(Public number: Wenyi intersection dong)
This drama should be regarded as the big hit drama of the previous year. What surprised me is that the starring Amy Adams was born in 1974, the actor who played Emma is actually 90 years old, and the mother is nearly 60 years old... well, so this is a well-maintained starring cast. drama……
Plot: The heroine, a reporter who was just out of a mental hospital with frequent emotional breakdowns, but was truly appreciated and loved by her boss, was sent back to her hometown and small town to do a topic on the murder case - a girl was brutally murdered. In the process of reuniting with relatives and friends who have been estranged for many years (especially the mother who did not get along well and the eccentric half-sister Emma) and following up the case, she accidentally discovered the truth of the death of another sister who passed away that year.
It's hard not to spoil, but I've tried my best to summarize my thoughts as follows:
1. Small towns all over the world don’t seem to care about privacy. But no matter what, the villas and the sunshine on the lawn make me, a native of the mountain city, yearn for it.
2. There is often a question that surrounds my mind: what do all the township ladies live on? And the occasional willingness to substitute in the endless splurge of time in this environment. But from a young girl to a very old man, they are all in the same place - this feeling is indescribable. There are acquaintances everywhere who have witnessed your growth history, and you have also witnessed others, and one day you will start to reminisce, reminisce, feel that the world is getting worse, witness each other being eroded by the years, and then say goodbye to each other in this life... Omg.
The famous phrase "live elsewhere" seems to suddenly have a different meaning. At least for now, I hope that my life is like a few balloons that have been tied up in stages, and the passing time will be enclosed in the corners of the house. There is no need to flow, no need to surround, no need to converge... No need really.
3. The house of the hostess' mother's house is beautiful. The view from the kitchen window just envy me. Although you can directly see the house structure downstairs from upstairs, it always seems to lack a little sense of security. This scene seems to be one of the classic scenes of horror movies.
4. The skirts of the hostess' mother are very beautiful. Also in good shape. The actor is an example of a miraculously aged but increasingly fit. In addition, if I didn't read the comments, I didn't even notice that she was pulling her own eyelashes sometimes. I always understood that she was pulling her own false eyelashes.
5. Disliked Emma from beginning to end. Since I was a child, I have always hated girls who are gods and tricks. Of course, this girl is really mysterious. This role is very difficult to play, and the difficulty is not lower than that of the mother and the heroine. Flexible and stretchable, with both angelic and demonic qualities (though not very angelic in appearance), precocious, secretive, and well-informed.
6. The level of music selection is quite high and unconventional. Although the style is slightly depressing.
7. The tortuous experience and spiritual world of the heroine lead to the fact that the usual male and female love does not have the usual meaning in her. In other words, she has a completely self-contained set of values. Frequent nightmares and impulsiveness, relying on minor self-harm to maintain sobriety (or keep calm?), but the life of a fragmented doll is not rotten. The performance of the actors makes you fully believe that there is indeed such a precarious but still surviving state of life in the world, and that human beings are so riddled with holes and extremely strong.
8. The female protagonist's mother's desire for control is vivid, and it is wrapped in fancy clothes and polite conversation, as well as the rhythm of the pronunciation of the lines, which completely makes me buy Karma (although my English is already very bad)...completely understand The heroine retreats from her love and hate. But from a certain point of view, I think that as a writer who has suffered from mental torture, logically, the heroine will not have an epiphany (or an epiphany after being reminded) of what her mother did until this age. Of course, it's also possible that she kept avoiding, running away, never looking back (normal for people with unpleasant memories)...
9. The group portrait is quite wonderful. The scene where John and the heroine praised each other for being beautiful was an unexpected tearjerker.
10. The director loves flashbacks. It adds a sense of unexpected horror and the difficulty of connecting the plot. But it also avoided a lot of cruel cruelty. At first, I thought this method was anti-climax, but later I found out that it should be said that it is only anti-"traditional climax". In fact, there is an emotional climax at the end of each episode. The story is morbid, dark, difficult, and deranged, but also silently wrapped in courage and compassion...and love. Personally, I was deeply impressed by the pool of blood that was close to Qi Yan when the heroine patient committed suicide. And the heroine, in order to keep Emma from falling into the doom of reincarnation, did not hesitate to stand up and replace her... In a black hole, heartbroken, but desperate to do everything possible, you will be moved by a person who is full of scars, but can also feel guilty because of guilt. With kindness and so fearless.
11. After living in middle age, I have gradually realized that staring at human nature most of the time is staring at a black hole. How to prevent the consequences. It is no exaggeration to say that the so-called balance, for a sensitive mind, is more of a check and balance between various emotions, and absolute static stability never exists. To live is to constantly maintain and reluctantly move forward.
But watching such a cramped story, there is also a kind of rebellion that refuses to accept fate - those innocent but suffering souls must live stubbornly. Even if you are squeezed beyond recognition, don't give up the right to breathe easily. Without him, only the survival and rebirth in the ruins can truly fight against the malice that came to this world. Crimes may not be all punished, and darkness may always follow, but people need to understand and feel that there are still many existences in this world that silently contend against them and never yield, and it is not only those distinct voices that can be heard in the sky.
