Generally speaking, the plot is calm, the narrative rhythm is calm and slow, and the handling of the shots is relatively casual, with almost no deliberate special effects processing. As a whole, it feels like just silently telling a ridiculous story. This style is estimated to be the type of different people. In the film, the warmth of the protagonist in the warm wood structure of the motel, the visual contrast with the coldness of the dark and gray sky of St. Petersburg, impressed me deeply.
Finally, I have to praise Paul Giamatti's acting skills. I have seen this Frenchman’s acting skills in other films before, and it may be his ordinary appearance that made his name imprinted in my mind until now. And his performance in the frozen soul reminded me of my naivety.
