The performance of the actors is very good and can be regarded as a model of group performance. Among them, what I admire the most is Chloë Sevigny's acting skills, which are restrained and never ostentatious, but her deep acting skills are exactly in line with Alice's seemingly conservative, old-fashioned, but actually restless mental state in the film. You can learn from young actresses in our country. Have you found an actor with such superb acting skills? I'm afraid it will be difficult.
I don't know if the director himself was born and raised in the UK, but that kind of British black humor is everywhere in the film. Alice has always been a conservative, old-fashioned woman, but at the instigation of her friend Charlotte, she had a one-night stand with someone, but she contracted a venereal disease because of it. Des's pornographic joke about women's breasts in the movie, (true event?), although vulgar, it really makes sense if you listen carefully. It was this Des who, in order to get rid of his ex-girlfriend, actually came up with the lie that he was actually gay. In the movie, Josh and Des seem to be friends, but in the process of competing for Alice, they secretly intrigue and attack each other with strong black humor. All of these are different.
Having said the advantages of this movie, I want to talk about the disadvantages of this movie now, yes, this is a movie with very obvious advantages and disadvantages. The most important disadvantage is that as a "group drama" movie, its structure is too loose, so loose that it lacks a main character line. I know that the director's intention is to use the form of Disco to reflect the living conditions and life trajectories of that group of people in that era. But I always feel that a movie should have a character as the main story line. But our director will talk about this character at one time, and another character at another time, just like a person chatting with you. The monk was confused and didn't know what he was going to say. In the end, my conclusion is that although this movie has all the advantages I mentioned above, it seems to be more suitable for a TV series, because the TV series is an artistic type that has more time and space for our directors to play.
