Marcuse interprets today's class conflict as the gap between consumption and style, rather than the opposition between the absolute capitalist and the absolute poor. The French left-wing director even responded with sympathy and understanding to the murderer. Of course, what the film talks about is not pure class conflict, nor mental illness and anti-social personality. Rather, it is to explore whether certain crazy individuals will inevitably be born under the post-modern society where the class gap has become the background. It is hard to imagine here if China could make the Hangzhou nanny arson case into a movie.

Jeanne la postière: They're pathetic. What do they know? They've got it all. Their biggest worry is what color car to buy. Or which cousin stole half the inheritance. I'd be happy with a tenth of what they have. I'd have the life I wanted, instead of just the opposite.

Georges Lelievre: [referring, respectively, to Sophie the illiterate maid and Jeanne the nosy postal clerk] What a pair: one can't read at all, and the other reads our mail.
