After watching it, the first thing I think about is why I am keen on this type of film (maybe I can't use the word "craving", but I can accept it. Thrilling and eye-catching stuff. And when you look at these kinds of films, it's like looking at "The Handmaid", which will be mentioned later). It's a little bloody, a little extreme, a little weird, a little bit inexplicable at times, a little bit unreasonable at times... just like the world around us. Perhaps it is only when the artists represent death that you can see true humanity. This kind of feeling makes me a little interested and boosted my spirit. After watching it, I feel sad, relieved, and even sleep becomes more stable.
The maid, originally a soul who died because of a man's desire, appeared in the house, and the person who looked at her showed a different appearance because of the different moods of the people who looked at her. When a lustful host looks at her, she is a sexy beauty with a graceful figure and full of temptation. When a woman looks at her, she is an old lady who is blind in one left eye. Therefore, without exception, all hostess will hire her, and most male hosts feel the unavoidable temptation at first. Until the male host "seduced" her, from the superficial resistance to the final indifference from the heart, without the slightest desire. She also "turned" into an old lady who was blind with her left eye in front of him, said "you finally see the essence of things" to the male protagonist and left. In fact, nothing in the world is good or evil, there is no beauty or ugliness, everything is in the human heart.
Tate, who once killed 15 students before his death, was surrounded by police until his room was surrounded by police, and his mother cried out in grief outside the door, hoping that he would give up his resistance and live. However, at that time, he had despaired of the world and had no regrets for what he had done. His life was worthless to him at that moment. But after he fell in love with V, in fact, if V died in this house, he would never be separated from him, but why did he, who had lost all expectations of the world, hope that V would not hurt himself and live well? ? He punished all those who could harm her, and even went on to kill her. After seeing her swallowing sleeping pills, he dragged her into the bathtub in grief, hoping to make her spit out what took her life, and he finally cried in despair. Is the shouting for oneself, for V, or for this world where everything is uncontrollable, unpredictable, unretainable, ungraspable...
Is this a dark film? Or most of us are deliberately escaping the real cruelty of this world. Or we know they exist, but we are reluctant to mention them. When we mention them, we only feel sadness and powerlessness, but lack a kind of calmness to face them.
