The narrative, as well as the structure, is notoriously unique. In addition, it is a deeply and caring film. Some films always show the director's profound concern and thinking about society under the seemingly calm narrative of real life, such as Almodóvar's concern for Spanish women, such as Milk Manchevsky here. But the truth does not reduce the plot and watchability of the film, which is what they have in common. If Almodóvar expresses in the film the compliments and declarations of the unique qualities of women living in special circumstances (and Spanish society), such as tenacity, maternal love, sacrifice, forbearance, bravery, etc., then Manchefs The foundation is a deep attack and opposition to the war and violence of the wider country, nation, and human beings. Perhaps, a director who can master a unique technique and style of his own and can perform skillfully can basically be regarded as excellent, because uniqueness is one of the important criteria for distinguishing elites from ordinary people; however, if you want to distinguish masters or not , then it depends on who among these elites pays more attention to and reflects on society, and who can examine the world and the entire human civilization from a higher perspective. Under this premise, then, Manchevsky can be regarded as a master, even if I have only seen one of his works so far.

Words, faces, and photos are just three symbols. Race, religion, and war are just three backgrounds. The past, present, and future have formed a circle. Love became the catalyst of death. It is clearer and more metaphorical than the circular narrative structure of "Pulp Fiction".
