I just thought Scarlet Mountain was a good movie

I don't know the director and other actors of this movie very well, I just went to see it simply because of Higgins.

(This is purely personal opinion, if you don't like it, don't spray it)

At the beginning of the movie, Edith stood in the snow and said that the ghosts were real, and I didn't get any laughs, instead I wanted to read the flashback storyline.

I feel that the early stage of this movie is in a terrifying and supernatural style, but in the middle and late stages, it is a bit biased towards love and betrayal. Although the heroine was pushed downstairs at the end, the poisoned can still confront the hero's sister Lucille in the snow for so long It's a bit unbelievable, but overall, the film has nearly two hours of plot, and after watching it, I feel that these two hours are very meaningful and have not been wasted.

The female protagonist is a stubborn writer who does not follow the trend, while the male protagonist is an inventor from the United Kingdom. The female protagonist is destined to stand out in the eyes of the male protagonist. It can be seen by choosing Edith, the wealthy lady Eunice who controls. Although the heroine saw his father's body in the early stage of the plot, the hero stood indifferently and indifferently. As soon as the doctor arrived, he supported Edith to comfort him. It can be seen that the hero did not love Edith at that time, but Edith and the upper class at the time were not in love with Edith. Most of the wealthy women with little knowledge in society are fundamentally different, and they are far different from Lucille, so it is expected that after that night at the post office, the male protagonist gradually fell in love with Edith, but at the same time he was unwilling to betray. Sister Lucille, struggling between the two, finally confessed that she was in love with Edith, and was killed by Lucille who fell into madness.

I don't think there's anything funny about Lucille stabbing the hero like crazy. Lucille said in the previous plot that the love she and Thomas felt since childhood only came from each other, and it can be seen from all the murders that Lucille did and never let her brother's hands get bloody. Lucille really loves and cares about Thomas, so Thomas' falling in love with Edith is obviously a betrayal for her, breaking her down. How can any woman keep her cool when the man she loves admits she is in love with another woman? It's just that Lucille is crazier and sadder than them.

At the end, Thomas' ghost appeared, Lucille turned to look in a daze, and seemed to have completely forgotten that there was another Edith on the opposite side who wanted to kill her. After Edith called her, she turned around and faced Edith. The shovel swung down didn't even dodge. You think it's funny here, don't you? Do you think it's the heroine's halo explosion? But I think it was because Lucille loved Thomas so much and regretted killing him so much that when he saw Thomas again, all his mind was tied to Thomas, and the heroine succeeded.

In this movie, I really can't tell who is right and who is wrong about the characters. Maybe there is no right or wrong in love, and I can't judge right or wrong, but I can find that the deep love is doomed to lose from the beginning. Lucille clearly loves Thomas more than Edith, so she loses her mind when Thomas' ghost appears, while Edith isn't much affected. Lucille lost Thomas' heart in the end, and for her, it should be no less than losing the whole world.

All in all, after watching it, I was very impressed. If watching a movie is considered a trip, then I will definitely make a worthwhile trip. So I choose to give five stars. This movie definitely ranks in the top three of all the movies I've watched, whether it's the appearance, the plot, or the acting skills of the actors.

I don't know why you think this movie is funny, and maybe it's because we are not from the same dimension?

[Writing a film review for the first time, because I saw a film review with opposing views before, I was a little excited and might be a little incoherent. I also don't know the format of the film review, I just wrote all my opinions. 】
