      ["My son, what have you done"-mother's voice

      A film produced by David Lynch, the film tells about the "voice in the heart". This sound runs through the film from the beginning to the end. At the beginning, the train made a huge roaring noise: the sound of the train rubbing against the rails and the sound of the whistle shuttled through this relatively static lens. The empty shot is full of the speed and noise of the train. All this seems to be harmonious, the original empty scene: a train speeds out to divide the blue sky and the yellow...

      Some tracking about feeling

      David Lynch is the producer in this film, and this flashback and intricate expressions are obviously his. People who like Lynch must have this experience. If you don’t see the end and don’t understand what it means, the movie will first bring you feelings. First of all, you will feel something, but you can’t say it until the end of the movie. Understand the meaning of this film.

      In order to facilitate the narration, I will narrate according to the clues I have sorted out myself....

      Grandpa, what have you done?

      On the eighth day of black eye viewing, Herzog "What have you done, son". The film is said to be directed by Herzog, but it also has a strong shadow of the producer, David Lynch. It can basically be said to be a synthesis of Herzog’s crazy stubbornness and Lynch’s weird metaphor. . I watched the opening and said that this was adapted from the real incident of a son killing his mother. I don’t know if it is true or not. But the entry point is quite interesting. The whole film...

      Son, what the hell are you doing?

      My.Son.My.Son.What.Have.Ye.Done is

      just as miserable to read as stream of consciousness novels, this kind of stream of consciousness movies are often the most confusing to the audience after watching them, not to mention that they are still in the air. Even without English subtitles, I didn't know the plot at all before.

      This film is produced by David Lynch (David Lynch), written and directed by Werner Herozog (Herzog), starring Michael Shannon, so it can be said that the...

      "Son, what have you done"

      Sometimes it is really impossible to compare. Werner Herzog gave the answer to what is the really fascinating way of expression in "Black Swan" I watched before this film.

      Although David Lynch was named David Lynch at the beginning of the film, apart from many of the faces in his work, the film has at most some shadows of his early films, and he has not much to do with him today. Therefore, I personally feel that this film belongs to a German director.

      Herzog used the most...

      From the evaluation of this film, we can see the impetuousness and self-righteousness of film critics (especially American film critics). I also don't know what the time-free scenes in the performance express, but as soon as the cello from the vast blue distance plays, I know that I can't escape Zog's eyes gazing at the special...

      Lynch’s gloomy atmosphere + Herzog’s mysticism, linear narrative and flashback structure correspond to the physical confinement of the body and the infinite gallop of the soul; the trilogy of "Orestes" corresponds to the mother-killing in reality; the male protagonist Choosing Michael Shannon can be regarded as a kind of unique "nostalgia" for old friend Kinsky. Shannon's eyes and demeanor and even crazy body language look like crazy...

      For him, the mother is a queen born from the chain of tantalize curse, who uses self-mother love as an excuse to invade, bully, assimilate, assimilate and force her son to be the most violent queen who produces the death of the other's freedom. He projected the inner voice of God (voice of free will) on the nomadic ostrich in the desert (see Job 39:13), on the low-fat food that defied Mommy's nutrition, and on the lunar space-time tunnel. The mother was punished with a...

    Evaluation action

    "My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done" uses a variety of strange elements to win the resonance of fans, but surprises do occasionally appear in the film, but the overall effect for this crazy mother-wiping thriller Not big. In addition to explaining the main line of the film story, there are also a lot of weird and no necessary episodes. In fact, from time to time, the film gives people a sense of parodying David Lynch's film, and even a...
