Director, you better shoot your literary and artistic love films!

After watching "suspiria", what do you say? Compared with "hereditary", it is also a cult film, but this one is more of a visual conflict, such as: the distorted body when casting a spell, the naked body, the organ pulled out, the girl who discovered the witch's secret was sacrificed, the flash The scenes similar to the opening scene and the final reversal - the heroine is the real mother of sighs and then killed them all, so the impostor and her admirers, blood splattered the whole dance hall, the dark red tone gives People feel uneasy, but the story is scattered, there are too many things to express, which blurs the main point of the story (see "mother!"), and why the heroine is the mother of sighs is not clear. This movie is not popular, people like it, hate it and hate it, resulting in polarized word of mouth (the cost is more than 20 million, and the box office is only more than 2 million).

And "hereditary" did a good job in the details of the story, paving the way for the final male protagonist to become Paimon's body. Although there is no ghost or spirit body, the only scary thing is the sister who was hit by the telephone pole and saw himself off. The mother of the head, and all this is only to destroy the will of the male protagonist to help the completion of the sacrifice. Although it is not scary to some people, the story is well told and complete, and the details are handled properly, and the box office is rewarded in the end .

More expectation, more disappointment. The only comfort to me is Mia's evil spirit and Damei. This is not a horror movie, but a director's art movie. It is the visual conflict that makes up for the lack of the movie. The European retro style of this movie is a highlight. In general, it's really not easy for a director to change careers (the comparison with the original version is more stressful)

Next, please direct the filming of "call me by your name2"!

PS: The teacher-student relationship between Damei and Xiangu in the movie really makes me want to be biased...╭(°A°`)╮

    In the scene of the final ceremony, I thought I was watching "Darkness Invasion". The role of the old man was a bit awkward, and I couldn't understand the movement of some scenes. production design is ok

    Since the main content of the foothold and performance has been transferred to the newly added background and characters, why not change it to a psychiatrist as the leading story? ? ? ★★

Suspiria quotes

  • Dr. Josef Klemperer: [to Sara] Patricia wrote about "Three Mothers" lost to time, predating all Christian invention. Pre-God, pre-devil. Mother Tenebrarum, Mother Lachrymarum and Mother Suspiriorum. Darkness, tears, and sighs.

  • Susie Bannion: [When asked what dance feels like to her] It felt like what I think it must feel like to fuck.

    Madame Blanc: Do you mean fuck a man?

    Susie Bannion: No. I was thinking of an animal.
