I can't remember the first time I watched Cohen's film, but my favorite was "Murder of Green Toes". I like to watch the characters in those dramas plan one after another, clever but mistaken by cleverness, as well as the details of the wild.
The biggest difference between this film and the past is that the protagonist no longer has a plan. At least he subjectively does not have what I want to do, and things will be how things will be. He is basically a desperate folk singer. Black humour is almost extinct, I'm not happy after watching the film, and there's not a single detail that makes me laugh out loud. Besides, Cohen's wife didn't come out~
I used to like Cohen and always liked his unexpected plot arrangement. Forgot to read where: A great director only makes one movie in his life. Cohen's films are almost carved out of a mold: little people, making plans, and not doing what one wants. It seems that he is talking about the impermanence of life, but he still gives people a sense of playfulness, a kind of light weight, a helpless but detached perspective of God.
This movie gives me more feeling of depression, a real compulsion from life, a real embarrassment that life has crushed you to pieces and you have nowhere to escape. Oh my gosh, this is too bad! I don't like this tone. It's hard to watch a movie, why do you still let me watch life!
The theme of this one is the same as "Three Kings of Prison Escape", it is music that I am not familiar with and not very interested in, so the sense of distance is even more.
Maybe Cohen is really getting old, too, and who can't be old? I don't like this fact and have to accept it.
My favorite in the film is the cat, and I don't know or plan to explore what it symbolizes. With just such a bright color, it was also left on the side of the unknown road on the expressway.
This is a sad movie for me!
