- "Just the End of the World"
In the endless quarrel, there is ego, prejudice, and unique attention and love. The first feeling of watching this film is noise. The family is always arguing. On the one hand, it is self-consciously expressing inability to understand other people's feelings. Everyone is lonely, but there is also this constant connection
"Why does the family hurt people?" Because she is full of love, but everyone has different ways of expressing love. We don't fully understand each other, so it is inevitable that there will be hurt. Long-term company, happy memories, and habitual life are both good memories and sweet chains
After today's discussion, the biggest reversal is the role of the older brother. Behind his anxiety, mania, indifference, and poisonous tongue is the pressure of his eldest brother being a father, the care he doesn't know how to express, the pride and dignity that he will never let go, and the influence of his seemingly "more successful" younger brother. misunderstanding and neglect. Although this manic-depressive expression has its own problems, we have gradually discovered the warmth behind his roar
The director is very bold in the shaping of each character, and the oppression and real texture created by a large number of close-ups are dizzying and impressive. Regarding family, there are too many contradictions and entanglements. Dolan is also telling us in his unique way that family is both a grave and a harbor.
