The sound and light, the script, the actors, the characters, and the techniques are all very good. The music in the movie is great, most of the scenes are full screen music + footage, it's beautiful.
Most of the time, the key plots are revealed only through the camera and flashbacks. Before the final truth, the dialogue is only designed to allow the plot to develop. It is very simple. As for Elena's past and purpose, the audience needs to think about it and keep guessing. Verification, hehe, typical thriller with good pacing. When you guessed that it was close to ten, the final interrogation made you discover that there was another truth and all the ins and outs were just like that.
Giuseppe Tornatore said that he chose this small town in northern Italy for this film, because this town has a special mysterious feeling, such as tall classical buildings, beautiful lion head fountains in the streets, and circular staircases...
He also said, In fact, everyone in the film is autistic. Think it does.
Elena, who used to be a prostitute, was tortured and dug up her lover's body in a garbage dump. For Renault's only hope, she stabbed (injured) the bald villain and escaped from the magic kiln. One of the names (actually derived from the necklace on the neck of the bald head), lonely and persistent, at all costs, working hard and using any means, to get close to that wealthy family of three, to get close to their daughter. It is the daughter that Elena identified, the ninth daughter in 12 years. She is barren due to the torment of her career for more than a decade, and this is her last child, the daughter of her and Reno. For this purpose, she is willing to do everything, and she has done everything, and finally...
Because when she fled, she took the bald head's money, was followed and beaten by the bald head and his people, and she almost lost her life. But I don't understand why the bald head and his accomplices want to kill the mistress? Is it just planting? It's not necessary, didn't the bald head kill Elena with his own hands? After forcing Elena to take out the money, he would patiently wait for the police to deal with Elena? I don't think the hostess was killed by Elena. Subjectively Elena said that she knew that the little girl's future could not be given to her, and she needed the couple to exercise parental rights for him; objectively, there was a scene where she was Touching her red shoe, this shot seems to be the director telling us that the shoe was stolen.
I personally thought the most frightening scene was when the old aunt blinked, turned her head slowly, and asked fiercely why you kept asking me to sign? ...creepy. (Actually, it was to save money for the little girl's account, and to save the stolen money, which she later hid in a flower pot.)
The ending is a reunion-style ending, and it is recommended that female viewers who are afraid should stick to it.
In addition, the little girl is very cute and very cute.
