You can see it
in Steven Soderbergh's experimental «Bubble» from 2006, a love triangle
set in a small - town
doll factory featuring non-actors, and
in Zhang Yimou's 2000 drama «Not One Less,» about the struggles of schoolchildren
in a rural Chinese village played by... schoolchildren
in a rural Chinese village.
Lafia intriguingly employs childhood iconography
in the more troubling moments (Chucky destroys another Good Guy
doll and buries it beneath a swing
set, and he commits a brutal murder with a plastic ruler
in a kindergarten classroom), so when the film's final
set - piece takes place
in the actual Good Guys
factory, filled with countless clones of that godawful
doll, you'd expect there to be some appropriately traumatic imagery backing everything up.
