It seems that the same batch of negatives was used as "Zoom". Mark's performance seems to have inspired Vertigo, but Helen is just as neurotic as Mark's. What is the full picture of the documentary that Mark wants to...

This topical film that caused Michael Powell to interrupt his directorial career (forced to leave the UK due to public opinion) was criticized when it was released, but today it is undoubtedly a masterpiece! Aside from being a psychological thriller, it's also a film full of metaphors—a movie, perhaps born out of the human desire to...

On the surface, the film is about the Freudian relationship...

In fact, it can be very good as a psychological analysis film to watch. People’s desire to spy is inherently different in degree. Most people are curious and spy within the scope of public order, good customs and moral consciousness, while addicted voyeurs with no boundaries are more of a mental disorder. The video that Mark's father made when he was a child is reminiscent of Watson's little Albert's fear experiment. M's father caused a fright by conditioned stimulus M, and the medium and...

9.0/10. ①The eccentric serial killer photographer male protagonist (his abnormality stemmed from his father who studied "children's fear" in his childhood as an experimental subject and used a camera to record the "results" of these experiments) after falling in love with the female protagonist Wandering and struggling between murders. ②Whether it is pointing the camera at other people or objects, watching movies, or the camera's perspective, it is all a visualization of the concept of "gaze"....
