"migrant"

It's the emotional line that James Gray is best at shooting, and the picture is still dim and dark, and the importance of actors in it.

Although it seems that his previous movies involved families, gangs, and crimes, this time it was put into a larger immigration history, but the pattern of his movies is small after all, so his movies will always be brought by ordinary audiences from the beginning. Entering the theater with excessive expectations, but in the end did not get the consumption of genre films.

But this does not affect his favor by Cannes and the "Manual".

    Very regular and old-fashioned style, the soundtrack of the editing shots is clean and all hidden under the story, and it is not overwhelming. Only the last shot can enhance the connotation of the story in form, but the suffering of outsiders [forcing the good into prostitution, moral redemption] and love, hate and hatred They are intertwined without digging too deep, and love is too perfunctory to rely on love at first sight. Joaquin still gave a very good performance, Jeremy's role is too simple.

    It's okay, it told a very smooth story, but it didn't touch my point, alas
