Influenced by Almodovar

It can be seen that the Chilean director was deeply influenced by the master Almodovar, regardless of the subject matter, whether it is the use of accidental death to elicit the storyline, or the eerie and eerie atmosphere under the calm narrative, and even the last string of keys. The designs are all branded with the distinctive Almodovar mark. In fact, the storyline is not too fresh. If the protagonist in the play is replaced by an ordinary woman, it will be a soap opera configuration on a bad street. Undoubtedly, the core character of transgender people has played an extremely important role in promoting the development of the plot, and the director uses this to reveal the different attitudes of society towards this group, with a certain reflection and criticism. However, the design of some plots is suspected of being too dramatic, which cannot hide the deliberately exaggerated gestures in the script. The heroine's performance is the biggest attraction. From the heartache of losing her lover, to her tenacity against the outside world, and finally to her calm relief, she wonderfully reveals the woman's delicate mind and character change.

    At first glance, it is the director of [Gloria]. Although the play is more refined this time, the appeal of the characters is far less than the previous one. Fortunately, the situation of this story construction is very good. The woman and the old man who died suddenly also have several bright spots at the end. They are generally rational and neat, and there are also many bright spots.

    No. 1 Oscar nomination for Best Foreign Language Film, another film about the dignity and rights of transgender people. The technique is neat, and the acting is excellent. This year, there are so many excellent films focusing on homosexual and transgender themes around the world. What kind of social thoughts are caused? These seem to be too far away from us to simply evaluate.
