The director said, this is a movie made for young people, hey, time is not forgiving...
I was fully mentally prepared, but I was still shocked by the last 30 minutes of serious episodes: corpse rape, bloodbath, cannibalism, my bottom line, how are you? But having said that, these women who usually don't even eat rice, because of jealousy, are able to eat an adult alive, and it's pretty hard. And so much blood seems to be eaten raw, hey, no wonder I have diarrhea, this is not retribution, it is not hygiene.
The colors and composition are really beautiful, very stylized, like touching a thick fashion magazine, refined to the point of nitpicking, but too hollow to make sense. At the same time, the two also participated in the narrative, the bright and dazzling white, the hidden filthy black, the provocative red, the ruthless blue, and the thick and ambiguous purple. These highly saturated colors stimulate and catalyze the desires in people's hearts. , unscrupulously, constantly expanding, until it bursts itself.
But other than that, the drama is really lackluster. Using an outsider to observe the chaos of an existing industry is very old-fashioned. But the biggest problem for me is that the heroine's persuasiveness is not enough. With Fanning's conditions, I really can't see her advantage over professional models. She doesn't have to put in any effort, she doesn't need to go on a diet, she doesn't need to exercise, she doesn't need to think, and she relies on Her "simple and unpretentious, different from those coquettish bitches outside", has been praised as "perfect" by industry leaders, and has attracted the envy of countless peers. This routine is very familiar, and it tastes a lot like the eight o'clock Mary Sue TV series: handsome men are blind, beautiful women are bad, and there is no end to the same stupid and poor girl.
Of course, it is more profound than the TV series. The Mary Sues in the Mary Sue TV series will never indulge in depravity, nor will they fall in love with their own perfection. These compliments will only be read through narration. The small town girl eventually fell in love with herself and fell into desire. She will no longer stand on a high mountain and look up at the moon, feel her own insignificance, and will no longer twist and look forward, not knowing where to put her hands. It's just that she lost her life before she had a chance to get used to people putting their hands in her body.
