The first hour was not for outsiders to see, the redemption of a past hero actor, or a Hollywood actor trying to tear off the label attached to it by the American film model. In fact, it is also a mid-life crisis of a middle-aged uncle. One shot is a gimmick after all. In order to reduce editing points as much as possible, a lot of handheld photography is used, which makes the audience feel very bad. In the last hour, the rhythm is strong. American movies cannot escape the pattern of typical Hollywood scripts. After a big plot point appears, it must be a return to solve the problem, and this film is no exception.

Winning the Oscar, in addition to the one-shot gimmick, is also a reflection of this film on the drawbacks of the American film factory system and producer system, which is precisely what Oscar likes most. It is undeniable that the conception and preaching of this film are very suitable for the film and television industry, and China's little fresh meat should watch this film. Although the first shot is a gimmick, it has to be said that the scheduling ability of the communication team and the director is excellent, otherwise this kind of movie cannot be made. The last point, for Sister Stone, it's so beautiful hahaha.

Personal humble opinion, don't spray if you don't like it.

    Although Inarido after "The bitch" is basically exhausted, it is not acceptable to be able to use Lubezki's photography to be so vulgar and boring, and Caron must be laughing crazy.
