The most 'unforgettable' movies I've seen in Cannes

Built” I watched a psychopathic crime-killing film early in the morning, or it was a hard-boiled, violent, bloody, and morally challenged film based on real events. Personally, I don’t like this kind of film very much. Or a pervert as the protagonist, trying to find reasons for them to justify and beautify their image understanding. The film is 155 minutes long. Many times it is very torturous. I dare not watch some bloody scenes at all. The actor's performance is impeccable in terms of performance and narration, especially the male protagonist interprets a cold-blooded, tangled, self-splitting serial killer to the fullest. The lines are very strong and can handle large lines easily and the performance is layered. The way of storytelling is very creative. There are traditional feature film narrative techniques, documentary techniques, pictures listing historical facts, materials, videos, and even experimental films that are often seen in art exhibitions, but I still have to complain about the editing. Forcibly cut off some dialogues. The beginning was rather blunt. Some of the scenes were obviously set up to make people laugh. But as the plot progressed, I couldn't laugh anymore. It is the responsibility of the film itself, which has a great influence on the audience and will have a subtle influence on the audience. If you just want to shoot what you want, it is just extremely narcissistic and irresponsible. You never know what you shoot will give viewers. Take today's film as an example, there is the possibility of inciting crime. I still remember a scene where a little boy was sniped by a killer while running away. Half of people's hearts are so hard and cold, and such audiences are actually quite a few. There are a few scenes that I can't even watch. Some people even laugh out loud. Maybe it's because foreign audiences watch movies on a larger scale, so they have become accustomed to these, but carefully Think about it, if a person accepts this kind of video stimulation that challenges the limits of ethics and morality for a long time, will he really not be biased, and I believe that the content you shoot will in turn affect your preference for filming perverted thrillers? You can, but it's better to grasp the scale, otherwise you will have to pay a certain price. If you go astray, go insane, and so on, it's too late. If you even lose the most basic principles of being a person, I can't call this kind of person an artist. Just a sociopath PS: The Chinese translation of this film is called "This house was made by me" and it sounds really harmless...

    I opened this road, I planted this tree, and I made this house, leaving my life behind.

    The misogynist Maniac has once again proved to the world that he is synonymous with the new era of Nazism, and this time he paid tribute to himself. The first look is like a horror movie, but when you find yourself falling into the emotional trap set by the director, you can get a little fun and humorous pleasure when you take it out and watch it. The deconstruction and remodeling of art, religion and human nature are not worth mentioning in the face of madness, characters are reduced to symbols, and symbols create art, which are constantly overthrown and rebuilt, and they are destroyed again and again in doubt and affirmation, pleasure and pain, and As the director said, destruction makes art sublime. This house is made by me, and both heaven and hell start from it. People are just the materials for building this spiritual home. Light and darkness, separated by eternity, this film is the mirror that examines oneself. Making a movie is a prescription for drawing a cure. His narcissism is terminally ill, and I am happy to see it. I must be very ill too.

The House That Jack Built quotes

  • Jack: Verge?

    Verge: I'm here, Jack.

    [pause]

    Jack: I don't feel so good Verge. There's a sour taste in my mouth.

    Verge: You want me to show you the way to the next whisky bar?

  • Jack: I can tell you're lapping it up when I tell you about Mr. Sophistication: "So, Jack hears voices that order him to do this, or do that, Jack must be psychotic!". I loathe diagnoses you can just write down in letters.

    Verge: That's not fair. The letters are clear. They look after us, don't create boundaries between good and evil, and they carry religion.

    Jack: Religion has ruined human beings, because your God teaches people to deny the tiger in themselves. Turns us all into a throng of slaves, too shameful to acknowledge it.

    Verge: Oh Jack, you should have read the right letters in your life, but you didn't want to.
