    My favorite Fassbender, in the films directed by Fa Da, often discusses the themes of abuse and abuse, suppression and manipulation in love, but this set digs these themes the most deeply. The setting on the characters, the processing on the lens, the design on the scenery and costumes, and the intriguing ending at the end will also lead the audience into this dark and cruel labyrinth of human nature - the third body vision (the setting of the maid ), metaphors (mannequins in the house -...

    There are only 5 scenes in the whole film, with an average of 25 minutes per scene. This number may not be a big deal for other directors who like to play gimmicks, but Fassbender's fascination with drama is actually more extreme, including lighting, sets, and actresses' costumes are all staged. The two types of women, Bertina and her maid, are also "only in...

    Deliberation in transgressing against Bazin's distinction between painting and film; masochistic theatricality and its metastatic aesthetic; "artifice paradoxically brings us closer to our...

    Fassbender's first well-rounded masterpiece, photographically stable and balanced, depicts Love on the Edge in a graceful, yet decadent manner. Especially Marina's speechless and masochistic symbols are very intriguing. She is only a slave to be dispatched in the film, but she will appear in the scene in a harsh and dazzling way. She is even like all marginalized people. Totem: I can have no love, but can't be given to normal, because I have always been...

    Fassbender's thesis film, with a taste of Pasolini. It's completely staged, with a single scene and only a few female actors. Possession and acquisition, there is no male character in the whole film (Fassbender appeared in the newspaper...), but a series of extensions are launched around males. The same-sex infatuation in the film is vague or symbolic and formal. The hysteria at the end of the credits and the screaming struggle with loneliness further sublime the theme. The maid is a very...

    The visual presentation of theatrical stage, in a single scene, the movement of characters, scene scheduling, light and shadow, scene layout, and props are all extremely delicate and detailed, as if opening an exquisite doll's house, in which the women live in a completely It is wonderful to be separated from the outside world and the male world, to talk about love between the two sexes, to love each other and to hate each other, to leave and come back. The world of female artists is full of...

    Wonderful psychological indoor scheduling, endless entanglement of desire and power, with "Midas and Bacchus" as the semantic basis, interpretation of Petra-Karin's changing movement of identity and power, derived from love and imprisoned two sides of one, in the spirit of Western individualism Next, a reflection on "self and other". (I feel that the characters in RWF's film are not so "muppet" anymore. At present, it is the only RWF work that can naturally "enter" the character's emotions....

  • Petra von Kant: I've had such awful dreams.

  • Petra von Kant: We all have to have our own experiences. I don't regret it one bit. No one can take away the things you learn in life. On the contrary, they give you maturity.

    Sidonie von Grasenabb: I don't know, Petra. When you can foresee the end from the start, is the experience alone worth it?
