My Watch Book: "Addicted"

The first thing that attracted me to watch was the background music at the beginning of the film. Although the subtitles of the downloaded version were very bad, I always felt that the movies with this kind of music were not too bad at least. In fact, this music did appear repeatedly in the following story, and every time it sounded, it made people's hearts tremble. "Addicted", I don’t know who first listed it as one of the top ten banned films in the world. Those obscure drug scenes and the few erotic shots can naturally not be the reason for being banned, but if it is because the film puts life in Depression and despair are described too vividly, and on the other hand, such a "crime" will become a key factor for it as a classic film. After watching this film, I really suppressed it for a while. It was not the kind of visual depression that I felt after watching "The Mermaid in the Sewer", but the kind of depression that penetrates directly into my heart and can even see my own shadow. Some horrors are visual, such as "Human Skin Inn"; some horrors are atmospheric, such as "Midnight Ring"; some horrors are psychological, such as "The Shining"; "Addiction" is not a horror film, but But it makes me afraid, the kind of fear that reaches the soul, seems to see those persistent and failed people, as if they are looking at myself, as if I am afraid that I will have to face such a predicament sometime, and whether I can Struggling from this persistent "addiction". Praise the background music in the film, heavy; praise the dazzling montage, shocking; praise the performance of the actors, true, especially the actress who plays the mother-the acting is so sturdy and sturdy.

    A divine work that makes people desperate and sad to the extreme. The soundtrack is so wonderful, Alan Burstin is acting with his life, the high-speed switching pictures and montages are as powerful as a whip, and the photography is the culmination. The actor's body is fixed to shoot, push and pull, pan, pitch and follow, fast forward and slow forward rotation. Dithering and dissolving circles are all-encompassing! The metaphors of seasonal changes are unique, and the mastery of color and rhythm is also perfect. Criticizing drugs on the surface, in fact it is directed at modernity and desire (9.5/10)

    The darkness of human nature will make your heart uncomfortable if you are depressed, but this is the state of life of these people, and neither you nor I can change it. Hope to stay away from drugs.
