In fact, I started to feel sad when I saw the old man constantly playing chess with his second personality. The problem was that in this, the melodious saxophone music and the beautiful sunset and twilight were constantly interspersed. After thinking about it carefully, I thought, is this when the appreciation of Chinese ancient poetry in high school is based on the joyful scene and the sadness?
At the end of the film, the old man defeated the old man in front of him through a trick (in the split), laughing at his own wisdom in the twilight, but the director specially added a long shot, which is very meaningful. In film art, long shots generally represent meaningful or hesitant words, which are easy to give people a deep impression of deeper connotations.
Here, I think the director has really passed the long shot at the end to complete this wonderful transformation from 4 minutes of comedy to sadness in the last 10 seconds.
