Start with the one furthest away, then get closer, get closer, 'bang' And I thought, if I could hold back from crying until the last one was closed, then I wouldn't cry anymore, so I really didn't cry anymore. The film is revealing redemption, justice, and The impact of childhood experiences on people is very ingenious and aggressive. There are many places where the film shines, such as the parallel processing of the past and the present, which makes the suspense slowly unfold and makes the film appear compact But it is fascinating. Garfield's performance is also very successful. He has a good understanding of the role, and he has a good grasp of the scale of fear and fantasy. From his confused or frightened eyes, the audience deeply understands The desperation and helplessness of this young man. This British film is very shocking, it explores a very serious topic. In many scenes, the protagonist is placed against a huge gray or yellow background, as if in isolation In addition, it is very depressing. The tone of the film is heavy and solemn, and it also calls on the public to pay attention to the physical and mental growth of young people from the side.
