[1] The conceptual
event begins when the old woman's dog is lost. There are too many murderous intentions lurking in the snowy woods, ruthless hunters, complicit police, ruthless priests... In fact, human beings are far more terrifying than animals, and they greedily want to control nature, so this film stands on the side of animal protectionists position, strongly denouncing the differential treatment of life.
The movement of the camera is highly emotional. The speed of the camera movement and the sudden and rapid shaking are suggestive, which can easily arouse the viewer's emotions. The combination of lines makes us angry and sad because of the brutality.
There is a very ordinary but very effective clip, which uses "big mouth characteristics" to create strong condemnation in the cynicism of the priest and the police, which is both playful and easy to understand.
On the other hand, the first half of the plot uses a lot of similar mysteries and apparitions as a guise, which is intended to cause confusion; the horror images of many animals staring at it make people hairy. This part of the depiction of nature is a bit like "The Witch". I like the low saturation and heavy shadows. Because the environment has an important position on the plot, the scenery and time-lapse materials are also widely used; the chapter uses the "month" sub-section , and the animals that can be hunted this season are marked on the title page of the calendar, which is very novel and ironic, mainly focusing on the time period when the two colors are extremely opposite in winter and summer.

very clever thing about the characters is that the design of the characters can affect the development of the plot, and many experiences buried in the dialogue or small things are completely used in the second half.
Let’s talk about the protagonist first. Some people think that the old woman is a little too crazy, but maybe it is because the plot needs to do so deliberately. The rationalization of the character’s behavior needs to be matched with the shaping of the lines. The character is resolute and unreal, funny and kind.
The two men who are parallel to the heroine: the neighbor and the pure worm, have a weaker sense of existence, but they are very important to the development of the plot, so I won't go into details. .
The glasses brother is a typical "technical house saves the world", but there must be some kind of disease buff to use his skills; the actor himself has performed a lot of love movies (and gay movies), which is considered to be the face value in this play.
The unfortunate "Miss Good News" is also a two-faced character. She represents a woman who lives under the shadow of a hegemonic male and loses her sense of self. After meeting the right person, her life and character have been drastically improved, making some of her The story has a bit of a "feminist awakening" meaning.
The villains also have their own characteristics and impressive backgrounds, and this movie is a good teaching material in terms of character creation.

The witchcraft prophecy emphasized by the old woman in the picture adds to the suspense of the plot, combined with the overall dark and deep tones and a few small warm-colored light sources. In terms of scene expression, the contrast between light and dark atmospheres is distinguished. When an event occurs, it is somewhat low-saturated and dark, and when it is about explaining the relationship between characters or other plots, the contrast of red and blue becomes the main color (some use yellow and blue in combination), the most obvious art configuration. In the grocery store of "Miss Good News", there are only these four colors, which achieves harmony and unity, and also makes the audience focus on the bright red and blue heroine.
This film is very clever in focusing on the focus, and the intensity of the light is clearly handled; there is a very interesting scene where the old lady leads the students to find a dog late at night, and the beam of the flashlight is waving in the deserted woods, forming a kind of stage performance like beauty.
The setting of the scene is not too many, and the texture is correct, which is a bonus, which can well highlight the situation and character. The old lady's house uses a lot of handmade cloth products, generous forest decoration, rich and warm colors; the iron cage warehouse is cold and only iron items; in the church part, the children are ironically covered with animal headgear, and the priest is It is placed as a separate visual point on the second floor high platform, which is a bit ironic of operating puppets.
[4] Sound
design has always played an important role in the movie. The soundtrack of "Mysterious Hunt" has a Hungarian dance feel, which reverses the tragedy of the murderers into a hearty revenge, and even forms a bloody rhythm that makes the audience very cool; useless Not the slightest sad or scary music.
The other part of the voice comes from the narration of the old woman. Her speculation about the character's growth experience, combined with the vision of superpower (actually a brain hole), is very interesting.
But it's a pity that, whether it's the wailing of animals in the air-raid shelter, the echoes of the corridors, or the chirping of insects, they are all based on the established impressions in the traditional concept, and there is not much innovation.
