Trash Princess
The movie was released in Cannes before it was finished. It was the first time I saw it. It was a thriller for two nights in a row... The film is also proficient in audiovisual techniques, and opens with a series of impenetrable close-ups, set to a dense drum-like soundtrack, which is exciting. Almost every actor except the little girl plays the corpse, which is simply brutal and bloody, and there is always melodious music playing on the scene. Joaquin was too fat to recognize. The story still doesn't appeal to me

1. A very audiovisual and emotionally immersive anti-genre film with one of the most beautiful and meaningful titles I've ever heard. 2. Techniques perfectly suited to self-fragmentation and psychological trauma: partial close-up montage (stunning opening or even lack of set shots), discontinuous editing and weird camera positions, separation of sound and painting, violent scenes left blank, and sudden flashbacks. 3 their countdown, as if a short interval of the Canon. 4. Suicidal killers, heavy breathing with plastic bags over their heads, underwater funerals, singing old songs with dying enemies. 5. Excellent mixing, sometimes amplifying ambient sound, sometimes creating expressive sound effect, with Greenwood's score set off the mood and emotion of the protagonist. "Angel Baby," in the governor's bedroom, is both ironical and increasingly poignant. 6. Psycho and Taxi Driver intertext. 7. The surrealist fantasy that ends so brutally and abruptly vs the vision of "Today is a beautiful day" as if it were a warm ray of sunshine in a cold, bitter world. (9.0/10)

The Cannes version is just over 80 minutes, I don't know what happened. The movie is a bit of a "Taxi Driver," but it's a "Man on Fire" kind of plot, and that's what happens when the main character suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder and childhood trauma. Delve deeper into the character and plunge him into mental chaos, which is the difference between art and commercial films. There's something really cool and there's something really cheesy. The music is great. Phoenix grows into a bear.
