Many people don’t understand Dolan’s use of a lot of slow motion. I didn’t feel comfortable before, but when I saw an interview with Dolan that day, he said that he actually didn’t watch a lot of movies, so he was actually not influenced by other movie styles. Therefore, plagiarism and other claims are not valid. Secondly, his films are not based on too much foundation. They are all expressions of life’s thoughts and feelings. He said that his films express feelings, and he expresses feelings in a way that he thinks reasonable. Pass it to the audience, so that you can understand these slow-motion close-up shots. Because these delicate feelings are really impossible to create by dialogue and lines, he used all the details, including clothing, background, light, music, and silent actors. His expressions, movements, etc., coupled with his iconic slow motion, give the audience this feeling. He wants to get rid of the constraints of rules, ignore the voices of others, and use his own ideas and methods to maximize the audience to the atmosphere and emotions he creates. Therefore, he will be criticized by others for his skills, and these people instead Focusing too much on form and ignoring what Dolan really wants to express, these criticisms seem to be meaningless. Obviously, Dolan's taste in music, fine arts, plastic arts, and a sense of space is an important source of his genius. I also believe that these are all the results of his "heartedness" and emphasis on expressing his feelings. Therefore, children’s shoes who are keen to criticize Dolan’s aesthetics, I do not deny you, the world is beautiful because of differences, and I sincerely hope to identify with each other. If you think more about and understand issues such as lengthy, too much slow motion, and fragmented editing, you will Gaining gains, because thinking about changing positions, Dolan must have also recognized these problems, and the reason for doing this, if you know him enough, or if you know him well enough, or if you are young and inexperienced in the world, you have not enough frustration and a new born calf director. Tolerant, you will get a satisfactory answer.

    The costumes in the film are simply exploding. The whole movie is simply decorative art. Dolan combines editing, costumes, screenwriters and directors. In fact, he can cross-border fashion design and interior decoration. The surreal slow motion in the film is super beautiful, and then Susan Clement's performance. Does Melville Popper play a masculine lesbian? Many Lan's love has transcended gender, and de-genderization is still very avant-garde. ★★★

    Xavier Dolan's third feature film, continuing his personal aesthetics, begins to rise to the confrontation between the marginalized and society. The much-criticized slow-motion has been restrained, and the narrative ability has also been significantly strengthened. For example, the stream of consciousness scene in "The Hours" is quite amazing, but the nearly 170-minute film length not only exposed his shortcomings in rhythm control, but also showed that he still A narcissist who doesn't know what to do with editing.

    Laurence Alia: [showing her a metal pin] Excuse me, miss. This may sound a little stupid, but... the guys over there made this. If you take it, I'll get $20.

    Fred Bellair: [taking and looking at the pin] What is it? Some kind of cloud?

    Laurence Alia: [laughing under his breath] No, it's a butterfly. But the fact you think it's a cloud minimizes my pleasure.

    Fred Bellair: You just made twenty bucks.

    Laurence Alia: Okay, here's the deal. $10 for gas, and $10 to buy you a drink after wrap. Hm? Deal?
