Those conflicts between husband and wife have everything, but nothing seems to be more accurate!

The script is very solid. As a dramatic film, the capture of the characters by photography has also made an outstanding contribution to the advancement of the drama. The overall rhythm is only when the wife is cheating and looking for her husband downstairs. I think there is a break (although behind Yuan is back, but I think it affects the overall smoothness of the movie). Burton’s performance is better than Taylor’s, almost supporting Taylor’s favorite performance mode (various close-ups and a very large performance space). Perhaps the biggest problem with Taylor’s performance is that it’s well performed, but it doesn’t seem to be extreme enough. It cannot reach a higher level of performance and is not realistic enough. Hollywood’s performance system actually greatly weakens the actors’ performance and understanding of the reality of the characters. It requires actors to have stronger strength and more complex mental outlook, but Taylor’s From a more demanding perspective, I think it is not enough to smooth out the limitations of the performance mode. I see her performance very clearly and clearly, but I am not moved. My spiritual level is very rational and reminds me that this performance is the appearance. Below, it is not enough to touch the soul of this character from a deeper level, which is quite a pity! The driving force of the lines to the actors’ performance is obvious. I think this is really a double-edged sword for dramatic performances. When you perform in the process of speaking the lines, it will distract the actors’ deep-level feelings to some extent, thus in In a direction of expression, it is very purposeful to express. Taylor’s performance and the performance of the other two supporting actors. Seriously, I think they are both very problematic. They are not real enough and do not have enough performance sharpness, but The function of the role is excellent for the movie, because three of the four actors are wrong, but one actor drags the other three roles! Burton’s performance, I think it’s nothing to fault from the overall characterization of the characters, and it’s rare that many of the lines in this movie are just right for him. I can see the true mental state of the characters from his performance. !

    Missing this beauty after Taylor's death

    In seeing the source of inspiration for the Killing and Revolutionary Road, Elisabeth contributed plastic surgery-like acting skills, and even after watching Cleopatra, she still didn't recognize Martha when she first saw her. Martha and George are like Cleopatra and Antony's married life, so unbearable, hate each other, hysterical, as if the male protagonist will pull out a gun at any time to end the pain, and at the end, he is as exhausted as the protagonist, and he doesn't want to do any more The second time I watched it, I didn't have the courage to watch it again.
