The whole film is about creating a sense of humor in a black comedy, but it's nothing more than that. The title may not match the content at all. I was talking nonsense after drinking, and I had eyes that I couldn’t open. I really didn’t know what to write and what to express. I wrote down what I thought. maybe next time. From the plot, scene setting, character dressing, to the background music, they are all trying to make a quick success in rendering a sense of black humor. I may have said too much, but the real problem is that I may have too high expectations for this work before watching it. . Or maybe just after drinking some wine, the whole person started to criticize by the strength of the wine. The last possibility is that this is a good work, but I don't like it because it is so well done, because the subject matter itself is not what I like. Most of this old-fashioned fantasy movie has a third person telling the story at the beginning and the end. The beginning is unreasonable, and the ending of the happy ending~~ Short and long process. Therefore, shot editing is one of the elements of the success of the film, and this one is no exception. Although the film is classified as a drama, it is by no means within the category of light comedy. It is absolutely impossible for people to watch it without thinking at all. Wonderful enough to make people laugh... On the contrary, many ideas are frozen in one picture after another, and they are expressed in endless levels. It can be used as an example. Matilda secretly "fixed" Miss Trunchbull at Miss Trunchbull's house. The editing of the shots and the rendering of the emotional atmosphere are a bit Hitchcock-like, but they are always from a child. From the perspective, it does not make people think that they are watching HorrorMovie... The film wants to express from his screenwriter, the dialogue of the characters is very clear. Daddy says "what do u wanna a book for?" Matilda is like "to read", and her daddy is like "why would you want to read when you got TV set sitting right in front of you?" Many social problems are exaggerated in the film, but this is what they want to express---with technology revolution appear, people life styles have been changed, and yet still not end; more important, bad always will be criticized by the good~ Finally, let's talk about the plot. From the beginning to the end, the division of the plot is very appropriate, not procrastination, and every point is very accurately expressed. I just want to say that the editing in the later stage is in place. But if all of them are put together, it will make people feel "aesthetic fatigue". I feel more and more boring after seeing it. Maybe the subject matter is no longer so novel today, and the director's black comedy, I want to catch it. The point of live expression is too much, but it can appear weak. A good movie overall, 1996, definitely a good movie back then! still a good movie today, but not that much attention. It became history.
