To the afternoon of the weekend-watching this movie from a female perspective

A movie that I watched because of a good rating

I don't think this film is a horror film. The dim tone and space are the visual style deliberately created by the director, which is intended to let the viewer experience the life of the elderly. The scary thing is not to grow old, but to die alone.

A few moments that remind me:

The first scene enters the house to look for grandma. When they walk to the grandma’s bedroom, the daughter and granddaughter are about to push the door into the bedroom. The daughter stops the granddaughter and chooses to enter first. It seems to indicate that she may be faced after entering the door. Death. This seems to give this house the power of internal corruption, living here is bound to death.

The second scene is the dance of the lost grandma and granddaughter. The carefully selected skirts and exquisite makeup are the grandma's attitude towards life. When dancing with the granddaughter, it is warm, and it seems to be saying goodbye to make up for the lack of it. Good time.

In the third scene, three generations of grandparents and grandchildren are lying on the bed and cuddling each other, showing the inheritance from generation to generation. I will eventually grow old. You will become my support, and I will become who you are now.

The story line needs to be improved logically. It is based on family affection and discusses the relationship between life and death, space and life. It is very obscure. The overall climax is about 20 minutes at the end, which is too long.

    love the concept, but the plot is too bland.

    As a debut work, I don't expect it to be conceptually novel and groundbreaking, but pay more attention to the completion of the story scheduling well. Continuing the horrible fables about family and intergenerational relationships in "Genetic Doom", and then using the collocation of the three actresses, the old, the young and the young, to complete the story in a state of "low match". What may be more impressive is the excavation of the mental state of "loneliness", the claustrophobic houses, the dark rooms mottled with mold, and the life neglected and forgotten by the people around due to illness, combined with seeing the nanny punching and kicking the elderly. News, I feel a different kind of chill in the reality and virtual world.
