This is an obscure, unpopular movie. But why watch this one again? Because of beauty!

First of all, I think beauty and love are very similar. They are both very personal things. I think a person with common sense should not judge other people's aesthetics and love. In my aesthetic category, I think beautiful things have a bit of alternative colors, horror elements and aggressive meanings, like McQueen's clothes and lady Gaga's style, I don't like vulgar and ordinary beauty, it must be a little dazzling Things just feel fun. Although the film is a bit weak in terms of storytelling, it meets my needs in terms of aesthetics. The thick retro tones like sugar syrup, plus the weird elements that make people feel like ants are crawling over the body, are really beautiful.

The number one beauty is of course Nicole Kidman's beauty, with a pair of terrifying blue eyes on the face without hyaluronic acid, and even the hair is so soft and dexterous, Nicole in this movie will always reveal a kind of Faye Wong's demeanor and appearance in 2046, but Nicole's beauty can't hide the beauty of the male protagonist Robert Downey Jr. Although most of the time, Downey is in the shape of the Monkey King, but at the end she shaved her hair naked. When he revealed his true face, he looked at the camera so shyly and timidly, the scarred male protagonist hugged Nicole with white skin, like a classical oil painting; the second most beautiful thing is that the film has a strong retro tone and scenery , not to mention the strange and beautiful props of the circus, just Nicole Kidman's dress, lake blue, lotus root pink, watermelon red, which one do you want to own? The third is the beauty of the lens. The director seems to regard the heroine's eyes as a window for the audience to enter Abbas' consciousness, or the lens of Abbas' camera, or a rabbit hole that falls into another world. I get goosebumps the next time I do a close-up of Nicole's eyes, and the scene transitions from the stairs, sewers, and skylights make the whole film's unsettling atmosphere just right, with a creepy beauty.

I remember being taken aback by the nude park and freak show the first time I saw this movie. But this time around, people who walk naked on the lawn and individuals whose bodies are different from others have their own beauty. If you like weirdos, I'm actually pretty.

Many people have commented on the film that it has nothing to do with the photographer Abbas, but look at the title of the film "Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Dean Abbas". This is an imaginary story. Fur, freaks and Abbas are just a shell. What the film wants to express is the runaway and self-liberation of Desperate Housewives. The marginalized people yearn and long for love and understanding. It is a weirdo looking for another weirdo. s story. So don't watch and judge this movie in the mood of a biopic, just tell me a secret!
