The whole story is actually that a female writer who has a relationship with a bookseller went to the bookseller’s villa to write on vacation in France. After hearing the bookseller mention her daughter, after going to the villa, she began to fall into a reverie and write a suspense inspired by the bookseller’s daughter. There is no Julie nor murder in the French villa. Everything is her novel. The fictional and boring life makes her suppress the inner turbulence and lust.
Several shots show the contrast of the heroine:
1) Grey, black and beige dress
2) The subway meets readers and fans are arrogant and indifferent
3) Go shopping for melon tomatoes and yogurt on holiday
4) After passing the wine place, take a look and leave
5) The waiter in the restaurant recommended her several wines but she refused to order coffee in the end
The fantasy of Julie is actually the true cast of the heroine's heart. Julie is unrestrained, simple, and perverse. The transformation of the heroine after encountering Julie is in contrast with the previous time in the UK:
1) Tired of yogurt breakfast and went to eat sweets
2) Lively to the male service of the coffee shop
3) Start smoking and drinking
4) Drinking and eating foie gras (I didn’t eat julie secretly, I actually bought it myself)
5) When you finally showed the book to the bookseller, the bookseller explained how your style became so ambiguous and abstract and there was no fight.
As for the waiter who died in the restaurant, in fact, the female writer didn’t have anything to do with him. It’s just a desire to kill the waiter. The plot that she thought was going to kill the waiter. The same gardener was another projection of her lust.
Why is Julie in the French villa a fantasy character of the female writer herself? Because in the end she left the bookseller’s office and saw the real bookseller’s daughter with a strange smile that shows that she knows everything.
