can be sweet or salty, humorous and amorous.
Even if his limbs are deformed and his head is bald, his appearance remains unchanged.
-"The Witch".
The protagonist of "The Witch"
01
is a little boy. When his parents died in a car accident when he was seven years old, he was picked up by his grandmother to live together. Grandma
tried her best to help him out of sorrow, bought pet rats, danced cheerfully, and wrapped him with warmth at all times.
Under his care, the little boy gradually came out of the sadness of losing his parents.
But the good times didn't last long. One day, the little boy met a mysterious woman in the supermarket.
Wearing long green gloves, she reached out and handed out a piece of candy, but a snake crawled out of her cuff. Grandma
told him that it was a witch, and the two fled the town. When
stayed overnight in the hotel, the little boy accidentally ran into a witch rally and learned of their huge conspiracy...
"Witch"
was adapted from a children's novel of the same name published in 1973.
may not be familiar with the original author Roald Dahl, but you must have heard of his works more or less.
such as "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", "Matilda", "Good-Eye Giant" and so on.
These children's literature works are quite classic, many of which have been adapted and put on the big screen.
Because of this, Roald Dahl is also known as one of the most important fantasy writers in the contemporary world.
His works have strange ideas and compact plots. The stories often break the conventional correspondence between reality and fantasy from the beginning, giving people a sense of beauty that is humorous or absurd or witty.
Both children and adults are fascinated by it.
"The Witch"
and "The Witch", as Roald's masterpiece, has actually been adapted into a movie for the second time. The 1990 version of
was well received at the time and became a classic of cult movies in one fell swoop. The scene in the
film where the witch boss tears off his skin and turns into a witch is too cult.
The 1990 version of "The Witch"
is the second adaptation of the film after a lapse of 30 years. The creative team can be called luxurious.
director Robert Zemigis, once swept the Oscars with "Forrest Gump", the American "national teacher-level" director.
Gilmo Del Toro and Alfonso Cuarón also participated in the film's screenwriting and production work.
Anne Hathaway again made an image "sacrifice" in the film.
has torn corners of his mouth, deformed hands and feet, and a bald head under the wig, which is simply disfigured. The classic IP of
, a lot of big coffee and the self-sacrifice in the image of the goddess, it can be said that the film has won at the starting line. How can a movie like
not collapse?
However, it just collapsed. What's the matter with
?
Don't worry, and look down.
"The Witch"
02
Frankly speaking, after watching this film, Xiao He is very "spoken."
Don't get me wrong, it's really not that the shot is useless, but I don't know how to evaluate it.
You say it is a fantasy fairy tale for children. Some sections are really scary for children.
For example, the witch boss smelled the protagonist's child at the rally, his eyes were bigger than bull's eyes, his eyes turned left and right, even Erkang's big nostrils twitched back and forth.
found the protagonist's hiding place with a grinning face, and pulled him out by pulling his ears.
Another example is the grandmother telling the protagonist how she witnessed her good friend being lured into a chicken by a witch when she was a child.
The scene where the little girl turned into a chicken keeps stomping her feet and pecking the table with her mouth.
"The Witch"
is the most important thing at the end of the film. After all, the protagonist and his friends who were turned into mice by the witch did not turn back into human beings.
This is consistent with the original novel, but it is not as good as the old version as a children's film. In the old version of
, there is a kind-hearted witch in the witch group who is not evil and has been persecuted to be in the same way. The surviving one turns the protagonist and others back into humans.
The two endings are put together. As an adult, Xiaohe naturally likes the new version.
can be considered from the perspective of children's movies, it is obvious which one is more suitable. The ending of the old version of
is not only a family joy, but can also add a touch of brilliance to the children's dreams except for the ugly witch. The new version of
may only ask questions for children who still don’t understand the profound connotation: Why does
struggle to fight the old witch not end well?
"Witch"
If you see it here, you must be curious about the classification of this film. It is indeed a PG. All ages can be watched with the accompaniment of parents.
However, as mentioned above, the choreographer contains too many cult elements.
But if these private goods define it as an adult cult, it really seems a bit pediatric.
In fact, from the perspective of adult cults, the biggest problem of this film, Xiao He, has already been mentioned at the beginning of the article.
That is the goddess Anne Hathaway, even if her limbs are deformed and her head is bald, her appearance remains undiminished.
Even if the disguise is removed, she still looks so good.
"The Witch"
Look at the old version of the witch boss, I'm so sick that I don't want to release stills.
has a big pointed nose, rotten skin, and a few white hairs on his head.
If you can’t make up your mind, just think it’s 10,000 times uglier than the Dapeng Jing in "Journey to the West".
Movies 30 years ago were able to achieve such an effect through makeup, but how can they not use special effects to get to the next level?
So you see, it is this vacillation in positioning that caused the embarrassing situation of the collapse of the film’s reputation.
If the director finds the correct position, converges a bit according to the fantasy fairy tale shooting, and releases a bit according to the adult cult shooting, then the overall effect will be much better.
Now Xiao He can only dare to define it as a children's horror movie.
hastily.
"The Witch"
actually said so much. Putting aside the problem of unclear positioning, Xiaohe is still willing to call this film a wise movie.
hides the suffering under the simple goodness of the children, focuses on the depiction of the evil magic of the witch, and ends the plot in the victory over the witch. The metaphor of the whole story of
is actually the two heaviest themes in life-death and tragedy.

The protagonist who lost his parents and turned into a mouse, became a mouse, was a fat boy who was abandoned by his parents and was abandoned, escaped from the orphanage and was deceived to become a little girl who became a mouse, lost her daughter and had to face the imminent death of her grandson Grandma...
