    It's not bad to be able to see such characters. She doesn't rely on emotional feelings to establish a connection with the audience, and she doesn't use this set of relationships with others herself, so she can't get a model of emotional connection, which is fair. This toughness and coldness can make her deal with life calmly. It's very good. As for how many people she offends, I don't care. Anyway, she pays the price in full. Besides, the creator is still compassionate and left her a...

    It begins with a sudden sexual assault and ends with a long road through the grave. Instead, it is not "her"'s revenge against life, but a cold and even indifferent response - "oh". Excellent human analysis, perverted and charming, this senseless but powerful control makes all the characters (even the audience) willing to be slaves, which is amazing. #Hong Kong Summer International Film...

    This is the 21st century version of the prudent charm of the bourgeoisie. Anyway, in the stage of proletarian poverty, I can't get more resonance, except that the male neighbor is really a walking hormone, come and fuck...

    Every character and every plot is being made. I'm sorry, absurdity and obscenity are not the same thing. The most taboo thing about Acura feminism is to deliberately belittle men, a film without any...

    Huppert was once again possessed by "Piano Teacher", and Haneke's sternness and condensedness were also implanted in Verhoeven's marrow. Deja Vu inevitably reduced the surprise. Including this script, the complex and rich surface is more from the stacking of serious matters. Although the filming is too complete, although it is conducive to the fullness of the characters, the film also loses its aftertaste. Overall, it is more than calm and lacks...

    nice! Maybe it's because I'm perverted hahaha. The plot is laid out without a single minute of death, and it is so oppressive that people can't breathe. "I'm never worried about your big-breasted sluts, but believe me, women who have read second sex, they will eat you alive and then abandon you like a shoe." This sentence is too classic! The 63-year-old Huppert's brows and eyes are full of drama, morbid and cold-blooded, murderous and sexy. In the future, I will cultivate into an old woman like...

    Addiction is the wild wind roaring through the blinds, the temptation is the quiet and scorching floor heating hidden in the basement, and the itch is the fiery and thirsty gaze of the telescope. A man who cannot look directly at his inner addiction can only quench his thirst with a mask; a woman who cannot resist the fatal temptation has to be sick to relieve itching. The hatred of her father, the absurdity of her mother, the ambiguity of friends, the bullying of neighbors, and the resistance...

    I don’t know where the sexual assault and humor you are talking about. I was very sad after watching it, and missed the warm gaze and the touch of being on the scene the first time. I only had the opportunity to see it today. I think we might not watch the same...

    There is nothing wrong with the language of the film. But you say that this is a morbid state of modernity, which is consistent with the game settings. I would not recognize it if it is feminism. If all family and social relations are distorted, women will win? It's not a question of gender saving, the most brutal is the logic of the jungle, which requisitions all kinds of...

    The three lines of the masked rapist, my father's unfortunate past, and office conflict should have intersected in the Hollywood genre, but in Verhoeven's anti-genre they have no causal connection, a deliberately false narrative. The installation is a mockery of the formulaic narrative. The heroine is a person with no sense of morality. Her character does not change and grow. After doing bad things, the conflicts that plagued her are resolved one by one. This is a mockery of Hollywood...

    Michèle Leblanc: I stopped lying.

  • Michèle Leblanc: It's twisted.

    Patrick: Sorry?

    Michèle Leblanc: Twisted. Between us., it's sick. Diseased. I was in some kind of weird denial but I see clearly now.

    Patrick: What do you see?

    Michèle Leblanc: You don't expect to get away with what you did to me? Huh? I'll do what I should've done at once.

    Patrick: What do you mean?

    Michèle Leblanc: It's not just about me. There's your wife, too. And others, perhaps. Who knows.

    Patrick: What do you mean?

    Michèle Leblanc: How many others? That you've done the same thing to? I'll go to the police. I'll tell them everything.
