■21:00~22:40, I finished watching the rather unpopular thriller "I Remember You" (Iceland/2017), a suspenseful horror film about missing boys and supernatural events in Iceland. The film is adapted from Icelandic crime novelist Isa Sigurdotti's novel "The Forgotten Boys". The whole film discusses religious fanaticism, belief and betrayal, through two seemingly unrelated bizarre clues. And many mysteries about psychological redemption and so on. The "Yin-Yang Communication Line" jointly constructed by Catherine, Liv and the "wrongful soul" Bonodus, who died in 1956, and the doctor Frel struggling to find the missing line of their son Benny, finally ended in the last ten minutes of the film. By stitching and intersecting the relationship between the two lines, the previously seemingly messy details and many doubts have also become clearly visible after the "green submarine" is revealed. The trapped undead urgently need to find an exit to release, while the bitter soul ravaged by demons day and night is also looking for a dark corner of peace and rest, only because of the doomsday brought about by hide-and-seek, with the greater horror hidden in the iron house. The secret news has resurfaced, leaving the audience with only endless sighs and eyes looking at eternal resentment from a distance from the window. Because of Bonodus' "hint", Freer finally took Benny's "Blue of Life and Death", but he could never take away (or did not want to take away at all) the more terrible resentment and endless injustice in the depths of the basement. A very thoughtful thriller and suspense masterpiece, which is full of loneliness, coldness and introspection unique to Icelandic movies. Impressed, 8 points recommended. 【Score: 8 points/10 points】
