Obviously suspected of fried cold rice

The most painful thing in life is to witness and experience the departure of a loved one with his own eyes. Nanni Moretti has restrained and emotionally demonstrated this theme in the 2000 Palme d’Or masterpiece "Son’s Room". This year's new work "My Mother" still uses a restrained approach to narrate the whole process of an elderly mother being tortured by disease to her death. However, the director has placed another plot for a female director to make a movie. The two parallel development lines do not see any complementarity or conflict. To put it bluntly, they only reflect the bitterness of being a film practitioner, such as a director, while taking into account the film set. On the other hand, he has to worry about his old mother on the sickbed day and night. I think it is perfectly possible to change the career of the heroine in the film to something else. The reason why Nanni Moretti chose to shoot the story of the career of director is easy to guess that it has something to do with his own experience. From this perspective, the film is inevitably branded as a "private film", which is simply Nanni Moretti's unchanging author style over the years. In fact, as early as 2007 in "Caiman", he had tried a technique similar to that in a play, and the film was handled more interestingly. This new work is obviously suspected. The only thing that satisfies me is the blending of dream and reality scenes, which is quite traditional in Italian cinema. Woody Allen, who is far away across the ocean, has also used this humorous style to construct his own works, like the classic "Anne Hall" ".

    In the last period of her mother’s death, the female director’s career was bottlenecked and her marriage broke down. The last part of getting along with her mother showed her her stubbornness and tenseness, as well as the warmth and softness of her mother. Emotional expression is tolerant and restrained, deep and sincere. The dilemma of a director that Almodovar showed in "Pain and Glory" directly derives from the director's own physical, emotional, and family conditions, and this film reflects the director's own problems from the career itself and his family. Different routes lead to the same goal. Life is not easy, try to be more restrained and gentle with yourself and others.
