Onof, a famous writer who has lived in seclusion for many years, became a suspect because of a murder near his residence. Unexpectedly, the sheriff who questioned him was a loyal reader of Onof, and had a soft spot for his works. Confidant dialogue, some little-known past events are also revealed one by one... Is Onof guilty? Who is the...

A rather odd ghost movie. Although it is a bit rambling and mystifying, the revelation obtained is enough to be deafening, because few people in the world have lived to the end of their lives and have asked themselves whether they are happy or dead. Just like after watching a movie, someone will ask why Onof committed suicide, then I will Ask the world why you live like this. In the face of death, you will always ask yourself why you died, while living is like a walking...

Three and a half stars, Polanski could remove all flashbacks and treat it as a closed space if he did it himself, which would be more dramatic. Suspenseful dialogue...

When I bought this D5 that year, Polanski's "The Pianist" just won the award, and the D version dealer also promoted this film as Polanski's work. After watching it today, I found out that the director is actually another director, Tonadore, and Polanski is only the leading actor (of course, his acting skills are also great). I understood the film once, and almost burst into tears at the end. To sum up: a dirge of the soul dedicated to a lonely...

Interview/interrogation-recall/confession is very in line with Western religious tradition, so since suicide is considered a sin, of course a police station is needed to deal with it. Perhaps the vast majority of souls who lack introspection need a mentor to guide (and for those who are extremely unconscious, torture). Before starting the next journey, remember the bittersweet, talk about those trivial achievements, and babble names in sleep , deep-seated gratitude or remorse. So drink that...

Rubini was also handsome when he was young! But not as good as when I was middle-aged XD. The atmosphere is well created, but it really belongs to a movie that can only be watched once, and it spoils a movie that I don't want to watch at all, and I think the sheriff played by Polanski has an unbelievable temperament. What is worth it for a writer who can't write a work? He is...

7/10. What Tonadore really wants to express is self-spiritual cognition. Honore's meticulous and clear expressive ability is fully qualified to be a writer, but he would rather be a mentally embarrassed tramp, suffering from orphanages, plagiarism, and fame and fortune. Stress, the huge gap between the ego and the id became the excuse for Honoré to fall: relying on alcohol to find a moment of peace, afraid to explore the meaning of life from writing, and finally unable to live, shaving his...

The atmosphere is like reading a Kafka...
