Just a few small experiences

Black Book

is a good film worth watching. The plot is tight and rigorous, and there are no obvious loopholes; the actors are also in place, and the director has a good grasp of the rhythm.

The general feeling is a bit like the Chinese version of Lust and Caution, where a certain woman uses her beauty as a spy, dealing with high-ranking enemy officials. The difference is that the black book is always full of mysteries, and until the end, I don't know who the hateful informer is. Moreover, the revolution was finally victorious.

The heroine is very good. Her appearance, figure, temperament, acting skills, singing voice, etc. are all very good. Although she is not as shocking as Nicole, she is also very good. I am optimistic about her development prospects. Doctors, lawyers, fat German officers, bald-headed officers and other characters are all outstanding, and they make a good show.

Germany is known for its strictness in handling affairs. The German military makes 15 copies of everything, which is a good habit. It is very organized and pays attention to the preservation of data.

The interrogation of the "terrorists" by the German army (the water tap), and the punishment of the traitors by the citizens after the war, are far too pedantic and too gentle compared to our past. Alas, what an ancient and cruel country it is.

The heroine in the film has a high emotional intelligence, pays attention to details, can control her emotions well, knows how to use her own advantages (such as the scene where she dyes her hair and is seen through), installs bugs, drives a car, and saves herself from insulin poisoning. Professional level, but sometimes seem very naive and absurd, such as implying that the female companion, she is a spy, thinks it is not reasonable here.

If there is any regret, it is the flashback method adopted in the film. The audience already knew from the beginning that the heroine can finally get out of her body, so there is less tension in the film.

    When it first came out, I thought it was completely incomparable with Lust Caution (the part about Lust). . Only later did I realize that I was looking at the castrated version. . Ha ha. . The actress is so dedicated that she has nothing to say. I heard that every time she goes to the set, her scalp tingles when she sees the director giving her flowers. . . I thought it would be miserable again today. . . .
