    Oh my god! incredible! A film in the 1960s, with such an obscure subject matter, so squarely faces the heroine's lust and emotional predicament, and the attitude is still understandable, which is unimaginable. The panic and tension in the latter part of the incident, and the life situation at the end, are very real. The last set of shots echoes the beginning and end, and there are new changes. You can see the female protagonist's mental journey. There is a kind of irony to life in that kind of self-remodeling. Awesome awesome!
