Many people are raving about Emma's acting skills, but I think not everyone can analyze it in depth after all, so it is inevitable that some people will follow suit. And everyone who has seen it should be angry at this cloudy ending. Indeed, this kind of unfinished end is also rare. I can't get what the heroine wants to change or what her purpose is. Looking at this movie, the plot structure is indeed weak, as if the screenwriter wanted to focus on a lot of problems, but unfortunately it did not highlight the key points. First of all, social transparency will obviously bring about moral problems. Even if it is brainwashed, the setting of users in the film is too ideal, that is, a dystopia that is divorced from reality. When the director expresses contradictions, it is inevitable to present a superficial narrative technique to the audience. Secondly, the story frame contained in the one-and-a-half-hour movie is too grand, and the shaping of branch characters is slightly naive. For example, the change of Annie's character, although she explained that her work is very hard, but the sudden degeneration has turned too fast, I don't know why she rejects Mae, is it because of jealousy, dislike or simply work hard? Another example is Kalden , It is said that his setting is not to fall in love with Mae, but the film does not explain the intersection of the two very well; the last two people meet in the basement I don't know what the intention is. After reading it, I feel that tom hanks is just an auxiliary character, and deadlifting the protagonist is counterproductive. But it's worth recommending that the film does give me something to think about.
Personally, I like the director's shooting method, especially the scene of Mae rowing alone at night. But perhaps the direction of the director's content is not appropriate, and it is obvious that the director cannot control the in-depth philosophical themes and the coherence and shaping of the characters.
It can only be said that it has destroyed a subject with great room for development. But Emma's acting skills, in all fairness, are heart-wrenching. Mae is a person with great potential. To a certain extent, the advancement of the film is due to the change of her social style and her way of thinking. I think emma shows mae's confusion and doubts about the things around him and his own life in the rapid progress. Even in real life, we don't have all kinds of expressions all the time. We are silent, we think, and then we conform or rebel. In a state of "transparency", mae undergoes countless transitions between her gradually lost id and her perfect humanity in front of the camera. Some people say that Emma's acting is embarrassing, but I agree that this is just a kind of numbness for Mae to please everyone.
From this, it can be seen that a good screenwriter is very important in order to successfully turn a novel into a film.
