After watching it silently, my wife asked me: How do you like this kind of film?

The director is very powerful, Steve McQueen, Steve McQueen, there are not many films, but each of them is a masterpiece that directly hits the hearts of "Shame", "12 Years a Slave", and this "Hunger".

Among them, the male protagonists of "Shame" and "Hunger" are Michael Fassbender (Michael Fassbender), the Magneto that we are all very familiar with - Fa Shark. In other words, if you are obsessed with Fa Shark, these two dramas are really not to be missed. Both of them are nude, one is a sex addict, and the other is a hunger striker. The visual impact is extremely strong, and Fa Shark is in the battle in person. , In "Hunger", he actually went on a hunger strike for 10 weeks. This is really taking his life to film a movie! Before, I only knew that Christian Bale in "The Machinist" had thinned himself into an inhuman appearance to play the insomniac, and there was also a French shark. Then one of them played Batman and the other played Magneto, and I have to say: Only a serious actor can play a heavyweight role!

The film itself is quite dull, involving the violent struggle for independence in Northern Ireland, and the audience is not destined to be very wide, but the photographer is very powerful, and won the Golden Camera Award at the 61st Cannes Film Festival. There is not much dialogue in the film. It is not silently dying, but silently erupting. This is the truth. It is a positive solution for history and a positive solution for the film.

My Vote = 7.8

Hunger quotes

  • Father Dominic Moran: I want to know whether your intent is just purely to commit suicide here.

    Bobby Sands: You want me to argue about the morality of what I'm about to do and whether it's really suicide or not? For one, you're calling it suicide. I call it murder. And that's just another wee difference between us two. We're both Catholic men, both Republicans. But while you were poaching salmon in beautiful Kilrea, we were being burnt out of our house in Rathcoole. Similar in many ways, Dom, but life and experiences focused our beliefs differently. You understand me?

  • Bobby Sands: I'm clear of the reasons Dom. I'm clear of all the repercussions. I will act and I will not stand by and do nothing.
