I actually watched and fell asleep, which surprised the Irish because they both cried, like so many others in the cinema. When the lights came on, only the sound of nose blowing could be heard, and everyone was suppressed to death.
While waiting for Louise to touch up my makeup, I chatted with Francesca about the movie. She deduced from me falling asleep halfway through that I definitely didn't like the movie. After chatting and chatting, I realized that this is the story of clones! It's like being hit in the head! It must be that I didn't understand the first few subtitles of the film that UGC also translated into French when it was introduced! Everything is explained, the parts that I find puzzled!
Omg! The Irish people finally helped me, a film student, to find the steps: it was the language problem that made me miss the fact that they were clones that were exposed earlier in the film. It may be so. Moreover, I think I was deceived probably because the big background of the story happened in the past, rather than in the future, like a normal clone story. This is an incredibly clever story setting for me! After I came back to check the information, I found out that this was a novel adapted from a Japanese novelist. ——In short, after realizing it, I think this film is really genius, all the elements that make me feel awkward have become well-intentioned, and even supernatural! I said casually, if I were the director, I probably would have brought out the burden of clones at the end, and then everyone would have the feeling that I suddenly realized. Francesca said this: this is what you want.
After I listened to it, I immediately discovered my own problem: I always wanted to shake my baggage and play tricks, but I didn't put my effort into carving out feelings. This film shakes out the burden early, and carefully sculpts the feelings, which also makes the audience cry. This is real work. Also, if this movie were made like I said, most of the audience would probably fall asleep halfway through like me!
