Two moms

I watched two Spanish horror films during this period, one is this orphanage, and the other is "Death Video", which is very good and has a challenge to Hollywood.

The orphanage seems to me to be a film of life that takes place in two parallel spaces. The heroine Laura loves her adopted son Simon, which can be seen from when she told her husband that she took Simon back. "We call him a little boy, he only had two kilograms at the time." This also partly explains why this mother loves an adopted son so deeply, and she took her home from the time the child was born. The child is HIV positive. HIV positive. Perhaps his biological mother passed away in this way. Perhaps the biological mother knew that the child would not die well, so she abandoned him after giving birth. Anyway, the child followed Laura since he was a child, and since Laura was an orphan herself, she took great care of the adopted child.
However, I miscalculated this love. I didn't expect it to be so fearless, even when it faced death.

Two spaces, two lives, the same mother.

Laura made every effort to find Simon, including the normal ones, such as the police, and the abnormal ones, such as the psychic. I admire what the psychic said to Laura in the car before leaving. It seemed to be an explanation, but it seemed to say nothing. You can taste it yourself. If you are not that strong, without the love of that child, maybe you can't do anything. But if you have that strength and that love, then you will see something, that may be what you want.

Laura did not give up. She even sacrificed her normal family life, let her husband leave first, and stayed alone in the gloomy orphanage. When she finally experienced a little bit of the real soul, maybe it was just her hallucinations. , She found her son. In the space of illusion, the son is naughty, hiding in the basement and waiting for her mother to find it; in the real space, the reality is cruel, and the son played a game with her mother at the party and waited for her to come. Looking for it, she was inadvertently locked in the basement by her mother and couldn't come out, so the panicked child fell down the stairs and died.All the mother found was the body of the son who was wearing the balaclava during the prank.
It was still a real space. Mom couldn't bear the pain, so she took the medicine. In another space, maybe it was just a space for her illusion. She told Thomas, who hosted the game, I finished the game. Now, I want to promise. A wish, I want my son to come back. The so-called son coming back here is nothing more than a mental wish before her death, hoping to reunite with her son in another world after death.

This is an unthinkable ending, a The mother resolutely chose the road of death after mistakenly and indirectly caused her son to die. What about her husband? Is that person not that important in her life? Or the meaning of the family is not important enough to make her stronger This may be the ending which is a little bit shocking, just like in , in the end, Jun Hee decided to commit suicide after Eun Hee's death. Suicide belief), people can't ignore it, people feel that it is so paranoid and absolute, and people can't let go of that absolute determination. That behavior repeatedly surfaced in my mind, puzzled and sighed. There is even some appreciation. Appreciation of a person who can identify a relationship with such concentration, without distraction.

Looking at another mother, this mother is bad and vicious in everyone's eyes. Her son is deformed, maybe Dad gave up and escaped from such an unfortunate family. Maybe he didn't want to take any responsibility. However, the mother did not give up, so he took Thomas to the orphanage and became a staff member. However, what the mother did not expect was that the child They were cruel. They laughed and curious about Thomas wearing a headgear. They teased him until a mistake made Thomas die helplessly. So the mother couldn't bear the pain, she chose revenge and used a cruel The method caused the children in the orphanage to die in pain. She is also a model of paranoia. Both mothers chose to punish the perpetrators after the children were mistakenly killed. Simon's mother killed herself, and Tomas's mother killed those children. kill.

both mother and perhaps different is that, if someone else accidentally killed simon, then his mother would not retaliate (but I'm not sure) that, while the mother is tomas will choose revenge.

a fairly A wonderful film, individual shots are scary, but overall it is worth watching. Spain's film industry cannot be underestimated, and the use of plots and shots is very blockbuster temperament.

Sometimes I think, those illusions may be real, so can the soul really live forever? Is the existence of the soul cyclic? That is to say, is the birth of each baby accompanied by a previous soul, or each The birth of a baby is accompanied by the birth of a new soul? If it is the former, how did the first soul appear? If it is the latter, how many souls are there in this world?

I dare not think about these things. Too much, because when you think deeply, you will feel that there are gods laughing there.He seems to be saying: What a stupid human being, do you think you can figure it out?
