A "coincidence theory" described by the narration at the beginning and end of the film summarizes the plot from beginning to end. In the vast sea of people, everyone joins the game of life, and they are content and happy. . In the city, under the ravages of desire, the elderly, youth, children, parents, lovers, children, seemingly complicated souls, finally return to the original loneliness. . This invisible force is an invisible gun that shoots every vulnerable soul. .
At the beginning of the film, a white and beautiful "Magnolia" blooms, and the brightness of each petal reveals a tangled human nature. . .
What impresses me deeply is the song "Wise Up", where every character I never knew, sang their loneliness, emptiness and fear at the same time in different spaces. . . .
A sudden toad rain brought out the fear and courage of every character, and that fear had to make everyone strong. The seemingly insignificant characters are connected because of this toad rain. . . . . .
The three-hour film is long, and there is no ups and downs in the plot. People who watch it are really boring, but if you think about it, this is probably the closest corner to our life. We were also lonely, empty, and afraid~~~ I insisted on finishing this boring. For three hours, the gentleness at the end really makes the audience think for a long time. .
The beginning of the day is repetition, and the adjustment of the rhythm is that you cover the loneliness, emptiness and fear that everyone is coincidental. . .
The film's lineup can be described as strong, and there are many Oscar-level actors, so the performance is pleasing to the eye. Hehe, I still like Julianne Moore, the queen of independent films, and her complex characters are reflected on the face. In addition, this is also a rare film in Tom's life.
This movie is a group movie. In recent years, group dramas have become common in Europe, America, and South America. Well-known ones are "Crash", "Little Miss Sunshine", "Love Is a Bitch", etc., and lesser known ones are "Leland's America", "Mammoth", "Floating Manhattan" and so on. . By recording what happened to a considerable number of characters at the same time and in different spaces to reflect the commonalities and opposites of these people, the idea of the film is often conveyed more delicately~~
Finally, let’s talk about the OST of the film, a rather slow female vocal solo, with The mix of characters is quite natural compared to the film. . . .
