Eight beautiful pictures

Theodore 2022-03-21 09:03:17

This is a movie worth watching. It's the usual French cinematic quirkiness that reminds me of that weird and lovely "Angel Emily." Strange and suspenseful, exaggerated plot, beautiful songs. The most unique thing is that this is a combination of an opera and a movie.
Around the murder of a male protagonist, eight women come on stage and direct a good show. Each of them has little-known secrets and a scandal. I really admire the screenwriter's strong ability to conceive, the plot is so exaggerated, but it can be well connected, and at the same time it makes people feel reasonable.

  • Catherine: Suzon, I forgot one thing. I heard a strange sound. I looked through Augustine's keyhole, and I saw her standing at the mirror with something shiny. I thought nothing of it, but now I'm sure she was sharpening a knife!

    Augustine: You liar! I was holding my mother-of-pearl comb and cleaning it.

    Gaby: At 3:00 am?

    Augustine: Combs never sleep!

  • Suzon: Didn't you say you saw no-one?

    Augustine: I forgot. I went for a drink.

    Gaby: Or a prowl around Marcel's room! What happened?

    Catherine: You'd know if you still slept with Dad.

    Gaby: I'm being judged by my own child!

    Pierrette: That's why I never had any.

    Gaby: Just admit no man ever asked you to.
