Speaking of the film, almost all It's a gloomy feeling. The male protagonist’s home, the factory where he works, the house of the prostitute, the airport cafe at midnight, and the subway tunnel entered during the escape, all the scenes are gloomy. Bright, starting from the flashlight illuminating the male lead, the male lead finally knows the truth, and then the tone of the film turns brighter. The film began to use the gloom to imply that people thought it was suspenseful. In fact, it implied the gloom in the heart of the male protagonist. This is actually a good idea, but it's a bit too simple... After
watching the entire movie, I actually found that the plot is very simple, just one The story of neurosis. At the beginning, the protagonist was so thin that people knew he had a problem. Everyone was asking him if he was unwell, what happened, whether it was drug use or cancer. Colleagues, bosses, prostitutes, and coffee shop clerk were all asking, male The Lord is always evasive. The host is a machine tool operator. He always leaves in a small truck after get off work, and does not attend the gatherings of his colleagues (he attended before he got thinner). He only talks with the prostitutes who help, and flirts with the female coffee shop assistants. Take her and her son to the playground. In fact, the reason why he is thin is that he has not slept for a year and he cannot sleep. Later, he saw a colleague who was denied existence by others. Due to the interference of this colleague, he injured another colleague and lost his arm. He felt that someone was framing him. He went to check the colleague whom no one had seen before, but found that, This man’s car was registered under his own name, and suddenly there was bleeding in the refrigerator, someone left a strange note, and there was no female clerk in the coffee shop at the airport. He thought everything was a prostitute’s ex-husband who was taking revenge on him. In the end, he found that the non-existent colleague had brought the son of a coffee shop clerk into his home. He immediately went home and killed the colleague, only to find that the child was missing. He wrapped the corpse in a carpet to destroy the evidence, only to find that there was no corpse at all, only the carpet. He finally remembered the truth of everything...
A year ago, the very fat male protagonist at that time drove through a red light and hit and killed a little boy. He saw the child's mother crying while holding the corpse (the mother was a coffee shop clerk), and he drove away. From that day on, he couldn't sleep anymore, and everything was just an illusion. The non-existent colleagues did not exist. The coffee shop clerk was also made up by himself. The prostitutes did not have any ex-husband harassment at all. Everything was an illusion.. The male lead came to the police station, surrendered, and then in the classroom, he finally closed his eyes and fell asleep... The
biggest highlight of the movie is Bell. First he physically made himself skinny and skinny. It was a big sacrifice and exhaustion. Stiletto is also good.
