The truth of taking off the armor

How should I put it, the slow and icy aura of the deer and the woods at the beginning really scared me to death, and of course the progress of the latter two. I suspect that there are too many fast food movies I usually watch, so I can't bear the temper to enjoy the slow-moving movies. The story takes place in a slaughterhouse, which is nothing, it's just a little bit more novel than other movies. But what I didn't expect was that, under the slow tone of the movie, the process of slaughtering the cow was directly put on the screen. After the worker anesthetized the cow, he immediately cut off the head of the cow, and the cow fluttered subconsciously twice, but The movements of the workers are very skilled, and the blood of the cows poured out like a waterfall, without the slightest emotion. Ah, I was almost suffocated, and I felt a sense of psychological discomfort, but the workers were used to it. They removed the legs, scraped off the skin, and left pieces of red meat hanging. After watching the process of slaughtering the cattle, I immediately I feel guilty about eating any meat. At the time I thought it was too real! Of course, the slaughterhouse is just a background, and the main storyline is slowly rolled out. The male protagonist is an elderly financial director, disabled and lonely. The heroine is even more outrageous. I feel like a ghost, with few words, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and social fear. But before I saw it, I knew it was a lonely movie, and I felt a strong sense of substitution. I felt like I saw a part of myself in my life. The male protagonist eats alone, wakes up helplessly, changes the TV channel anxiously, the female protagonist can't bear the breadcrumbs, insists on following the rules, everything in the house is in order, and speaks to herself , These sporadic moments all exude a lonely atmosphere and a strong sense of substitution. I began to feel that this is probably the life of a person like me. The story of the two people is mainly due to the same bed and the same dream, which gives life to the whole film. Since they met in the same dream, such a wonderful experience made the two people in reality start to walk towards each other awkwardly, but neither of them dared to let go of their defenses easily. Only by sharing the happiness in the dream again and again and the smile of the other side gradually allowed the fog between the two to slowly disperse. But both of them have shut themselves down for so long that every step is so bumpy, and every attempt requires a great deal of courage to make progress.

The performance of the two people in the middle can be said to be three-pointed. It seems that I am guilty of embarrassment. It can be said that there is not much communication between the two, but it is this silent performance that makes the movie more and more real. This is the fucking loneliness. ! I really want to experience the feeling of being loved and being loved that I almost forgot, trying to wake myself up. What I have to say is that during the climax, the heroine broke the glass directly and was about to cut her wrists in the bathtub. I thought this was too violent! But after a while, when she was patiently answering the male lead's phone call with a bloody hand hanging from her hand, I realized that this woman is not just like us, she is making great efforts to overcome her own psychological barriers and try. When I went to change, I was terrified by the head-on blow of reality. I was really moved by the part of the phone call. Behind the feelings, there are countless undercurrents and inner struggles.

"Good evening, are you there?"

"Well, I'm here."
