When I watched Tracey Fragments, it was purely for the heroine. I watched Hard Candy before, and I was really stunned by this little girl. Likewise, in Tracey Fragments, she did not disappoint me.

Tracey is an airport, in a school He is often bullied by his classmates, walks with his head down every day, and there seems to be a shadow around him forever. The unsmiling, gloomy and eccentric boy Billy who will push her away after having sex with Tracey in the carriage is said to be Tracey's boyfriend. But I But I felt that it was just an illusion. It was too unreal, and the fragments were too incoherent. Just like my memories of a certain period, I knew that it was all that happened in the past, but it was fragmented and couldn’t be put together, so that I often doubt the truth of things.

Also, Tracey's parents, that brother Sonny who likes to pretend to be a dog, that strange psychiatrist who is more neurotic than patients. All through the camera, or Tracey's mouth, become a piece of her life Fragments.

The only person who appears more coherently is Lance. In the end, I still don't quite understand Lance's attitude and feelings towards Tracey. It's a bit unclear.

Those cut shots, those babbling breaks The monologues made people feel gloomy and hopeless. In fact, Tracey is not a bad girl. On the contrary, seeing her smoking and walking with her head down makes people feel so sad. She is so beautiful, yet so lonely. When I kept repeating Fuck You, I saw the screaming and struggling soul behind her beautiful and fragile exterior.

If one day, life is broken, then, can it be like Tracey?

The Tracey Fragments quotes

  • Tracey Berkowitz: He said it, like, a million trillion times. And he bought me presents. Like this necklace, you know? It's, like, made of titanium, and a million karats or something. It was really expensive.

    [looks down at her neck to see that there is no necklace; looks up, devastated]

    Tracey Berkowitz: It must have gotten lost.

    [looks down, then back up, suddenly angry]

    Tracey Berkowitz: Why would I lie? Huh? Why would I lie?

  • Tracey Berkowitz: I am so happy. I have an amazing life. Now I'm gonna scratch my eyes out.

    [suddenly angry]

    Tracey Berkowitz: What, you think I'm funny? I'm an emergency. It's not my fault, all right? It's not. My DNA is fucked, okay? You can ask Dr. Heker. She's my psychiatrist. I don't know, I heard her say the problem's, like, congential or something? I don't know, I think she was on the phone.

    [goes back to mock happy]

    Tracey Berkowitz: I'd also like to thank my parents. And God. And my boyfriend. Especially my boyfriend. When we were together everything was so friggin' clear that you could hear a glass tinging a fork in Mozambique. Now my head could explode, and I wouldn't even notice.
