"Eighth Grade" viewing notes 1. How to save money: In the first segment of the film (at home), each scene only uses 2 shots (front and back), which are juxtaposed by simple cross-editing. Achieve the effect that the protagonist is looking at the computer 2. The missing lens is followed by the protagonist entering the campus. It is clear that the protagonist is the protagonist, but a lot of irrelevant characters are cut in. They are graffiti and clay figurines, and they also attend a physiological hygiene class. , I don’t know what this is doing (it took nearly 3 minutes on invalid content) 3. The invalid plot pushes the protagonist to remain passive. The mother of the current female invites the protagonist to the party, but the protagonist hesitates all the time. 4. Poor scene design and character relationship The protagonist does not speak at school. The formal contact is the conversation with his father at dinner, but the protagonist is extremely impatient. Instead, the father says a lot of hard work, but the problem is, These words are meaningless to the whole story. The protagonist does not seem to listen to these words at all. It is clearly a movie but it becomes an ordinary family vlog. 5. Can the director of bad interpretive clips put those ones less? Pile of meaningless shots and inexplicable music, did you shoot Douyin? 6. The protagonist’s actions The first thing she took the initiative to do was to go to the group and sing, but it had nothing to do with the plot; the second thing was to try to make friends with the current female and talk to the male god. When she was in contact with the outside world and put it into action, her state really took on a new look, even in the eyes of others, she can be said to be confident. Then I made my first friend when I visited the high school. 7. Meaningless conversation film The whole story can be said to be fragmented. Many fragments have a lot of dense dialogue, but they are always irrelevant to the plot. They become a lot of text. Garbage is tasteless to eat, but it is a pity to discard it. 8. Confusing relationship between characters After attending the party, the relationship between the characters became very chaotic. A group of people said a bunch of unknown things, and then the hostess got into the car of an unknown man, and then was sexually harassed by unknown people, and finally unknown. So it's self-defeating... 9. The solution. First of all, the main point of this film should be clearly expressed. Kaila and her unpleasant life, Kaila has already taken the first step. She is already working hard to reach the outside world. I think, It should be talked about the process of her gradual integration into a small group. She will definitely be frustrated in this process, and may be completely depressed, but she must take the initiative to do such things instead of simply being sexually harassed by an unknown man. She does not need to be sexually harassed. Become eye-catching, at least, have a social circle of your own, get out of inferiority complex, and face life positively. Secondly, the relationship between father and daughter should be gradually changing, rather than immutable as in the film. Perhaps this is the reality, but this is a story, a story we have conceived. It may be difficult for father and daughter to communicate harmoniously at first. , But Kayla should gradually learn to accept her father, instead of choosing to give up on herself, let her father use some very blunt words to persuade him, seeing that in the end, the gap between father and daughter is still very deep, the actual weight of that embrace is It is not so important in the eyes of the audience. Finally, please increase Geb's role to make his work in the play bigger. It is best to become a guide to change Kayla and let Kayla regain confidence and reconcile with his father.

    From the perspective of a 30-year-old weirdo in China, contemporary American junior high school youths are really annoying and annoying. The rise of social networks seems to make every girl a bitch, and every boy a... Freak? The biggest problem with the movie is that I can't understand what the director wants to express. The whole story revolves around the strange girl's efforts to integrate into the lives of the people around her, but at the end it falls on the routine of "weird people have their own geek love" - ​​more than one before that. Hours of mourning and embarrassment, what do you plan to do? In addition, the director's attempt to add strong rhythm sound effects at each emotional climax is too blunt, which is simply the level of domestic network comprehensives! Audiences who may have also experienced being isolated will see their eyes bright, but ordinary people like us who grew up in a normal way, watching this film really only has an embarrassing late-stage cancer attack!
