This is also reality

Let's talk about the film itself first. Compared with the first one, the director is obviously interested in sublimation. The first is a purely cult film, without too much comment, very pornographic and violent. The director of the second part has intentions to move closer to violent aesthetics from the color, the screen and the soundtrack. The plot is not compact enough and the impact is not enough, but the reversal in the plot is somewhat new. Stewart becomes a eunuch in one second is still bloody.

Let’s talk about the extension of the film. In the first part, two people died, one is the most beautiful Icelandic, and the other is the most honest. The protagonist who survives is a bit bad, but he is still a brave and positive character. Of course it’s a pity. It was he who started making soy sauce in the second part and then he died. This is something later. In the second part, two people died, one is the most erotic and the other is the most honest Lola. The relatively brave and moderate protagonist survives again. In the other two supporting actors, one seems brave and is scratching. After getting rid of the girl’s face, she couldn’t bear to leave. She was bitten to death by a dog. The other seemed to be weak, but in fact she was actually weak, and finally turned into a eunuch. These are very similar to life. Weak people are ruthlessly defeated by life, and their behavior is too outrageous. It's hard to escape bad luck, and good people may not end well. The last survivors are those who seem ordinary, but are brave in reality. In fact, this might not be a sorrow.
