The three letters, cast aside the veneer of absurd irony, strip away the topics of anti-war, civil rights, anti-poverty, homosexuality, media power, bureaucracy, etc., as well as the triviality, madness and confusion in family, marriage and social relations in the 1970s, showing An "abnormal" robber in a "normal" society possesses universal humanity. Five stars are given to this film, which has almost fixed scenes like a drama, bizarre turning events, and hilarious black humor. It is not limited to the background of the 1970s. The thinking of the social and human environment and the search for a way out. Real events are always more bizarre and heavier than fictional ones. Hope more people will not miss this good movie.
