At the beginning, the score for following this drama was 6.9, and it dropped to 6.5 in less than two weeks. I went to see it yesterday, and my peers said that the protagonist is full of "protagonist aura", but that's not the case in my opinion. If you have seen Jordan Peele's other works, you may have more in-depth thinking about this show. For example, one of his most famous works, "Get Out", Jordan seems to be keen to shoot black-themed movies, probably because he is black himself.

From the perspective of the development of the plot, it really takes a little brain to understand the movie. If you just enjoy the thriller plot, you will basically evaluate the film as a bad movie. There are many metaphorical parts in the film, such as the caged rabbit in the prelude and the rabbit running around in the basement at the end, the red little people holding hands and the "shadows" in the underground come to the ground to carry out hand in hand activities.

Personally, I think this movie not only reflects racial issues, but also class contradictions. People living underground symbolize the lower class, while people living on the ground are a higher class. They look bright, but they are actually vulnerable. , was easily solved by the shadows with a pair of scissors.

As for the heroine who has never had a dog leash, I think it is a foreshadowing left by the director. If you watch carefully, you should also be full of doubts about the heroine. How did she get back to the real world? Why didn't you say a word after returning? Why did you suddenly give up your beloved dance? Why the shadow could have killed her but never did it, so that the heroine had many chances to escape? The film later answers these questions all at once.

I think everyone can see different things in movies: class conflicts, racial issues, even human nature. But what you see depends on your heart, your brain, your experience, not your eyes.

    When Xiaohong said we are American, there was no way to watch the whole film without interpretation, but this time I held back and didn't buy Gambino's song. Cinematography has nothing to say, Pi Director has nothing to say

    It's so weird! The best movie of the year that makes people dizzy! The screenwriter and director are all ghosts! It's much more shocking than thinking after getout to watch the movie! I was shocked to speak incoherently! The dirty and dark underground is drinking blood, the light on the ground is warm and tidy and beautiful; the soulless co-models on the ground are also walking dead, the co-models on the ground laughing and cheering are equally warm and happy households; the underground can only move self-mutilation without compassion for humanity A human being with a body, free and unfettered, with a soul on the ground and under the wind and sunshine. After killing himself with a real soul, does he also become a walking dead without emotion and faith? It turned out that the underground gangster was bound and shrouded in the dark and bloody underground, it was the female protagonist who originally had the soul and faith on the earth. No wonder she is the only one who organizes language with that kind of voice that is extremely hoarse due to perennial drinking and drinking of hair! No wonder she is the only one who thinks about faith! No wonder she didn't kill the shadow heroine in the whole process! The body replaced her who was supposed to live in the light world. Explain that different environments and education will create different people!
