Woody Allen teasing God

I 'm not criticizing life, I'm just making fun of God.
Some people say that this film is criticizing the life of high society, and some people say that it is denying people who follow suit... This is one of Woody Allen's attitudes, but what he really wants to deny is "common sense" ", "truth" and many other things that we have identified, and the attitude he identified is "luck". Luck is like dice, it's really hard to say what dice you roll. If you are lucky, then even if you give up your journey on the field, you can get the same aura as a champion. If you are lucky, even if you kill people in a crude way, you will just slip through the net. The male protagonist set by the director is this lucky one.
The rules of the upper class game
The upper class people in the movie are gentle and tolerant of each other, but it is the male protagonist and Nora who have a low-level background who are really wrong. There is a scene before the first sex scene where the hero and Nora have sex (this is easy to remember). It was a rainy day. Tom and Nora played chess. Tom's mother expressed her disapproval of Nora's acting career. It starts with Dad Tom expressing his concern for Nora's audition, then encouragingly saying I am sure someting worthwhile will come along. Nora went on to complain that she didn't do anything right. Mom Tom said How long do you keep it up. This is Tom and Dad both starting to speak for Nora. Tom's mother hopes to transform Nora by transforming Chris. This is not to disapprove of Nora, but to hope that she can follow the rules of life in the upper class. Next, Nora said goodbye in a row, her anger was in place, and finally she left the stage in anger. Tom got up, first apologized for his loud speech, and then expressed his dissatisfaction. This is the father who also got up and stood beside his mother, giving his mother a lot of strength visually. The director's attitude is very clear, and the mother's attitude is dissatisfied by the family. This high society etiquette is clearly expressed. The scene is also full of tension.
