The tone of this movie is really depressing, but it's really one of the few movies that, despite being depressing, makes me want to watch it uncontrollably.
Compared with the attractiveness of many well-known actors, after watching the movie, I still admire the development of the plot more. As others have said, the plot will not be too ugly because it is based on the original book. In fact, when I think about it seriously, the movie talks about a lot of things, and it basically spans three generations. It’s really not easy to explain these things clearly in two hours without giving me a sense of tediousness. I really like the multi-line flashback method adopted by the director, which is simple and helps to sort out the plot. More importantly, I think this method solves part of the depressed tone of the movie to a great extent. When I am tired of watching this family , and soon it is a new line of new characters, and the description is not messy. There are no superfluous parts in the whole movie. Each part describes the encounters of the protagonists and shapes their characters. There are even some places that echo the previous photos to create a sense of contrast.
Regarding the narration, in fact, this method is good and bad. Some people think that it causes trouble, because the movie has to be analyzed by itself. But the tone of this movie is actually very depressing, and there are a lot of things to talk about. If it is all about actors, I think it must be complemented by some other things. Adding narration will help the audience to understand more easily. In the movie, I think it's acceptable, and the narration also lightens the depressing tone of the movie to a certain extent. And as netizens said, the author in the original book is this kind of simple and white way of telling a story. I think watching a movie also has this feeling. It seems that I just listened to a story with pictures, especially at the end, the male protagonist fell asleep. The sleeping picture and the vicissitudes of the narration sound really match.
Because I really haven't studied religion in depth, I don't really understand the relationship between God and man, but I agree very much with the point of view expressed in Alien: If there really is a god, it won't take life and death very seriously. I It is easy to create you and destroy you. People live life to be worthy of their hearts, not worthy of God. I always feel that some people who have been brainwashed by religion are pitiful. If people can't even control their own thoughts, how is it different from puppets?
