write in front
Looking back at the review of this movie in 2013, I was young and energetic at the time, and now I always feel that it is inappropriate to say that, but I still keep what I wrote before, and now I want to rewrite my opinion of it. idea for this film.

Comments from 2013~
Please don't compare this movie with Rose Red Lotus. At first, I watched this "Uninvited", and the ending is that her sister died long ago. The stepmother was Rose Red Lotus killed by Anna. The same is true for the movie, but the director brought forward the unsolicited ending and waited until the truth was seen. There are still dozens of minutes in the film. I want to say something to the director of Rose and Red Lotus. Since you have already told everyone the truth, then dozens of minutes later Are minutes a waste of time? From this point on, Rose and Red Lotus are not unsolicited. The editing of this film is excellent and why do you want to compare these two films? I can't think of a reason why one is a Korean film and the other is an American film. As far as the plot is concerned, although it is similar, the Korean version of the film is really procrastinated, while the American version of the film has a clean ending. Maybe it is determined by the director's style, but I really don't like that kind of procrastination.

This movie is classified as a horror movie. In fact, the plot is not scary, and the horror scenes are only taken quickly. Everyone knows the plot. Since she came out of the mental hospital, her sister has never appeared. She and All the conversations with sister are just her imagination! Don't you notice that her sister never spoke to her parents and neighbors once?
The overall tone of the film is like what the soybean oil reply to me said, similar to low saturation, (Morandi color?) or similar to a small fresh color. And the heroine's pitiful big eyes made the viewers even more pity for her, so how could it be possible to turn suspicious eyes to her?
Although there are not many movies about this kind of mental illness, but there are not many, and from this perspective (1. The injury caused by an accident is the same for myself and others! 2. Murder or conspiracy, etc., The audience will follow the plot, 3. The title, the end of the film echoes each other, 4. Some behaviors of playing the mother in the film are normal to ordinary people, but to mental patients, it seems like a conspiracy or threat , which is also the biggest attraction of this film 5. Dramatic tension, yes, this is also a few reasons why I like it!), and it can still be shot, there are really not many.
In fact, there is another interesting place, you look at the costumes in the actors' plays, which were very fashionable back then! Trying to learn the clothes and collocation of the characters in the play will be of great help to improve your taste!

Anna is pitiful, schizophrenic, and paranoid. It can be said that she is a poor child. But the stepmother is even more pitiful. Her monologue in the last scene completely touched me (I didn't care about it at first, but if you watch this film for a second time, you will definitely pay attention)!
"Anna, I've never had children myself, I can't, did I tell you? I've fantasized about what it would be like to have a daughter countless times." There was a pause, "but now, you've disillusioned me. ", this may be the cruelest moment for a mother.
