This film is definitely a horror movie that can be watched twice, because the first time you watch it, there will be an unexpected ending. When you watch it for the second time, you can watch it with the feeling that you already know the ending before, and you can feel the director. Attention to details.
The most interesting thing about this film is that it looks like a movie with ghosts, but from beginning to end, there are no ghosts. Most of the plot takes place in suburban houses. In addition to the eerie atmosphere, each character has a more or less weird look, which is chilling. But what is even more unexpected is that the content actually involves race, and many language-related dialogues and plots are quite innovative.
After 40 minutes of watching the film, I gradually discovered the truth of the matter, and then suddenly understood many of the previous plot designs. It turned out to be a foreshadowing.
Like the opening scene, the hero and heroine went to the big house of the heroine’s parents and bumped into a deer on the road. The police asked the hero to show her ID, but the heroine was very politically correct to say that the hero is not a driver, saying that he is not a driver. There is no need to show the ID card. It seems to be to help the boyfriend protest against the police's racial discrimination, but in fact it is to prevent him from leaving any clues.
When the party later, the heroine's parents invited many guests, and these so-called VIPs kept looking at the hero with strange eyes, touching his muscles, and asking him whether he would feel superior as a black in this era. , Especially weird, the most weird scene is that the heroine's father is playing a bidding game, and he puts a photo of the heroine, whoever gets the higher price, turns out to be for the hero's body and wants to auction him.
The protagonist’s career settings are also very thoughtful. In the opening scene about the protagonist’s career, the director released a lot of his photographs and told the audience that he is a meticulously observant photographer, so when he went to his girlfriend’s home, Seeing the reactions of her family and guests, he would be very sensitive to these weird places. He carried the camera, on the one hand to let him see more carefully, on the other hand, it played a protective role, and he was able to pass The camera quickly caught some rather weird behaviors, and because he was better at observing, his body was auctioned off by a blind man.
The film is full of thoughts on the details. The above details are only the tip of the iceberg. It is even more rare that most of the time in the film, it is closely related to the issue of race. It is not a simple illustration of discrimination against blacks, but more contemporary people should. The topic of consideration, after Obama became the first black American president, does this kind of discrimination cease to exist? The hypocritical whites in the movie are imaginary and kind to blacks on the one hand, praise them, and secretly try to get rid of them. Taking their bodies away is not regarded as a form of discrimination. This is a topic worthy of our deep consideration.
