There is no witchcraft at all, we should believe in science

I have always suspected that Martin had some magic and magic that made the male protagonist's family get into trouble. When I saw the faint smile on the corner of the eldest daughter's mouth at the end, I finally understood that it was actually a performance jointly created by the eldest daughter and Martin.

The male protagonist has been taking care of Martin for so long, and nothing has happened. If Martin could use magic, shouldn't he have used it long ago? It didn't happen until Martin was a guest at the man's house and got on well with the eldest daughter.

In fact, I suspect that the eldest daughter is all right. There are three proofs: First, she chewed the food before she said she couldn’t swallow it, while the younger son couldn’t even take a bite; second, she went to the window in the hospital and then became paralyzed again. ; The third is that she will be fine immediately after the death of the youngest son.

Why am I confirming that Martin has no witchcraft at all? The main thing is that my mother was fine until the end of the film, because she would never eat the inexplicable things that Martin or her daughter gave her.

There are two reasons why the eldest daughter cooperated with Martin to kill her mother and younger brother: first, because the mother prefers the younger son, which makes the eldest daughter very jealous. Many details in the film show this, such as the family eating at the beginning of the film, and the elder daughter. Both the daughter and the younger son were bent over to eat. The mother only taught the younger son to sit up straight. Then the father said that the younger son wanted to cut his hair, but the mother said that the younger son's hair was beautiful. Mom was a little embarrassed and said that your hair is also beautiful, our whole family has beautiful hair... And at the reception, when people asked how the children were, my mother just said that she wanted to buy a piano for her little son, and she didn't mention the age at all. Daughter, the father interrupted the mother to say that her daughter was menstruating... Later, the daughter talked to the son, and the younger son said that his mother bought him a piano, but he kept it from his sister. My sister immediately said that when you die, can I give you the MP3... Second, the eldest daughter and Martin are getting along, which is obvious.

So, to understand this movie from beginning to end, it is like this: The male protagonist performed an operation on Martin's father after drinking, resulting in the death of the patient. Only the male protagonist and the anesthesiologist knew about this. On the surface, the anesthesiologist was a good friend with the male lead, but actually had an improper relationship with the male lead's wife, so he told Martin the actual situation. Out of guilt, the male protagonist approached Martin and even invited Martin to be a guest at home. Then Martin and the eldest daughter got on well, and the two of them planned and implemented the whole thing. The poison was probably given by the anesthesiologist, because such a poison that numbs the feet, can't eat, tears in the eyes, and is difficult to detect, is not something a 16-year-old student can get casually. The anesthesiologist thought Martin was looking for it. The male protagonist seeks revenge, and he has the ability and motive to provide poison. It may be that the amount of poison is small (the amount for one person), or that the younger son is young and easy to deceive. Anyway, they only poisoned the younger son. The youngest son was poisoned, and Martin gave the male protagonist psychological hints. The eldest daughter then pretended to be poisoned to verify Martin's statement. Her mother was not poisoned, she was fine all the time. She went to investigate and helped the anesthesiologist to jerk off. From him, she learned about the male protagonist's surgical accident, and from Martin that the male protagonist "taunted" Martin's mother. I believe that only one of three can save people. The mother was afraid of being killed, so she came back to pressure and seduce the male protagonist, and wanted to attack the child. The male protagonist wanted to use medical treatment since his youngest son was poisoned, but Martin and his wife always interfered with his thinking, and finally chose superstitious methods. The daughter knew that the man had murdered and wanted to escape, but was caught, so she had no choice but to say some righteous and dignified words to please her father. At the last moment, my mother still wanted to seduce the hero by wearing the dress that the hero likes. They didn't expect the male protagonist to tie everyone up, seal his mouth, and shoot randomly. Of course, in the end, the younger son was shot, the mother's purpose was achieved, the eldest daughter's purpose was also achieved, and Martin's purpose was also achieved...

As a doctor and a scientific worker, his tragedy can be largely avoided However, he was deceived by his daughter, pressured by his wife, believed in superstitious things, and finally had to kill his son by himself, which is really embarrassing. If you are sick, you need to take medicine for surgery. Even a doctor can't believe this. It is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes. So there is no witchcraft in the world at all, we should believe in science.

    The excellent work, which can be said to be my current favorite Lanthimos, still maintains a strong author style, but weakens the satirical innuendo of the previous works, and the pattern is more open. The atmosphere of the film is first-class, the language of the lens is very brilliant, the classical core is highly interpretable, and there is a strong sense of unfinishedness.

    Lance Moss’s new work continues its strong author style. The closed world and character creation mechanically follow absurd and artificial rules, but it supports the moral logic of crime and punishment tragedy. Most of the wide-angle shots are The role of the character under the ceiling and wall, the closed and oppressive composition combined with its unique narrative style all imply that the film is a tragic fable with a classical structure that is only about crime and punishment, not good and evil.
