"Maniac", also translated as "Fantasy", I think both translations are good, this show is really crazy and very imaginative.
After watching the play, I first deeply remember the director-Kerry Fukunaga, who won the Emmy Award for Best Director for "True Detective". This work fully reflects the director's whimsy and unique aesthetics. Because the story line and character behavior are too weird and absurd, and the second half is even more serious than an R-rated film. I believe some people can't watch it, but for someone like me who loves brain-hole weird works Appetite. Decided to make up all the director's works~
I think it's appropriate to use "willful" to describe this work. Each of the ten episodes ranges from 28 minutes to 45 minutes. The montages are so used that you can't understand them if you don't pay attention. "Dream Space", "Blade Runner", "Pulp Fiction", "The Lord of the Rings" shadow... Is it weird to see the names of these works lined up together [cover face]
Although the male protagonist Jonah Hill doesn't look good to me, his performance is really sad, and his state is also in line with the title of the film; the two Oscar-winning actresses made the show's performance particularly dazzling, and Sister Stone is said to have not received it for a long time The drama is over, the script selection is very insightful. Many critics of this drama think that the next Emmy will be a hit; Aunt Sally Field (Aunt May who played little Garfield in "The Amazing Spider-Man") is very skilled as soon as she appears. I was shocked. After careful research, I found that she was a two-time Oscar winner for Best Actress, disrespectful... The female doctor of the institute is played by Mizuno Sonoya, who is of mixed Japanese and British blood, and her performance is also very strange and delicious. There are a lot of Japanese cultural elements in this play, which should be inseparable from the fact that Director Fukunaga himself is a Japanese-Swedish half-blood.
However, this show also has some rhythm problems. The first two episodes look very boring, and the second half of the third episode continues to be high-energy, which belongs to the "you can win after the first three episodes" type. I don't know why I want to shoot like this, but it's really because the fragrance of wine is not afraid of the deep alleys. This can also be said to be one of the director's willful performances. In the early stage, many N people abandoned the drama [cover face]
A story with a very simple core theme, under the operation of magical imagination and mix-and-match style, can actually become such a magical drama. In fact, it reminds me of Zack Snyder's "Beautiful Girl", which really tells the story. There is no end to the skills of the story.
