Black Narcissus is that rare thing, an erotic English-language film about nuns' fantasies that was released just months before India's independence from Britain in August 1947, so when the nuns abandoned the Himalayas and headed down the mountain , the final image of the film might be interpreted by British audiences in 1947 as a final farewell to their fading empire, not a failed image for the filmmakers, but a sense of the British never had And understand something respectful and rational...

Driven by the environment, people will gradually be stripped of their cocoons, unable to resist or escape. The plot of the film makes me feel a little scary, people's inner endurance is limited, it is difficult to predict when it will erupt, and the environment is a key factor. The layout of the film is very impressive, and several actors also performed...
