Gothic warmth

I have seen a series of photography exhibitions about Goth's wedding. Whether it is the makeup and expressions of the characters or the selection of the background, the harmony of the tones gives me an ethereal and real feeling. To be honest, I was attracted at first sight, but staring at the characters in the picture for a long time unconsciously gave birth to a sense of coolness. When you are staring into the abyss, the abyss is also staring into you. This is my evaluation of these works, because as far as the theme is concerned, the wedding is supposed to be dreamy and happy, but when only the bride appears at the wedding, the gothic expression method unconsciously reminds people of ghost marriage. Graves and other obscure words. Let's go back to this film, breaking the routine with a subversive performance. In fact, there are not many expressions (for now), but whether it is the children's outrageous ideas and practices or the different love and happiness of the Adams couple , or sincere servants and "Ruyi", such a negative and positive combination makes people appreciate the loveliness of this family through the narrative of the film. Gothic warmth is seen through darkness.

The Addams Family quotes

  • [performing abridged "Hamlet" in school play; sword fighting]

    Wednesday: How all occasions do inform against me and spur my dull revenge. O, from this time forth, my thoughts be bloody or nothing worth. If I must strike you dead, I will.

    Pugsley: [slashes Wednesday's left wrist; blood sprays out] A hit! A very palpable hit!

    [Wednesday cuts of Pugsley's arm, Pugsley slashes her throat; there is lots of blood spraying everywhere, getting the front rows]

    Wednesday: O, Proud Death. What feast is toward in thine eternal cell?

    [drops both swords and falls to her knees]

    Wednesday: Sweet Oblivion, open your arms!

    [choking and gasping for breath, collapses, and dies]

    Wednesday: [the audience sits aghast in stunned silence, covered with blood while the Addams give a standing ovation]

    Gomez: Bravo!

    Morticia: Bravo!

    Gomez: Bravo! Bravo!

  • Gomez: [sees Flora and Fauna] I'm blinded by such beauty.
