"beginner"

It seems to be well-made, contains some gimmicks and heavy, but is actually very casual.

It can be seen that a lot of it comes from the director's own sense of life and the people around him. It may be a line in memory when a person wakes up from a nap in the afternoon, it may be something that he and his friends will do on the way home after being drunk, or it may be the desire to talk to a certain still life when a person is alone... all mixed in clashes between the characters in the film.

When the frequent switching and insertion will appear a little at a loss, but holding a peaceful mood, in fact, this sense of fragmentation is most of the charm of the film. Each branch segment is filled with the light of wisdom.

Of course the seemingly non-actual performances of Ewan McGregor, Melanie Laurent, Christopher Plummer are also important points in lowering the perception threshold of the film, especially Ewan, if not this favorite The British come to play the American, maybe I will be much harsher on the film, and sometimes the star value is here.

Beginners quotes

  • Oliver: And what about the chair? Is it gay?

    Hal: The chair is not gay, obviously.

  • Oliver: We didn't know how we learned the stories in our heads, but sometimes they stopped running, and I can really see Anna's eyes in 2003. Her ears. Her feet. This is what it looks like when she says, 'I love you,' in 2003. This is what it looks like when she cries. When she tells me there's always a new empty room waiting for her. They used to make her feel free. Now they make her feel the opposite of free.
