Deep in woody's extremely pessimistic and nihilistic satirical absurd comedy

Two themes commonly used by Woody of Love and Death are perfectly embodied in this dramatic story. Sonja wanders between love and non-love, but he is almost never happy. The villagers celebrate the festival with dance, but Boris dances with death toward the love of death. Suffering or not loving is also a very effective way to reduce expenses

Maybe love is the same as death. People will eventually be executed and tortured by love for a crime they have never committed.

Woody’s 90-minute views on love and death can be said clearly in a few words, but can clearly feel the empty emptiness

Woody and Diane's great part saw Woody Allen Diane Keaton at the beginning of the film, and I knew it was not bad?

    Russian cinema and Bergman. Chekhov, War and Peace, Anna Karenina, Dostoevsky, etc. The big ladies in Russian novels and movies are all very pure, but they are actually flying up and down. This is what Diane Keaton satirized.

    I started to engage with Dostoevsky again... How could such a beautiful and intellectual woman as Diane Keaton follow the pirate ship 5d... Cause my impression of this woman began to develop in a strange direction. The separate exposition and confrontation space, the pessimistic philosophy of 5d, Bergman, and the tirade of certain passages for comic effect, plus the occasional neurotic monologue, make the whole film seem cluttered

    Woman hygiene class: Goodbye. I hope you had a good time!

    Doctor: You have a social disease! If you don't treat it you'll go blind! Or insane!
