If I make a movie by myself one day, I hope it will be like this. It is an excellent example. It seems that after a few times in my heart, I can be immortal and ingenious, and inherit a little innovative spirit. Actor experience and script story, drama and film, comment and creation, all kinds of mirror images, with the introspection and profoundness of European-style literary film, performance, photography, soundtrack and stage setting, all aspects of the film are excellent enough! ★★★★★

What's the point of a long shot? In addition to showing off skills and playing time and space, what else can you do? The past of the characters and the misery are just tools. The director doesn’t understand at all. He doesn’t love these characters. He really knows how to catch a current topic, but what he wants to express is empty and pretentious, thinking he’s filming. What a shocking work, the original idea of the movie is no different from an eight magazine
