Synopsis
Eva (Tilda Swinton), a woman who loves freedom and travels, meets Franklin, falls in love and gets married.
But the unexpected pregnancy disrupted all her plans.
Eva had to stop and start the abortion, ready to welcome the baby.
Just under her reluctance, a boy was born, and the couple named him Kevin.
Because Franklin was busy with work, Eva could only take on the heavy responsibility of raising the children alone.
But how can you properly guide your child when you are feeling irritable?
Kevin's upbringing made him different from other children.
He didn't like to talk, he didn't like to laugh, he didn't like to play with his mother Eva, and he didn't even like to call her mother.
This annoyed Eva, but what she didn't expect was that the vicious circle of the relationship between mother and son began and never stopped.
The usual small fights are fine, but this time, Kevin deliberately destroyed Eva's travel map.
This made her unable to bear it any longer, and she crushed his toy in front of Kevin.
The fight did not end, in order to punish Eva, Kevin resorted to a new trick, he deliberately soiled the new diaper.
Eva was so angry that she began to use violence, throwing Kevin aside.
But this fall directly knocked Kevin's arm out of a hole.
What else can I do, send me to the doctor urgently, but the strange thing is that Kevin's maturity is beyond people's imagination.
He didn't make a fuss, didn't even shed a tear in the process.
Not only that, but he hasn't told the truth to his father, claiming that he accidentally broke his arm.
This made Eva very surprised, and this calmness and scheming made people even more frightening in such a small child...
Video Analysis
The film is adapted from the novel of the same name and tells the growth trajectory of a demon boy named Kevin. The strange thing is that the perspective of the film is Kevin's mother, and the director lays suspense through multi-line narrative, from the effect to the cause, and several lines converge at a certain key point. This form is somewhat similar to Nolan's "Memory". Fragments", but the narrative of the film is very complete and not difficult to understand.
The story told in the film can be shocking and then fall into contemplation, and it is also worthy of extensive discussion. The content of the story reminds me of the Japanese movie "Confession". Compared with "Confession", "What Happened to Kevin" is even more confusing, because after watching the whole film, we can't even come to a conclusion quickly, what happened to Kevin?
"Unintended pregnancy", we can know from the film that Kevin's mother Eva did not want to get pregnant. She has always loved travel and freedom, and she is very afraid of being restrained. But sometimes things are so coincidental, the impulse made her pay the price, and the lack of safety measures made her accidentally pregnant with Kevin, so from the beginning of the story, the arrival of Kevin did not bring happiness to Eva. One scene that impressed me was that Eva was more willing to listen to the noise of a drilling rig in the middle of the road than to Kevin's baby crying. At that moment, she could feel a moment of tranquility.
"Emotion transmission", happiness can be transmitted, as can irritability and anger. When Kevin was a little older, he could feel the unhappiness passed on from his mother Eva, so he fought back almost in the same way. The negative emotions of Kevin's two people began to interact, and the vicious circle began.
"Effective communication", I have been trained in the company before, communication is a very important link in our life and work, and in the movie, we actually know that Eva is a person who is not good at communication, this shortcoming is just right Inherited by Kevin, it is difficult to find comfort for two people who are not good at communicating. At this time, although Eva had made up her mind and was ready to live a good life, it was precisely because of her personality and the long-standing bad atmosphere that the mother and son could not reconcile quickly. For example, when Eva didn't succeed in teasing Kevin before, she quickly gave up, which led to her long-term neglect of Kevin, which further deteriorated the relationship between the two. In fact, I believe that Kevin at this time Being very lonely, he probably would have liked his mother to play with him rather than "have a space for each other".
"It's hard to make up", when Kevin grew up, Eva seemed to gradually realize that she really felt guilty about him, and she wanted to do something to make up for it. But we know that many things are only once in life, and it is very difficult to remedy, especially after Kevin compared his childhood with his sister Celia, I believe that every time Eva and Celia are intimate, they will There is a scar in Kevin's heart, and the scar will only increase.
Does Kevin hate Eva? He must hate, but this is the embodiment of love. From childhood to adulthood, what he has been brooding about is the mother's love that he never really got, and what he doesn't get is precious. That's why he made that choice. I believe he was at that time He must have wanted to punish Eva by destroying everything, because only then could he get all of his mother's attention to him.
The film uses the whole tragic tragedy to remind us of the importance of education, the importance of communication, and the importance of dealing with people. Many things may seem extremely small, but the impact it brings is long-term and huge. of. I am more and more convinced that there are no inherently evil souls in this world, only demons that grow up in harsh environments.
The souls in the world are inherently asexual and inherently evil, and some are just demons bred by a bad environment.
