Throw away the so-called profound thesis and don't think about it. You can see the hint just from the title. This is a photographic work about seeing and being seen. The candid camera hidden in the plot is actually intentionally replaced by a public/audience gaze in the end. The audience is unknowingly and gradually put into the position of the watcher/critic, to think and feel the family and the man they see. If I wasn't French and I wasn't familiar with that period of French history, I'm afraid those two flashback shots that were supposed to evoke some deep hidden secrets in the audience wouldn't have resonated with me, for example. So it doesn't feel creepy at all. I simply take it as a documentary on the life, communication, decoration, and daily routine of the French middle class. I also like it.

Three and a half. Shooting settings, not stories and characters, there is a very important front-end is to hide the camera, like the "child" next door, after a beautiful opening, it is to shoot this sense of spread, the script is not difficult to write, especially ha A name like Neck. Polanski's "Killing" also started with the setting, but he made up the characters and the story. These are two different approaches. Generally speaking, the tighter the story, the clearer the point of view. The clearer the point is, it becomes judgment rather than judgment. Provide space for thinking, unless there is a level of expression, but the meaning of this film may not be here. As for the meaning and purpose of this, I don't know, I can only think that the shooting settings are good, but everything else is swallowed up inside.

Georges Laurent: Isn't it lonely, if you can't go out?
Georges's Mom: Why? Are you less lonely because you can sit in the garden? Do you feel less lonely in the metro than at home? Well then! Anyway, I have my family friend... with remote control. Whenever they annoy me, I just shut them up.
