Yesterday, I was wondering whether or not to rank Lord Lu's ANNA in the top ten of my 2019 movie viewing. In fact, if ANNA came out before the big cousin's Red Sparrow and Sai Huang's Atomic Blond, it would definitely be in my top ten, but After enjoying the acting skills and scale of the first two works, and then watching ANNA, first of all, the theme crashed (the Red Sparrow was properly rear-ended), and secondly, the female lead's skills were really not bright. but! After all, Master Lu is Master Lu. No matter how simple or bad the story is or how similar it is, his storytelling skills are extraordinary. This time, Master Lu played the whole story through palindrome, palindrome! The name of the heroine is not chosen casually, ANNA, a typical palindrome word, and from the visual effect of letter writing, it is a fully symmetrical structure. There are too many symmetrical or opposite plots in the whole film. After cutting the veins, he joined KGB and the heroine and was finally shot and killed by Helen Mirren three times and then came back to life. Another example is that when the heroine was recruited by KGB, it was her left wrist that was cut by her veins. In the middle of the film, when she was recruited by the CIA, her left wrist was handcuffed first, causing the watch to fall off, which made Helen Mirren suspicious. Another example is the "Never put your faith in men" that the handsome KGB guy said when he brainwashed the heroine, and finally the heroine invited the two handsome guys, KGB and CIA, to have an awkward chat... Except for the symmetry before and after many details of the film , Many important segments of the film are also palindromic structures. The content of the film is how the heroine transformed from a slave who assists the operation of the state machine to a free process of owning her own territory and creating her own spiritual homeland. When watching backwards, there are a lot of "current + The narrative technique of "flashback + back to the present" can also make people understand the ins and outs of the entire clip. In addition, the whole film is looking at Lu Ye telling a new story, and looking backwards is a retrospective of Lu Ye’s classic style since his career: super body, the fifth element, this killer is not too cold, Nikita ......Remember what KGB handsome said when recruiting ANNA: "But what you can't do is reject life itself. You life was a gift. Who gave it to you?...Their lives are over . But yours isn't. Have a little faith...Never put your faith in men,

    There are too many flashbacks, which is a bit annoying.

    In a movie that is getting better, the agent Mao Mei sleeps in KGB and then slept in the CIA. She is well versed in chess and decides not to be a chess piece. In order to gain freedom, she becomes a human-shaped dung stick and stirs U.S.-Soviet intelligence. The department was battered and bloody; the ending was reversed repeatedly, making people astounded! Although Luc Besson has regressed in his directing ability in recent years, he has maintained a high level in the selection of the heroine as always. Several passionate scenes have fully revealed the French style, romance and wildness!
