The five main characters of the next incident appeared one after another, explaining the meaning of the attic scene and the general relationship and character of the five people, and the secrets about themselves that they planned around the attic gradually surfaced. Everyone began to question each other, and no one knew who was the real culprit, just as the cross-examination by the police at the beginning was generally confusing.
The plot advances in an orderly manner, and the suspenseful announcements are like squeezing toothpaste. On the surface of the attic, the attic is a place for affair provided by the architect Vincent to his friends. In fact, it symbolizes a hotbed for men to indulge in selfish desires and nurture their inner self. This hotbed seems to be secret and safe. It may not be broken by their wives, but it will Because of their own inner sins, they didn't break themselves. Just as Pian Zhongsen suddenly realized that it was his wives who knew it, and Luke stood up and said, "It was my friends who found it."
It can be seen from the flashbacks of everyone that the five people have different attitudes towards selfish desires.
The instigator is undoubtedly the architect Vincent. His humorous and humorous conversations on social occasions and his steady humor in picking up girls show that he has a deep understanding of this way. On the one hand, he is trying his best to maintain family relations while being prosperous. Activities, typical beasts in costumes, end up being cocooned and bound by themselves. Characterized as a mental and physical double derailment.
Psychiatrist Chris is decent and willing to help others, but he is also in emotional trouble. He has a certain sense of responsibility but the unsatisfactory marriage life also drives him to pursue true love. Due to Vincent’s secret manipulation, he falls into a complex and fruitless true relationship. Later, Vincent was willing to join the frame only when he really had evidence of presence. He was a principled person. He was the same as the reversal at the end. Although the motivation may be stupid and stiff, he was the only one. The whitewashed character. The same mental and physical derailment, but he was designed.
Chris' cousin, Philip, is grumpy and drugged, and has deep feelings for his family, but he has a serious tendency to violence. He belongs to a simple and straightforward type. This is also confirmed by the cruelty of beating prostitutes and cutting his wrists when designing to frame Vincent. This role appears. At the latest, there are fewer scenes restricted by personality. Although he didn't deal with his wife, it was just a physical derailment.
Software engineer Manix eats, drinks and prostitutes and bets, but he is sincere about his wife (strict wife control), because the "affect" at a party with Vincent and Luke made him strained with his wife, and he was very guilty to find The polite eldest brother Vincent told him that he also gave him an opportunity. It can be said that he paid the price for his failure to resist the temptation, and finally reconciled with his wife also showed his determination to turn back the prodigal son. Characterized as physical derailment.
Finally, there is Luke, the core character who caused the two reversals of the plot. Although all the characters are heavily facialized, this character is also the most brilliant, cowardly, introverted and not good at expressing. There is something unknown under the glasses. Dark, there are very few flashbacks about himself in the film. The few flashbacks that appear in the flashbacks of others are also shown as a good husband and a good person. If there is no first reversal in the middle, his suspicion has been maximized. When the reversal appeared, although his ugly appearance was abomination, he seemed to get rid of the suspicion and focused the contradiction on Vincent and successfully passed on to Vincent to facilitate the implementation of the design framing. The second reversal occurred when the police questioned the "female corpse" "I was not dead at the time, and whether he died because of his slaughter was homicide, because Chris' conscience returned. The dispute after returning to the attic allowed Luke's twisted psychology of love and hatred to be fully revealed (into his flashback), The ending of the fall also corresponds to the opening of the film. The typical of mental derailment (this shows that the hidden and inexhaustible erotic desires will plant the seeds of hatred in this type of personality when they cannot be satisfied. The seemingly harmless people may become the craziest and scariest. people).
Recalling the whole scene of blame, during the police investigation (which is also a bureau set up by friends), Vincent deceived Vincent into taking sleeping pills and taking sleeping pills at the same time because of a relationship with his lover. They were forced to commit suicide on the bed. In Vincent’s confession, he only had a relationship with his lover, but he was framed by his friends and became a victim of the incident. In the statements of his friends, each of them was a victim of the incident. The irrelevant people in the attic are those who have the keys because of their friends but have almost never been there. Everyone has proof of their alibi at the time of the incident; imagine if the female corpse is resurrected, it will probably say, Ke Qi fainted, and then vaguely felt pain in his wrist in the coma, as if being cut open, gradually losing consciousness and dying." So far, the conspiracy was revealed.
However, the movie is not in this style, nor has the police investigation risen to the main line. Instead, it revolves around the relationship between the five characters. It uses a single reversal to confuse the audience, and a double reversal to expose the truth. The police killed him. Discovery and Chris's repentance made the end, I have to say that this technique has its own brilliance.
The role of wife and lover in the film promotes the development of the plot. It may be possible to interpret the attitude that some wives should show to their husband's derailment, but in general this is a masculine work. Throughout the film, the theme is men’s desires, and the structure is suspected to be Rashomon. If I say any emotional dissatisfaction with the film, it is probably not because of the selfish desires of my friends who were kidnapped by Vincent (the evil of human nature is not forgiven because of objective inducements), but the self-imposed Luo Sheng The door was kidnapped by the script during the formation process T_T
