There are many conjectures about this case in history, but this time it has combined the conjectures of the royal doctor and the Duke Victor, and the spearhead is directed at the royal family. No wonder this unsolved case has not been solved. It turns out that the black hand behind this scene is the biggest ruler. In this way, those who are close to the truth will inevitably die.
In this way, one of the reasons for the prevalence of conspiracy theories lies in the excessive concentration and strength of power. London in the 19th century was as immersed in black ink, and the lives of the lower classes were exploited and squeezed but were unable to appeal. This is the background explained at the beginning of the film. Under such circumstances, the sky of life is always shrouded in shadows. I don't know when or what day a disaster struck, and the ship of life was overturned and shattered. Sure enough, in the movie, Ann, who was in a happy life, suddenly lost everything, her husband and daughter were taken away, and her brain lobe was removed for some reason. The darkness is far from over, and those who had nothing to do with the insider are also confused and torn apart. For audiences who are used to watching bloody carnage scenes, this movie is nothing but a small dish of Zuo Zuoqing porridge, which is nothing, but the real horror is the helplessness and the strength behind the disaster. This is also the case. The reason for the victory of the conspiracy theory.
At this point, this movie and Kafka's "The Trial" have a lot in common. People who have experienced World War II will think "The Trial" is a realist work most of the time, because in that special era, the shadow of death is likely to be over people's heads. Under fascist totalitarianism, human lives are like ants, and there is no way to fight back. It is impossible to say one day when they are suddenly arrested and killed.
This film successfully uses the drama of conspiracy theory, but it is a little bit abrupt in the handling of love. As for the final death, it pushes this fear of concentration of power to the extreme.
