Atmosphere is everything

The plot of MirrorMask can be said to be very simple, but the movie is not only used for narration, but temperament is also one of the important elements. The expression of the film is really amazing. It seems that he really takes you to a fantasy dream. In the middle, there are cats with human faces, schools of fish swimming in the air, books that can fly... The magnificent and strange pictures are dazzling!
This film is adapted from comics, and the director Dave McKean is a painter. It's no wonder that the film can form an illustration almost every time it freezes. The graffiti of the protagonist HELEN should also be from the director. The black and white pictures composed of lines are a bit gloomy and weird, but they are so gorgeous. I like this very much. It's a style that makes me want to lift my brush when I see these paintings.

In addition, I also like the soundtrack of this video, close to you and if i apologize are really nice~~~ Worth collecting!

    Black Queen: With a smile on your face everything will seem brighter because from now on we are... what?

    Helena: I don't know.

    Black Queen: Tell her.

    Black Queen's Guard: Uh, not at home to Mr. Grumpy, your majesty.

    Black Queen: Exactly.

  • Helena: [during opening credits, playing with sock puppets] Ha! You may think I'm a hardhearted black sock, but underneath this dark woolly exterior is a naked pink foot.
