I have always loved Atom Egoyan's movies, and I have seen many of them. After last year's "Adoration Virtual Memory", "Chloe" has paid attention to it earlier this time. Even her mother said when she saw the Chinese translation: It should be good to watch! The influence of the series... There are not many sets, and I believe it will be finished soon. The

screenwriters are Erin Cressida Wilson and Anne Fontaine, the latter is the director and screenwriter of the movie "Coco Before Chanel". The

heroine is Julianne Moore (I wrote about her), which added more motivation to enter the show. Because she played some different roles every time, she also preconceived that this time she played Catherine will not be an ordinary woman.

Same as "Adoration" , this film was shot in Canada, this time it is Toronto, which many Hong Kong people are familiar with, and many downtown scenes. It is said that the film is a bit like Egoyan's early film "Exotica" (1994), which is the first time I saw him. Works, I feel the same way. Isn't Chloe played by Amanda Seyfried just like Christina played by Mia Kirshner?

***(Story reveal)

My sister and friends said that the story of the movie is a bit similar to the Finnish movie "Black Ice". Well, both It's a horror movie. Catherine, a gynecologist (oh, the heroine in Black Ice is also a gynecologist!!!) suspects that her husband (a university professor) is unfaithful to her, so she finds a beautiful and moving woman (also a prostitute). Name) to take care of her husband and see what kind of cheating her husband will do.

When you see this, you will think: Catherine, this woman is a bit abnormal. Saying she is stupid and good, abnormal and good, if you want to check her husband, use other methods. . The result, of course, was unexpected.

A bit echoing with the previous work "Adoration", the directors describe the impact of the Internet on our lives. The husband is at home facing the computer and the student msn, and the son is facing the computer and breaks up with his girlfriend in a video conversation. Catherine often uses Blackberry.

In terms of actors, All of the main characters are well-acted. Julianne Moore is still great, of course, only with a little more freckles. Liam Neeson, who plays her husband David, is also very good, and Amanda Seyfried (Chloe) has a few passionate scenes. Look, although I never thought he was handsome. Amanda Seyfried is hot and very competent. Max Thieriot who plays son Michael has a pair of talking eyes. The

only thing I don't like is one or two more old-fashioned shots: Catherine Shower / David and Chloe both have their palms against the glass during their "garden" affair. The

film is a little surprising that what the audience sees is not necessarily what is in the story.

No disappointing Ikoyan.

Chloe quotes

  • Chloe: I guess I've always been pretty good with words. In my line of business. It's as important to be able to describe what I'm doing as it is to do what I'm doing. When to say what. What words to select.

    Chloe: Some men hate to hear certain terms. They can't stand specific moves and then they can't live without others. It's part of my job to know where to place my hand, my lips, my tongue, my leg and even my thoughts.

    Chloe: What kind of pressure, for how long, when to stop. I can become your first kiss... or a torn out image from a Playboy magazine that you found when you were 9 years old.

    Chloe: Am I your secretary or am I your daughter? Maybe I'm your seventh grade math teacher you always hated. All I know is that if I do it just right, I can become your living, breathing, unflinching dream, and then I can actually disappear.

  • Catherine Stewart: How do you do this?

    Chloe: I try to find something to love in everybody. Even if it's a small thing. Something about the way someone smiles. There's always something. There has to be. I try to make myself generous. I do things I don't wanna do. I think about what not to criticise. And the strangest things come back to me.

    Catherine Stewart: Like?

    Chloe: You.
