not a snack candy, but one of many online slang, referring to underage girls.
A modern Little Red Riding Hood story is my first impression of this movie. Of course, the screenwriter's imitation of classic fairy tales is not just Staying at the level of "the protagonist is a little girl in a red cape". - To go beyond the topic, among the many adaptations of Little Red Riding Hood, I like Oshii Mamoru's movie "Jin-Roh" the most. .
synopsis: thirty-year-old photographer Jeff singles in chat rooms and get to know the 14-year-old girl Hayley, similar to the two later met at the coffee shop later, Hayley innocent man's family was invited to enjoy the Goldfrapp concert recordings. ... An ambiguous online dating incident gradually turned into a nightmare
that led to a wolf entering the room. Faced with a first-time girl, Jeff always thought he was a wolf, but he was completely wrong this time.
Hayley chose Jeff as his prey not by accident, but He was asked to confess to a recent case of the disappearance of a minor girl (Donna Mauer). In order to get him to confess the crime he committed, Hayley did not hesitate to threaten him with everything he possessed. The torture of his body was just this game. The beginning.
As Hayley said in a line:
"Didn’t others teach you not to drink beverages that you did not pour yourself?"
Don’t overestimate yourself, because it’s hard to keep the big gray wolf also becoming the prey of Little Red Riding Hood.
Although it is adapted from a real case, and it seems to have referenced the classic sadomasochistic movie "Audition (cut skin love)" directed by Takashi Miike in 1999, some plots of Hard Candy do not seem very credible. Fortunately, there are Acting remedy for the hero and heroine. Born in 1987, Ellen Page, who is less than 20 years old this year, has taken the role of the 14-year-old girl in the film very well. She seems to have the kind of righteous and evil that a powerful actor should have. (It seems that the "evil" part is more brilliant) and there is a faint shadow of Natalie Portman.
There is no clear account in the play whether Jeff committed the murder (maybe his confession in the ending is a fact, I don’t Dare to guarantee), and did not confess Hayley's true identity - maybe she is indeed an avenger, maybe she is just a violent paranoia, anyway, she also admits that she is an insane - it makes this story more like a fairy tale, a black fairy tale .
... unmotivated, the outcome is unknown
and perhaps there is no answer at all,
but rather the process of looking for answers.
