Cozy yet heavy

Annie's acting in the family ethics film

successfully shaped kym and showed the complex psychology of this character, which is really unforgettable, although her face is so sweet that it may never subvert the impression of a "princess".

First of all, the family documentary-style shooting method is also the most obvious point that everyone feels. Not only does it look a lot like DV, but it actually uses some DV footage, so you can imagine how you would feel if you were the old Gonzales who was always holding a DV and gleefully. Yes, it seems that this character is very small and delicate. Director Lao Qiao said that he didn't even let the actors know where the camera was. He wanted the audience to look at the family's stories peacefully and objectively. Obviously Director Qiao did it.

In terms of plot, the story seems bland and trivial, but it feels so solid. Before the wedding, Kym's estrangement, inferiority, and hypocrisy are so out of place with everyone who is immersed in happiness. It seems that only she is from hell, especially the direct and indirect dialogue with Emma, ​​which is so disgusting that it makes people gnashing. The kind old father kindly wanted to be pampered, and if a similar situation happened to any of us at home, nine out of ten parents would not. The most unforgettable thing is the sadness, desolation and helplessness of the father who was caught between the two flower-like daughters and endured their quarrel. That worry.

The affection and contradictions of an ordinary American family are told to us almost completely in the shaking and disturbing scenes through the detailed portrayal of the actors, especially Annie. Sometimes the simpler the story, the more thought-provoking it is. There are also intriguing classic lines in the film, even if some are quoted from other places, they are also worth remembering.




In short, warm and heavy.
