Linda Holmes: 我非常喜欢《存在》这部电影的氛围和拍摄方式。虽然剧本本身可能并不出色,但它提供了一个框架,让索德伯格能够进行视觉实验。我特别喜欢电影以鬼的视角呈现故事,以及镜头和配乐的运用,营造出一种令人不安的氛围。虽然我不确定这是否是一部恐怖电影,但我认为它是一部令人不安的电影。 Glenn Weldon: 我认为《存在》最初看起来像是一个角色研究,更深奥和艺术化,但后来变得更像类型片。我喜欢这部电影的导演和拍摄方式,但不太喜欢剧本。我认为剧本是可用的,但索德伯格能够在上面展示很多视觉实验。这部电影最大的问题在于,它试图将所有的线索都联系在一起,但实际上并没有必要。 Walter Chow: 我最初对《存在》这部电影很感兴趣,认为这是索德伯格的一次伟大的实验,但他对恐怖类型的热爱并不真实,剧本很平庸。电影的风格很出色,但服务于一个无趣的故事,这让我最终对这部电影感到反感。我认为这部电影作为一部恐怖片也不太成功,它非常传统。此外,我对母亲是亚洲人,并且是那种对学术非常感兴趣的“虎妈”的刻板印象感到担忧。

Shownotes Transcript

In the new Steven Soderbergh film Presence, a family moves into an old house, and weird stuff starts happening. But what's different about this haunted house story is that the movie told from the point of view of the ghost. We only get glimpses of the family, but gradually we start to piece together their brittle dynamic.*Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at **letterboxd.com/nprpopculture *)Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoices)NPR Privacy Policy)
