Very interesting and brilliant film, even a little underrated. Let's start with the title and translation. The literal translation should be "break and enter", the correct translation is "deconstruction of life", and the Hong Kong translation of "Lost City of Desire" is eye-catching and too superficial. There are two main families in the film, one is a family where Jude Law and a Nordic woman remarried, with a traumatized stepdaughter, and the other is an immigrant single-parent family. The mother, Binoche, fled her home with her son because of the war. Immigrant environment, became a small gangster. The two people who didn't have an intersection were connected because of the repeated theft of Qiu's company, so the lives of the two families were broken and entered into each other. Because of the emptiness in his heart, Qiu liked Binoche, a hard-working, kind and warm woman. , and Binoche has not had a man for many years (the man in front of him is a gentleman and sexy), so they had a relationship in order to comfort them (this is actually the purest relationship between men and women, regardless of the source). It can be seen that in Kochi in Europe and the United States, in fact, the emotional pressure of life is very high. A high level of education does not mean a high sense of happiness. Nowadays, I am also experiencing it; the marginalized and immigrants have their difficulties and emotional needs. If the two classes can have more Understanding, equal dialogue, there may be sparks or misfires, just like the lawsuits that appear in the film. Fortunately, with the tolerance of both parties, Qiu stood up bravely. More importantly, Qiu's wife was tolerant and generous. Maybe she also realized that her absence caused Qiu's extramarital affairs. It may not be so lucky in reality. This film has a clever discussion on family relations and social relations (immigration issues) in Europe and the United States through special cases. The atmosphere of the whole film is dull and even a little depressing, but the techniques are old-fashioned and other details are also worthwhile. Playful, like the prostitute who got into the car.
