Mommy

After 19-year-old Xavier Dolan became famous since i kill my mother, she received rave reviews and shocked the international film industry. The 25-year-old mommy, in Cannes, is even more like the goodbye words of the master Godard, and the halo of genius is crowned. Continuing the topic of mother-child relationship, i kill my mother is only a discussion within a narrow scope, and more personal experiences and emotions of the director are put into it, while mommy extends the problem to the society, the relationship between mother and child is no longer blindly rebellious and Abusive, but also a teacher and a friend, the neighbor and teacher who encountered aphasia made the rebellious teenager seem to find hope to get back on track. The 1:1 frame was opened into two 16:9 sections, which was the hope injected by the director, but soon, after a montage, the picture changed back to 1:1. On a rainy day, the three of them were speechless in the car, and the green light came on. , The mother was thoughtful, the car was still parked at the street intersection in the rain, waiting for the juvenile, a government medical institution similar to the treatment of juvenile delinquents and mental illness. The mother was heartless and helpless, and the teenager was forced into a cold ward. In the last paragraph, the teenager left a message in the voicemail, as if reflecting on himself, but his body was tied, and the mother was not happy because of the son's departure. Instead, the departure of friends and the missing of her son made life a gloomy cloud. This is a double-defeat ending, there is no hope, and the boy's resistance in the cage in the end is just a moth to the flame. The society does not pay enough attention to problem teenagers, and Dolan made a silent cry, which is exactly the taste of the Cannes judges. But I don't like his excessive music splicing, coupled with slow motion, the change of depth of field, just like a mv.

    The film’s success came at the expense of the first four films that were not successful enough. I finally understand that Dolan's too much style is not wrong, but because of his age experience, only "the stupid bird flies first" can achieve such a perfect balance through continuous practice. Turn black instantly. I like the burst of mother's back to the camera most. At the end, Born to die really touched my point. (Please calm down if you ask for resources. How can there be a download at the Cannes World Premiere...)

    Mother's love is great

Mommy quotes

  • Steve Després: Maybe, one day, you won't love me anymore. It's true. It happens.

    Diane 'Die' Després: Me... I'll always be there for you. You're my priority.

  • Steve Després: I wanted to tell you... I just wanted to thank you for your patience. I know I'm rough. Like Grandma used to say when I was younger, that I was rough. Now I get it, why she said that. So I'm sorry. And when I think about the times when... When I think about how much maybe I hurt you... After, when I get my shit together... I'm so fucking sad because you deserve so much better than a fucking retard like me! So... What matters is... I'm thinking about you here, and I love you.
