The ending of the Coen brothers' work is always unpredictable. Cliff-style ending, let people who want to know the ending and those who don't want to know the ending pass the customs outside. You have to know a principle. Western stories never need to know the story. This time, the Coen brothers kindly told a few stories, but After that, the bad taste came again. The sixth story is really unpredictable, with layers of details wrapped in it. At the moment when the last gate is opened, no one opens the door for the lady. The reliefs of angels and goats on the door indicate that the gate is used by both angels and demons. The first story at the beginning begins with the ascension of angels, and ends with the opening and closing of the demon gate. When the demon closes the door, it will always make people shudder. I like gold panning stories the most, pure as angels, and least like circus stories, dark like demons, the whole story is just like the name, the angels come talking about the harp, and the demons go with their souls. Cohen will never leave you with audiovisual enjoyment, but will trap you in their films to ponder. The sixth story, all the finishing touches, the carriage does not stop, because the undead is driving, all the ramblings are asking you to repay the audio-visual pleasure of the previous five levels. There are not many people who understand, and they don't need many.

The emotional control of the whole movie is very good, and the director walks backwards.
