reaction. And the second half is to follow her to slowly restore the whole process of the crime and the irreparable damage to her life (it feels a bit dramatic here, how to say it, it feels too biased). Wouldn't it be better to be more just at the end? For example, if the police come forward or something, relieve their anger. Anyone who encounters this kind of thing will have huge emotional fluctuations, but the heroine is very good at covering it up. Except in class, you can't see her showing more collapse. The performance of the first hour was good, of course, after the It must be the director's request, but I still feel that the performance is too much, and I think it should be put on hold. The young actor finally walked down the corridor with the transcript in his hand, and the camera performed 15 degrees upwards, but the performance was not bad.

This kind of subject matter hopes that the crime scenes should be made as obscure as possible. At this scale, I think that your director deliberately spread this kind of behavior.

The reason for the four-star recommendation is that I hope to recommend it. It is different but interesting to recall the narrative technique and the performance of the character actors. Naturally, I hope everyone pays attention to the subject matter. Parents and children should watch it.
