I find it's impossi...*WARNING* Spoilers ahead!<br /><br />I find it's impossible for me to write my opinions about a film without spoiling it. So please stop reading this if you want no spoilers! :)<br /><br />---<br /><br />So, very much like what the book has delivered to you (anger and frustration, you said), my feelings while watching the film mainly are annoyance and fear. <br /><br />I think the director did a great job in bringing out what Eva feels inside and throwing those unpleasant feelings to us. From the very first scenes of the film, you see, you hear, you feel: people go crazy in a festival, rubbing against each other; noises of the crowd; the red hot color; the scene of crushed tomatoes; how she wakes up with a hangover; and so on. That is intense. It just keeps going on and on throughout the film with a lot of sudden or unpleasant sounds, hot color, the light (very great playing with the lighting in the film, IMO), intentionally displayed disordered-scenes, Eva's unstable state of mind, her unsteady moves, etc. All of that makes me feel like she is forever living in a dream. Nothing feels real. <br /><br />So, why fear? It's simply just the feeling when you know something bad, really bad is about to happen in the film, but you just keep wondering when it will happen and if it's gonna happen NOW. You picked a movie like this, of course you knew sooner or latter there would be somebody get killed in the movie. But, the fear I had while watching it is that if the killing was too severe for me to take (like, how painfully the victims had to die, or how many of them would be killed). Remember how you feel when Eve walked to the yard and you guess what she's about to see... I think that's pretty much the feeling.<br /><br />And yes, the ending is touching and surprising. Like, it could never be a more simple conversation than that; and Kevin gets understood (and accepted, I guess) for the first time, by his mother.<br /><br />Just one more thing I like is that this film "tastes" British. There's something different between British (or European films in general) and American films. I just feel the atmosphere in European films is "colder". They are more weird, rough and intense. Scenes are sharply cut. Ha, frankly speaking, that's just my personal feeling, which has nothing to do with criticizing. I don't even know how to explain it accurately. My apology for this.<br /><br />:)<br /><br />E.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
