"La pianist" severely analyzes the dark side of a female pianist's heart and brain, calmly and compassionately depicting the heroine and the individual psychopaths of the characters around her (especially the sexual sores and dark scars). Strange, spicy, vivid and extraordinary. The palpable mother-daughter relationship in the film is more provocative due to the sophisticated skills of the screenwriter and director in mastering the audience's psychology, making the viewers unbalanced and wrestling on the balance of ethics and morals, as if the plot has caused them to fall into the abyss of nasty human nature; but It is the sordid abyss in everyone's heart that will connect with the sordid humanity opened by the film.
The most shocking thing about "La pianist" is all kinds of perverted sexual fantasies. The director apparently attributed Erica’s extreme personality to her mother’s high-pressure control and excessive expectations. Therefore, Erica appreciated the talented female student in her heart, but she still verbally taught her in derogatory and insulting ways. Burning with jealousy and destroying his piano life; this subtle complex of identification and jealousy for the next generation is also the source of the depth of the role.

In terms of scene scheduling, it is a masterpiece of the combination of director and actors. The white background tone fully symbolizes the desolation and desolation of the heroine's inner world, and also contrasts the frantic absurdity hidden under the holy image. Except for Erica's home, such as the piano room and concert hall, the lens is used to create an empty depth of field, and the scenery is also simple, focusing on the characters. The compositional frame design is especially superb. The head-up lens of the middle or panoramic view is fixed. In the same lens, everyone's expression reaction is full of narrative tension regardless of the distance from the lens.
"Cold" is the deepest impression left by "La pianist": the director's "coldness" of the subject matter to the shooting technique, Erica's "coldness" of her lover to her mother to her students, and the "coldness" of Huppel's acting skills. "cold". It is so cold that people don't know whether to give mercy or contempt. At the end, the teacher wanted to assassinate the boy, but because the boy looked back and smiled and couldn't get his hands off, he had to stab himself. This self-harm once again proved to the audience that she still had the gentlest side of women while she was hit and insulted
