Starring Daniel, who played Harry Potter, the male lead's wife died in childbirth, and went to an abandoned mansion because of the need to evaluate statistical properties, Thus found some old events in the photos and letters.
Although the plot is common, but the overall film is quite good. The color of the film is inherently gloomy, and the location of the haunted house is surrounded by swamps, giving people a sense of loneliness, isolation, powerlessness and depression. Some people say why the male protagonist and his son are still dead at the end. There are three opinions: First, the male protagonist has been cursed by the woman in black, and the background sound also mentioned "I will never forgive the person who killed my child", which is It is said that although the male protagonist found the body of the child of the woman in black, the curse has not been solved, and her grievances have been deeply rooted. The second version: The body of the child found by the male protagonist is not the son of the woman in black, but the son of the second male. The film also said that the body of the man's child could not be found, because with the rising tide, the body was washed away. He left, and happened to be dug by the male protagonist, so the root problem was not solved, and the natural curse was not cracked. The third argument is more humane, at least at a certain point: the male protagonist and the children have a very bad life, the male protagonist is immersed in the grief of losing his wife all day long because of the death of his wife, and it is difficult to get out of it, and there are even fewer children. The care of a mother's love, rather than living in such unhappy pain, it is better to let them all die and reunite with their deceased wife. At the end of the film, the male protagonist opens his eyes, the color of the world around him has changed, the audience can tell that this is not the world of living people, he is already dead, but the male protagonist in the film has not experienced the pain of death, He was still inspecting the changes around him until he opened his eyes, which shows that he has no memory of the moment of death. In the end, the woman in black turned her head to look in the direction where the male protagonist was supposed to be. Although her expression was blank but not hideous, what did this mean? Is it for gratitude? In another way that is difficult for ordinary people to understand and accept? However, the fact that the male protagonist's smile when he sees his wife walking from the fog just shows this. Regardless of the above three points of view, he finally got the happiness he wanted most.
PS: This film makes a certain Luo Duo feel a bit like "The Conjuring", but the actor's skills are online.

    If the original is really like this, I really don't understand that it is Mao's best-selling, and this film is really right by my friends, and it's not even a thriller.

    Daniel looks so small or Harry Potter, but his acting skills are really good. Ignore the plot.
