If I had watched this film a month earlier, probably the adult psychiatry course paper wouldn't have written about Ezra's role as the bear child who drives his mother crazy (We Need to Talk About Kevin, Antisocial Personality Disorder). Stuart is a good case, I'm tentatively thinking he has borderline personality disorder and substance use disorder. He should have no antisocial personality - the word sociopath is too widely used on TV, in fact, many people who call themselves sociopath do not meet the symptoms of this disorder, such as the new version of the BBC Sherlock. He drank alcohol, was sexually abused in childhood, was unable to maintain long-term good relationships as an adult (except with Alexander), acted impulsively, frequently had suicidal thoughts and actions, and cut himself, consistent with Borderline symptoms. He has some delusions, thinking that he is possessed by the devil and wants to burn the devil out with fire, but he cannot know the extent and duration of the delusion from the movie, so the diagnosis of paranoia is doubtful. With regard to antisocial personality, its biggest symptoms are habitual lying, cheating, controlling others, not caring about the safety and emotions of others, and so on. So Sherlock and Stuart aren't really sociopaths - real sociopaths don't make people feel warm. In short, my thoughts are as follows: 1. Was the film deliberately not graded? In this way, the tone of the documentary makes people feel more real, as if in the next second BC and TH will speak to the camera in a very friendly tone just like in the behind-the-scenes interview. Whether it's the green countryside grass or the warm indoor scene, it all feels very realistic. 2. TH's acting skills are praised and praised. The clothes, steps, demeanor, and tone of voice all looked natural, reminding me of my internship experience during my senior year. At that time, my teacher placed me in a home for all-male WI State mentally ill patients. They had varying degrees of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, substance abuse, etc., and everyone had to take psychotropic drugs. I go ten hours a week, talk to them, eat with them, help them with their life needs, go shopping with them, and finally interview and videotape a patient. TH can completely blend in between them... The sloppy feeling of the clothes is the first intuitive factor. The tone of voice is very similar if not imitating muscle atrophy patients. Smoking cigarettes as a life-saving straw feels very similar to that of the patients at that time. Many patients are addicted to smoking because the drug affects the reward circuits in the brain. The stimuli that make ordinary people feel happy will not have a corresponding response in their brains, so they need to stimulate themselves with drugs. TH is really working hard for this role... (especially the full nudity scene) 3. The soundtrack is cute, reminiscent of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. 4. The photography is quite satisfactory, the lens language is effective, and it is not very colorful. There is a panoramic shot of a BC that is about 1.8 meters high and the Hobbit. The head-to-body ratio can be 1:6. . . 5. BC's curly hair looks so soft and I want to rub it. 6. Stuart cooks for Alexander and his friends. Although it looks dark, it is an expression of intimacy. Probably Alexander was the only one who was willing to accept him, listen to him, and accompany him for a long time, and said that he could call him 24 hours a day, which is more kissable than relatives. 7. Controlling violence with violence is never the ultimate solution - this will be remembered when educating little friends in the future.
