Lance Moss's less-discussed work is actually not bad, it still has a strong author label style, but the script is weaker, and the processing of multiple character clues is out of balance, which makes the topic of discussion unable to go deep. The film continues the director's hobby of constructing utopias and setting/breaking rules, and this special group that provides emotional services to the relatives and friends of the deceased is more like an underground organization, loose and not strictly binding. From this point of view, the story first lacks a closed environment structure like "Dog Tooth" or "Lobster".
Secondly, this group has four members. At first they thought it was a few clues that went hand in hand, portraying the interesting experience of each member in the service process, but the result was not satisfactory. The role of nurse gradually increased, and in the end I suspected that the whole story revolved around her. As for the gymnasts and coaches, the opening and closing paragraphs are more like another story. There is enough space to dig out, but it is a pity that they have not been able to show the development process for some reason. The bearded man who played Bruce Lee didn’t write enough dramas. It’s difficult for the audience to fully understand the essence of his role in just a few episodes. He looks like the leader of the group, but he is constantly drifting away from the public characters and even the main plot, except for the last one. Sudden violence scene.
The whole film is presented in a fragmented state, and it is difficult to maintain the coherence of the characters' emotions. After all, this is a film that explores the relationship between real identities and fictional characters. The emotion of the character itself and the "new role" played in the plot can be contrasted to highlight the theme, but it is often that the real/fictional characters are gradually confused, such as the death of another man after the nurse The game at the home of my tennis girl, and the last game between the nurse and my father, made me confused and incomprehensible. Is this the effect that Lansmos wants the audience to see?
