Another good movie was dug up.
Very few people have seen it, and only more than a thousand people on Douban have marked it as "seen".
But the more unpopular it is, the easier it is to produce a masterpiece.
This movie, I don't allow you to have not seen it yet.
Katie's Farewell
Usually, the most direct reason for the film's unpopularity is that the main creative team is not famous.
But this movie is different, its configuration is still quite strong.
Directed by Wayne Roberts.
"Katie's Farewell" is his debut film, with a Douban score of 7.6.
The second work, "The Professor", starred Johnny Depp, and the Douban score was 7.6.
Both works have delivered good results, which is great.
Stills from "The Professor"
Starring Olivia Cook.
The most familiar character should be the heroine in "Ready Player One".
In "Bates Inn" and "Vanity Fair", she also has wonderful performances.
The little girl is not tall enough, but she has a spirit and her acting skills are also very good.
In Katie's Farewell, she can say that she single-handedly supported the entire film.
Several performances, all of which I can't help but praise.
Katie (Olivia Cook), a young girl living in a small town.
She has no father and lives with her mother.
The mother is unreliable, drunk, promiscuous, unemployed...
So, the expenses at home are all supported by Katie.
She works as a waitress in a restaurant, greets her every day, and is always smiling.
At the same time, she also does the work of providing sexual services to men in small towns.
The police in the town, the truck drivers... All her guests.
Unlike the flirtatious style of ordinary bridesmaids, in Katie's body, you can hardly see the smell of wind and dust.
She was pure, beautiful, calm, timid like a bunny.
Nor are her guests as obscene and pornographic as the average prostitute.
Truck drivers even treated her as a relative and friend, loving and caring for her from the bottom of their hearts.
Probably because she has witnessed her mother and men having promiscuous sex since childhood, in Katie's heart, being a supportive woman is not a heinous thing.
What's more, life is too stressful, and she needs a person to support her and her mother's expenses and rent.
She still had a little dream in her heart.
She wanted to use the money to get out of town and go to San Francisco, where she would learn to get a haircut while working as a waitress.
She says a haircut can make others feel good about themselves and make others a little happier.
It was a tough day, but it was uneventful until she met Bruno.
He was the town's new car repairman, had lived in prison and was always reticent.
Katie has liked him from the first time they met him and practiced a lot of opening remarks in order to talk to him.
Of course, she also managed to get together with him.
Katie, who is in love, has honey in her eyes.
Take Bruno home to dinner with his mother and give himself to Bruno.
The dream of going to San Francisco also became, to go to San Francisco with Bruno.
Even the truck driver said Katie was happier than before.
However, such days did not last long.
The curse of the previous friendship begins to be exposed with the arrival of love.
On the one hand, Bruno had heard about Katie's aid from someone else.
Bruno is angry, and Katie realizes that she is not doing the right thing to do, and immediately promises not to do that again.
She really loved him and really decided never to do it again.
But on the other hand, there are some things that she doesn't say she doesn't do.
The colleague's father dragged her into a remote alley, verbally threatening, Katie had to untie her clothes, and finally bumped into this scene by her colleague.
Katie had to flee.
The youth of the town dragged her into no-man's land, verbally humiliated, physically constrained, and came up to slap Katie.
This time, Katie was forced.
Love, let Katie see the light of day.
But the past life has obscured this light little by little.
The day after being forced, Bruno heard about it.
Furious, he called Katie away from the hotel where she worked, and the noisy didn't listen to Katie's explanation at all.
Throwing some money at Katie is the price of taking Katie before.
Then he flew away, leaving Katie alone in the deserted place.
The whole time, he didn't listen to Katie's explanation, nor did he see the scars in Katie's eyes.
Maybe he didn't love Katie that much either.
Prior to this, in the face of Katie's mother's seduction, he did not show rejection.
The first blow comes from love.
The second blow comes from family affection.
Katie heard about her mother seducing Bruno, but she forced herself not to care.
However, when she returned home after being abandoned by Bruno, she found that her mother had taken all her savings and disappeared.
It was the savings she had accumulated over the years, all the savings she had saved to realize her dreams.
Katie wanted to cry without tears, and forced herself to go to work calmly, still smiling and indifferent.
However, when she arrived at the hotel, she learned that her colleague had blamed her for stealing money, because Katie had previously had a relationship with her father and had been bumped into by her.
Katie did not have any excuse for this, and it was as if she were atone for her own mistakes.
At this point, Katie lost her love.
Lost affection.
Lost my job.
Penniless, she ended up with only a pink overalls.
Throughout the movie, Katie wore most of her overalls.
Although it is simple, it has pink dreams and pink girlish feelings.
When everything was lost, Katie wore this overalls and walked alone on the earth.
Suddenly, she slumped on the ground.
The bodies curled up together, and the collapsed wail was twice, and tears flowed down their faces.
It didn't take long for her to return to normalcy.
Looking around in a daze, looking at it, the confusion in his eyes had disappeared and all became firm.
She walked forward and walked.
Just behind the road, a large truck drove.
She waved her hand at the car behind her, which was a gesture to stop the car and hitch a ride.
Say goodbye to the town that hurt her.
It's time to head to San Francisco.
"Katie's Farewell" is a very quiet film, but it is not dull.
The joy and collapse of a young girl are clearly displayed on the screen, and every plot is touching, making people can't help but worry about her fate.
At the same time, she brings a lot of thought.
For example: the abyss of the original family, if you can escape, you can escape.
Learn to say "no" to people who hurt you, even your loved ones.
If you have a dream, you have to leave at any time, and every second you delay is a waste.
