This kind of British film seems to like to express heavy themes in seemingly light content and form, such as the "Third Star", such as this "Rewind Life".
The film uses calm lens language to tell a thought-provoking topic about human nature and life. There is no impetuousness here, some are just quiet thinking and understanding. The performances of TH and BC are slack and slack, and the details are in place, making people convincing, and there is almost no trace of performances ------ This kind of film is actually difficult to grasp the degree of performance, isn't it? If it goes too far, it tends to be dull, which makes people lose the patience to watch it. The consequence of using too much force is that it is no longer true. Anyway, no matter how you look at it, it is still acting (see the performance of Qiong Yao's drama "Roaring Horse" for an example~ Hey, don't digress from the topic. Ah ^_^) I have to think about whether most European actors grew up in culturally rich soil, lack of noise and impetuous invasion in their living space, and are willing to pursue the perfection and abundance of the spiritual world. When you were young - to be able to interpret such a good, deep film successfully?
At the beginning of the film we follow Alex to observe Stuart with pride and curiosity (and even disgust), but as the narrative unfolds, we inevitably feel sympathy for Stuart, and are shocked at how much his young life can Endured such an unbearable lightness... As a bystander of other people's lives, in the face of such an indifferent, calm and even joking film narrative, after watching it, people still feel the uncontrollable heaviness with repression. Stuart's atypical childhood misery led to his inescapable nightmare-like short life... The evil side of human nature can even destroy the lives of others, what a terrifying force! Makes people angry, makes people more sad!
There are many injustices in this world. An optimistic view, with the continuous evolution of human beings, people's awareness of survival and the environment will continue to tend to be better, but it does not mean that evil and misery will automatically disappear... Everyone lives only once, after watching this The movie triggers a feeling that at the stage of life, we should all do something more, for others and for ourselves.
It is said that this film comes from real biographies, and I hope no one will experience such a "story" again!
