Salvation

I heard about this film during the winter vacation, and I couldn't find it before it was filmed. I finally downloaded it only recently. I thought it would be a film that relies on some lenses to attract eyeballs, but after watching it, I have to admit that this is a wrong idea of ​​mine. It is true that the film is full of shots that make it an R-class, but in the end it was too warm.

In fact, there is a girl close to me who is very similar to the heroine. Because of some bad nightmarish experiences, she was as lost as the heroine. She tortured herself and wanted to do something for her, but she couldn't do anything. So when I watched this movie, I kept praying for the heroine in my heart, hoping that she could get out of the nightmares that tormented her and wash her soul.

The film tells the story of a girl suffering from an acquired nympho and a kind-hearted old black man redeeming each other. I don't want to describe the plot. If you want to know, you can search for the plot. The heroine acted very well, I saw the confused and struggling eyes, and I could hear the crazy soul crying for help. Also outstanding is the soundtrack. The BLUES music sung by the old black man in the film can indeed pass through the body and reach the heart.

My favorite scene in the film is that the girl plays the guitar and gently sings her inner melody. The lyrics are simple, and the melody is bright and moving. It seems to see Hepburn, who plays and sings "Moon River" in "Breakfast at Tiffany", the sun shines, golden and beautiful. In this movie, there is no fresh smile like Hepburn, only RAE's red and swollen eyes, men's blue cloth shirt, dirty blond hair, people who can't play the guitar but only hum with the strings. I am very happy that she finally gained the courage to be reborn. Although she can't get out of the shadows, she has learned how to control and believes that a girl who is lost can also be belonged. I hope that friend of mine can watch this film and redeem myself. I feel so sorry for her.

NOBODY CAN HELP US EXCEPT OURSELVES.

    a movie 'bout blues with some conservatism and asceticism

    The story of a devout Christian's self-relief and redemption of a sex addict and a noise-phobic man. The director rubs together faith, blues, sex, demons, etc., but the performance is mediocre, and it seems a bit contrived in expressing the theme, except for Samuel The part of playing and singing BLACK SNAKE MOAN and the part of the missionary's brainwashing is still wonderful, and the other parts have no appeal.

    Rae: No. That's not why...

    [pause]

    Rae: Why we always gotta do this? I mean, you and me been at each other as far back as I can remember. Wasn't no love between us. And I'm your daughter. I'm the only family you got.

    Sandy: [stops working and turns to Rae] The hell are you talkin' about?

    Rae: Now see? Don't do that. I'll go along with all you say about me. But that, you can't pretend no more on that 'cause I was just a kid, Momma.

    [pause]

    Rae: I didn't know about any of that stuff he was doing to me, and you let him do it. Some big nobody in your life and you let him do as he wanted with the only somebody you had!

    Rae: But Momma, just tell me! I'm not gonna be mad. We can just talk about it! Be eye to eye on this. You don't even gotta say you're sorry, just say how you knew!

    Sandy: Only thing I'm sorry for is listening to my parents and having you...
