"Le Locataire" is a classic suspense horror film of the 20th century
.
Polanski explored the absurdity of the world in this film. Tarkovsky lived in this apartment, and everything he encountered was inexplicable to him, without any reason. If the reason must be investigated, it is that he chose to live in this apartment, which is the cause of his tragic ending. This is the absurdity of life. The film is still discussing a problem, and that is the relationship between people and the environment. Whether people transform the environment or the environment transforms people depends on which party has the greater power. If there is a conflict between man and the environment, and the power of the environment is too strong, then the fate of man can only be tragedy. Tarkovsky initially wanted to integrate with the environment, but the environment did not accept him. This is morbid, but the environment does not accept him. This morbid, neurotic, and absurd environment made Tarkovsky, who had been normal, slowly become abnormal. After being abnormal, Tarkovsky will of course only do abnormal things, and the environment will not accept him again because of his abnormality, so he has to die.
