Yimei's acting skills are very good, both in the emotional transformation and the adjustment of the three personalities (good blues, bad blues, and wife all three appear in the movie).
The director also buried all the holes he dug. For example, why did Bruce see his dead brother and why he changed the channel angrily when a black man appeared while watching AV.
The pigs, sheep, strange birds, witches, and wolves seen by Bruce also interpret the characters of those people, such as the dirty and greedy pigs, the weak and submissive sheep, and the cunning and cruelty of wolves.
The mother and son appearing in the film, from the beginning of the mother's sexual desire to the projection of their own family, shows the desire of Bruce's family for their loved ones. The only one who really regarded him as a friend was Bracey, but he cheated, insulted, framed, and seduced Bracey's wife to treat Bracey. In prison, he just vented his emotions to Bracey at first, and finally beat him. But he was outraged by Bracey's kindness.
At the end of the movie most of the time good Bruce comes out, it's when he discovers his personality about his wife, after that he thinks about redemption but finally chooses to commit suicide. In the moment when the stool is kicked away, bad blues shows up to express his conflict, the good side feels ashamed and wants to die, while the bad side doesn't want to die.
The movie is a good example of how terrifying mental illness can be if left untreated, making a good cop (in which Bruce talks to the female superintendent that he was a good cop and the female cop had heard of it) into a bad one. People are ghosts and ghosts, and they are addicted to sex, alcohol, and drugs every day.
Finally, the introduction of this movie on Baidu Encyclopedia is really pitiful!

Filth quotes

  • Bruce Robertson: See, every time a woman drops her trousers: promotion. Every time a man drops theirs: disciplinary action. Where's the equality in that?

  • Bruce Robertson: The games are always, repeat always, being played. But nobody plays the games like me. Detective Sergeant Bruce Robertson, soon to be Detective Inspector Bruce Robertson. You just have to be the best, and I usually am. Same rules apply.
