This film is very decadent. Compared with "Life with a Glass of Wine", there is almost no hope. It is more "Manchester" than "Manchester by the Sea".
According to "Rescue the Cat", this type of "change ritual", in the end, the protagonist remains the same, which can be regarded as breaking the routine. "The Seaside" is like that. Will this model become a trend in the future? Is it really okay to let people see no hope? Once is fresh, twice, three times...it's boring. Movies are the art of making dreams, so let's give some hope to the audience.
"500 Miles" is really good. Suddenly I remembered the old song George Clooney listened to in "Gravity". I still haven't figured out the name. If you know it, please let me know!

    Reasons not to like this film: A ballad after another - it's a movie not MTV; Carey Mulligan's flamboyant acting. Reason for liking this film: The cat named "Ulysses". Personally, it is more than a star and a half worse than Searching for Sugar Man. 2.5 stars

    I thought that the movie would only cut out some of the arias and then mainly used performances, dialogues and backing to shape the protagonist of "Loser", but I didn't expect that the whole song was basically sung from the first song, so it's no wonder that it was criticized by many people. For a super-long MV that sang fourteen ballads; the Coen brothers' style is as unique as ever, except for the sharp irony of reality in the signature style, but still did not forget to give the audience a solid photographic lighting class.
