The "room" opens the door twice

The meticulousness of the plot and actors is easy to bring you into the play. I thought most of the film would unfold in the small room where the two protagonists are imprisoned---this is why I was worried about watching this film at first: the long period of smallness The space will give the audience a serious sense of depression, so when Jack jumps out of the car, even though he is completely in the play and desperate for them to escape from the "room", he still feels that they will not escape successfully. The reason is very simple - the film only reflects less than half . In fact, this is where the director and the film are very successful and enduring. The mother and son escaped from the space where they were imprisoned. This was the first time the "room" opened the door, and this time the object of their resistance was something real - old Nick or violence.
When the protagonists return to society and their families, the public, media attention, the separation between family and the most important thing is the psychological barriers caused by their long-term separation from society, which together form another isolated room for the two protagonists. The second room required the protagonist to act very differently from the first room, and they did. This is even more the director's excellence, giving the audience a vast space to remove the oppression and then skillfully form another room. In this room, what the protagonist has to overcome is not the real thing but his own psychology. When finally Jack took his mother back to the first room and bravely faced the place where they had been imprisoned for a long time, the second room The door has been opened.
Regarding the soundtrack, I think this film is the one that moved me the most among all the films in 2015. The 95 minutes and 30 seconds of the soundtrack and the plot can touch the soul.
It's also the first time I've seen this movie that I don't think Plum deserves the Golden Man. If Jacob Tremblay is nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor, it is estimated that Plum will continue to rub shoulders with the Golden Man. doubt.
