1. The scene in which the male protagonist gets the broken mirror was spoiled in advance, but it did not affect the experience at all, thanks to the successful role of the elevator girl. Candid in love, noble in personality, conscious, but still naive to be deceived.
2. There are three scenes in the scene where the male protagonist drinks booze at the bar. First, the martini olive is placed in a flower to indicate that he drank a lot of booze, and the second is the laughing Santa Claus being sullenly slapped by the male protagonist. Drive away, and the third is to pick up on the girl and blow the paper pipe and the hero is indifferent. Not a single line, but very expressive. I realized that this may be an excellent quality left over from the silent film era; but since the characters can speak, they must maximize the role of language in the limited lines; if they can not speak, they must speak "at least two meanings".
3. Continue the previous point. Any details that arise are responded to. Hidden razor blades, keys to the manager's bathroom, fruitcakes every Christmas... Really thoughtful.
4. Play with the emotions of the audience. Although the film is not short, it is not dull. In the first half, the dignified little people are constantly being squeezed, the cold can't go home, the rain is broken, and the emotions keep going down and accumulating. It wasn't until the male lead got his first promotion that he was emotionally high. But soon, the male protagonist knew the secret of the elevator girl, and then fell into a depression. The second half happened in sequence: the heroine committed suicide (fall), the heroine succeeded in first aid (start), the heroine was suspected of committing suicide twice (fall), the hero and heroine spent two days of friendship (start), the heroine's brother-in-law found fault ( Fall), the male protagonist declares his love (fall), the hero is forced to be promoted twice but falls out of love (fall), the heroine turns back to the shore (fall), the actor is suspected of committing suicide (fall), the hero and heroine celebrate the New Year (start)...
5. The most striking feature of stories is that they magnify information gaps and misunderstandings. The hero doesn't know that the heroine is the boss's lover, the heroine doesn't know that the place for the tryst is the hero's residence, the neighbors don't know that the hero is not a prodigal son, because the hero's protection, the heroine doesn't know the boss's ruthlessness, the most important thing is The heroine does not know the true feelings of the hero.
