The Chinese name "The Cry of the Kennel" is a new work by Italian director Matteo Garrone in 2018. Ever since I watched "Guide Dog Q" and "Hachiko", and because I have a German Shepherd at home, I have been curious about all the movies about dogs. At the beginning of the film, the camera was aimed at a ferocious French bulldog. Under the instruction of the dog groomer Macello, the dog's mouth trembled with the wind when he was blowing hair. It was so cute [Grin] The divorced Macello and his daughter together Give the dog a bath, the scene is warm and touching. Then the director used a long shot to explain the environment in which the story took place, a poor and dilapidated seaside town. The appearance of the villain Simon broke the peaceful appearance of the years. He asked Macello for cocaine and owed money. The honest and cowardly Macello did not dare to disobey, and was dragged into the water by Simon step by step to participate in the theft. When he heard that Thief had put the barking Chihuahua in the freezer, he immediately took the risk of climbing the water pipe back to rescue the puppy, which was very touching! But the good man macello did not escape Simon's oppression. In order to take into account the feelings of his daughter and neighbors, he has been swallowing his breath. As a result, the villain was so stubborn that Macello even got him a year in prison. . . In the end, Macello, who was unwilling to bear the oppression, deceived Simon into the dog cage and strangled him to death. . . The cool colors and the dilapidated style of painting are all my favorites. It's just that the ending is a bit slow. I wonder how the skinny macello brought his boxer Simon, who is twice his height and weight, onto the stage? As the opposite, Simon's character portrayal is too thin and more facial; the police handling the case seems impossible Letter, the Italian judicial system is so rough and sloppy? The cultural and institutional factors that wicked people are rampant are insufficiently presented, and it is still the black and white thinking of good people and bad people, which is generally superficial and mediocre.
