ʻO Robert Eggers 'makahiki hope o ka 2015 ʻO ka Witch he iho malie i ka pupule; he huakaʻi ʻaʻole no ka maʻule.

Ka Hale Kahu ukali i ʻelua mau kahu kukui ma kahi mokupuni mamao loa a pohihihi o New England i nā 1890s. Ke holo nei ko lākou manawa ma ka mokupuni, komo ka hoʻomanawanui i ka lahilahi a ulu ka pulakaumaka a puni ka kukui uila o ka hale kukui.

ʻIke, nani loa ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni. Pana ʻia i ka ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo me ka lakio 4: 3, paʻa ka cinematography i kāna kumuhana a paʻa paʻa. Mālama ʻia nā monologue āpau me ka maka ʻole, e hoʻokau nei i nā hana kupaianaha mai nā hōkū ʻo Robert Pattinson lāua ʻo Willem Dafoe i loko o ka hohonu i hiki ai iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ko lākou ikaika i kou mau iwi.

As Ka Hale Kahu holo, holomua ke kāmele i ka paheʻe o nā huapalapala i ka maʻemaʻe e ka hilinaʻi nui ʻana i nā kihi dutch, e waiho ana i ka poʻe hoʻolohe me ka ʻoluʻolu ʻole ʻO ke kukui - e like me ʻO ka Witch - hana maʻamau ʻia nā mea āpau; ʻūlū ʻia nā hiʻohiʻona me ke ao maoli a uhi ʻia e ka mālamalama o kahi ipukukui hoʻokahi i loko o kahi keʻena pouli. No kahi kiʻi ʻoniʻoni i kūkulu ʻia a puni kahi ulu nui me ka ipukukui o ka mālamalama, manaʻo nui ʻia kēlā me kēia loli i ke kala ʻeleʻele a me keʻokeʻo.

Nā kiʻi i loaʻa i loko Ka Hale Kahu Hoʻopili ʻia i ka lepe papa nani me ka hōʻailona. Ke kahe nei nā superstitions maritime a me nā kaʻao i loko o ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni, holoi i ka hana a kuʻi i ka moʻolelo e like me nā nalu, e huki ana i nā mea ma lalo.

Ua ʻeli ʻo Robert Pattinson me kahi hana hoʻomāinoino ʻia e hoʻokomo iā DiCaprio's i loko ʻO ka uku uku hoʻohilahila. ʻO ia luhi kino kahi hiʻohiʻona ma hope o kahi hōʻike ma hope o kahi hōʻike, e luhi ana i ka poʻe hoʻolohe a hoʻokani nei i ke aloha nui no kāna mau hakakā. Haʻalele nā ​​Pattinson lāua ʻo Dafoe āpau i ka papaʻaina; ʻehaʻeha lākou no ka pono o ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni, a he mea hiki ʻole ke nānā. ʻO kā lākou hana paʻa e hoʻomau i hoʻokahi i kekahi i kekahi ma ka pā o ka pupule he mea kupanaha loa ia. 

Ua nalowale loa ʻo Dafoe i kāna ʻano, no ka mea he paʻakikī ke kamaʻilio kūkaʻa ʻana a me ke kamaʻilio ʻana i kahi manawa. Aia kekahi monologue weluwelu honua e kū hou i ka pale e hoʻomaikaʻi ʻia - kuha ʻia me ka makemake nui e ʻoi aku ka maopopo ma mua o kekahi o kāna mau hua ʻē aʻe. ʻOiai hiki ke paʻakikī ke nānā pono i kāna mea e ʻōlelo nei, maʻalahi mau ʻo ia e hāhai i ke aloha a Dafoe. 

Ke hiki mai i nā monologues, Ka Hale Kahu hoʻopōmaikaʻi ʻia me kekahi kīkēkē maoli. Kū aʻe ʻo Pattinson lāua ʻo Dafoe i ka hana nui a hāʻawi i nā hana keu e ʻōlelo i kā lāua kālena maka ma ke ʻano he mea hana keaka. ʻIke ʻo Eggers i ke kiʻekiʻe o ke akamai āna e hana pū nei a hoʻopaʻa i kā lākou tirades me ka mahalo nui loa, e ʻae iā lākou e wili i ko lākou mākala noʻeau.

ʻOiai, Ka Hale Kahu Loaʻa kekahi mau manawa o ka hoʻomākeʻaka maoli i loko. ʻO kēia mau ʻāpana o ka levity i kiʻi ʻia mai ka absurdity holoʻokoʻa o ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni a kūkulu i ka pilina ma waena o kā mākou ʻano nui (a me nā mea wale nō) -ʻoiai ʻaʻole lākou he leʻaleʻa maoli Huli kā lākou kaua mau ʻana mai ka pīhoihoi waha hoʻokahi a i ka hulahula hoʻokahakaha o ka ʻohana pili ʻona. 

Ua hōʻoia ʻo Eggers iā ia iho kekahi o nā alakaʻi hoihoi loa e hana nei i ka kinima ʻano i kēia lā. Ka Hale Kahu he nui ka huʻihuʻi ʻana ma lalo o ka ʻili, a i ka holomua ʻana o ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni, paila ia a kahe i kēlā me kēia ʻīniha o ka pale me ka huhū unhinged. He kālena nui ʻo Eggers a ʻaʻole hiki iā mākou ke kali e ʻike i kāna hana aʻe.

Nā mea i ʻōlelo ʻia, Ka Hale Kahu ʻaʻole no nā mea āpau. He kuni mālie nō ia, a maliʻa paha he kilohi ʻia no kekahi mau mea hoʻolohe. Akā inā ʻoe e hoʻokokoke i ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni me ke ahonui a me ka noʻonoʻo hāmama, nui nā mea e lawe aku. ʻAʻole ia he huakaʻi maʻalahi, akā ʻo ia kahi āu e poina ʻole ai.

No nā mea hou aʻe ma TIFF 2019, e nānā i kā mākou nīnauele me Midness Madness mea papahana ʻo Peter Kuplowsky a me ka piha 2019 Midnight Madness lineup.
