Friends who have had Alzheimer’s disease at home will definitely tear down the film, realistic and freehand, perfectly showing the charm of the film

I like The Father’s translation of "Father Trapped in Time" very much. From the beginning of looking for a watch as a foreshadowing and suggestion, the whole story does not even let the audience know the time clearly (a few days have passed), because in the world of the father, These seem to be confusing existences...During one of these days, daughter Annie has been wearing that blue dress, which also constantly hints that time in her father’s world has stopped (the unique service of Taoism, I like it very much), don’t look at it. In the end, the audience will hardly know the progress of time

The development of the story is not the process of objective time, but the process of the father’s world

Hospital chair
The chair and clothing implied that his father had been admitted to a nursing home at this time

The location of the story is also transformed with the father’s subjective wishes. It is not only a prison of time, but also a loss of space... The unique art design is that the design of the room is very similar. For example, the room in the final nursing home is also the same as the father’s own room. Similar pattern

The protagonist’s superb acting skills made me utterly impressed and crying. Anthony’s performance reminded me of my grandmother who suffered from Alzheimer’s disease. The mother who took care of her grandma...but the difference is that her love for her mother has not changed at all. She is just more like a child, forgetting many things and many people, with her own stubbornness and willfulness (this is also the most distressing Place)...Even though my memory has been completely confused, I often "That's right" as if I know it. It is distressing to pretend to be sober and calm.

At the end of a person's growth, it seems that he has returned to his mother's womb, back to his childhood...

Will question their identity
Will be like a child and miss her mother
Clear memory
Will be besieged by time

    It is the debut work adapted and directed by the author of the original stage play, so the dramatic style of scene changes, lines foreshadowing, and characters appearing is very strong. Hopkins' performance is too good, and I look forward to winning the best actor again. Coleman nominated for a lot of scenes Female supporting roles are very cheap and promising. From a subjective perspective, Alzheimer's disease is very similar to previous films like schizophrenia such as "Beautiful Mind", which guides the audience to understand the disease in which the memory of the characters is gradually confused and forgotten, from talking about her daughter to seeing her mother cry like a child. In the face of the despair that family love and life are about to disappear, the scenes of horror and suspense can also better understand the feeling of self-fear in that situation. It uses loud music and different hints of apartment layout details to distinguish between fantasy and reality. The objective and real side of the event that reshapes time even needs to be supplemented by brain. It is a pity that some logic may be sacrificed in order to satisfy the plot and confusion. For example, when encountering such a patient in common sense, first of all, you must repeatedly introduce yourself so that the other party knows who is and what is going on. sony dcp.
