I rarely watch French movies, because I don't like French very much. Even "Angel Amelie", although I think it is good, I always feel that it is not "so so" good-looking.
This film made me see another side of French cinema. How should I put it, the elegance and calmness of a few women, although there are hidden ugliness and despicableness, but the forms of singing and dancing really make me feel very good.

When you see the synopsis, you know that it doesn't matter who the murderer is. But I didn't expect that there was no murderer at all, or that everyone was a murderer.
The ugliness of human nature was exposed on this day, but isn't that male host who looks like a victim also a scumbag? Otherwise, why would you even have to go to your adopted daughter.
Greed, selfishness, suspicion, deception... It
's a beautiful picture, but it's extremely ugly.

    It's a wonderful work that destroys the three views, bluffing screenwriter + abrupt aria + gesture-style performance, but it is first-class photography, scenery and beautiful women, the old lady's final singing is surprisingly amazing, and it is also interesting in its own way.

    [Pierrette]

    Louise: asked me to keep quiet and gave me 10,000 francs.

    Pierrette: Which I regret, you hussy.

    Louise: What?

    Pierrette: Everyone knows you sleep around.

    Louise: You know, since we sleep with the same ones, let me explain the bribe. I overheard you say to Monsieur, "Give me the money or you'll die."

    Pierrette: No I said, "I'll die."

    Louise: No, "You'll die."

    Pierrette: My poor Louise! Your word is no good, you're just a maid.

    Louise: Nor is yours. You're just a whore.

    Pierrette: Which I prefer.
