I haven't watched the disc for a while, and I try to watch it occasionally, but I still can't watch it. But today I finally finished watching a movie, online.
A movie I liked very much was called "The Barber's Man". I watched it many times, and I always watched it with a smile. Later, I found another film starring a male lead, but I was greatly disappointed. But I never tried to search for other films by director Battis Legon, and I didn't expect to come across it by accident, um, fate.
The plot of "Intimate Stranger" is simple: a young woman who seeks help from a psychiatrist finds the wrong room and confides in an accountant about her hidden troubles. In the process of listening, the accountant began to care about the woman who was at a loss in the face of life's predicament. Later, she gradually changed from caring and helping to letting herself be overwhelmed... Later, when the woman finally found a way to continue her life After living in a distant place, the accountants finally found this woman after habitual hesitation and continued their peculiar spiritual treatment, but the narrator and the listener changed their positions...
This kind of plot is really simple, but It contains several secret dreams of single men. For example, Sister Lin and the snail girl or the Seven Fairies fell from the sky, and Pygmalion fell in love with the statue girl he created, and even the story of Snow White can be touched a little.
In the plot development of the movie, in addition to the woman's confession and her fascination with the confession itself, you can also see the changes that the confession brought her. While the accountant gradually became aware of his own life and environment in the process of listening and listening, he also gradually made changes to his own life and environment bit by bit because of the eyes of women.
There is an interesting detail. After the woman inadvertently asked him why he always wore a tie in a serious manner, he started to wear a tie at work, but when he subconsciously wanted to keep a distance from the woman, he tie again. Wearing a very standard tie. When the woman called him to say goodbye to him and said that he was going to start a new life in a distant place, he was well-dressed, but when the woman got his message and arrived at his new office in the city where the woman was located, his chest was full of It's empty...
There is basically no ambiguous scene in this film, but in the women's talk and the men's listening, the faint desire and affection have a unique flavor, which is enough to make the viewer smile...
It seems that it is necessary to collect other works of Batis Legon to have a look. Batis Legon is also translated as Patrice Leconte. This gentleman is very much in my heart, and I hereby commend it.
