Sure enough, the aesthetics of the great director, as well as various shots, are still online. It seemed that Valentine's Day or 520 must-sees were written somewhere before, and I thought it was a comedy, but how could a Keith movie be a comedy? Voyeurism is a major theme of this film, but finding such elements of voyeurism or windows is quite common in Kee's films. For example, in "Blue", the heroine sees the old grandma throw the bottle where it is displayed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and "Blue" In "White", the male protagonist sees the female protagonist's show of love by the window outside the prison, and the old male protagonist of "Red" looks out the window and sees the scene where his girlfriend is having an affair with someone else, and here, the prying eyes are passed through the glasses. form to the fullest.
But even peeping, this is pure love and naive, and even a little moving. It may also be that the 19-year-old male protagonist's yearning for love is very pure, and this innocence is also accompanied by a certain appreciation, and at the same time a little bit. Playful, for example, he will stuff her with flyers hoping to see her again, interrupt their appointment by calling the gas staff to come to the door, and take the initiative to become a dairy worker just to see her more often. It's just that this appreciation gradually brought the two closer, and then forced the boy to accept that she was a bad woman. Even on that day, he happily pulled the milk cart around because she promised to go to the cafe to eat ice cream. The scene was incredible. Then the confession scene is also very beautiful. With the red window, I found that the director really uses the red element very well, whether it is in twin flowers, red, or in love short films.
"I love you/Love doesn't exist/It's not like that/Do you want to kiss me?/No/You, do you want to sleep with me?/No/So what do you want? /I don't want anything ."
It's a pity that the heroine still doesn't understand love, and still hurts him. Her teasing and humiliation to him made him cut his veins and commit suicide. His love for her was trampled on by the client and was not ashamed by the client. The pain of the cut pulse and premature ejaculation, although there is no crying, the pain shown is more sad than crying.
Although this is a short film about love, it is more about secret love, but this kind of secret love is different from "Letter from a Strange Woman". The former is of appreciation and empathy, because the heroine is crying and wants to be personally It hurts herself to feel her cry; the latter is something of a deification, and she doesn't really want to understand the writer.
In general, I think this movie has a strong storytelling among Kee's movies, and it is relatively easy to understand the movie.
