Depression is a good shot

This movie is aimed at Elle Fanning, in fact my favorite scene is where Fanning appears. A search found that this film also won the Golden Lion Award in Venice. The Golden Lion Award in Venice is the most unreliable among the three major international film festivals. Sometimes the film selected is completely based on the hobby of the chairman of the jury. It is said that because the director is Quentin's ex-girlfriend, the award was awarded to this not-so-best movie.

It's about the miserable life of a Hollywood star somewhere, and the tone of this movie is misery. You can only watch when your mind is quiet.

Although he is a star, his life is to watch striptease, attend press conferences, accept awards, and sleep with a woman. Only the clip with his daughter Fanning has a bright spot.

It is said that the director likes Wong Kar-wai very much, and he can feel the influence of Wong Kar-wai when watching the movie, but he does not have the beauty of Wong Kar-wai's shooting.

Whether it is the use of the lens or the shaping of the characters, it is not straightforward. If you tell everything, you will lose your charm. You must learn to hide. There are skills to hide, so that people can unconsciously and actively explore. This will have an aftertaste and make people want to watch it a second time.

The choice of the male protagonist is not good enough. Looking at his appearance and behavior, he does not have the charm of the big star set by the role. Elle Fanning is good, but fortunately it is the only dynamic character in the film, which makes this stagnant water less quiet.

    Hypocritical, loose, tasteless and tasteless.

    It's a bit like "Lost in Translation", but the filming is too bland, like a cup of boiled water~

Somewhere quotes

  • Johnny Marco: What's that book about again?

    Cleo: It's about this girl that's in love with this guy. But he's a vampire, and his whole family's vampires. So she can't really be with him.

    Johnny Marco: Why doesn't she become one too?

    Cleo: doesn't she become one too? Cleo: Because she can't. He doesn't want to turn her into a vampire. And if she gets too close to him, he won't be able to help himself.

    Johnny Marco: Oh, man.

  • Johnny Marco: Whoa! What the fuck, dude?

    Ron the Masseur: Oh. Did they not tell you how I work?

    Johnny Marco: No.

    Ron the Masseur: I have a website that explains my technique. I feel that if my client's naked, it's just more comfortable if I meet them at the same level.

    Johnny Marco: Yeah, it's - it's not for me. Thanks, though. Why don't you just pack it up.

    Ron the Masseur: Alright.

    Ron the Masseur: [after putting his clothes back on] S'sorry about that.

    Johnny Marco: Nah, it's cool.
