I've watched a lot of movies recently and this movie is one of them. Eavesdropping on a big conspiracy sounds like a commercial drama about suspenseful reasoning at first glance. After reading it, I found that it focuses more on describing the psychology of the protagonist, more like a literary film. The story is divided into two lines, one is the wiretap story line. The protagonist, Carl, took a list and eavesdropped on the conversation between a man and a woman. The first recorded version is not very clear. In the following plot, it gradually became clear. In addition, through Carl's perspective, we learned the identities of the man and woman. The woman was the wife of the company's top executive, and the man was a staff member of the company. Through the recording content, we learned that the two had an affair. , and agreed on a time and place, it seems to be stealing the meeting. From his point of view, this couple would be victims. But I didn't expect that in the end, these two people turned out to be the perpetrators. The agreed time and place are not for cheating but to kill the company executives. The second line is the life of the protagonist Carl, which revolves around the first line. During this process, the protagonist Carl's character, background, and relationship with others were explained clearly one by one. Carl is a wiretapping expert. He is proficient in this technology of eavesdropping, but at the same time he is afraid of this technology. There are three locks on the door of his house, and there are no personal belongings in the house. It doesn't matter if the house is burned down. He believes that his real property is his key. Her lover knew nothing about him, and after asking a few more personal questions, he left unhappy. You can see that he is sensitive, suspicious, nervous, and closed. Even when repenting to the priest, he always told Zuo about him, never divulging the work he really did. His home is like a hotel, there is no trace of his life, and his true thoughts are never expressed, even his lover doesn't know that he loves her. But he also seems to be a kind-hearted person. Years ago, because of his superb skills, the CEO of a company who was wiretapped killed the only accountant's family who might have leaked the secret. That's why he went to confession. And the object of this eavesdropping, the fear in his voice was heard by him, and they might be killed. This left Carl very hesitant and struggling whether to hand over the tape to the client. After the tape was stolen, he ran to the hotel to eavesdrop. This kindness also reflects his weakness to some extent. The weakness of his heart and the powerlessness of his actions made him even more pathetic. Although the professional industry is respected, his heart is desolate. The true inner island, neither letting others in, nor going out automatically. At the end of the story, the man and woman who were eavesdropped threatened him through his hidden phone number and would keep following him in the future. Carl then demolished the entire home. in his dismantling When the statue of Mary, I think his faith in God also collapsed. The final shot is shocking, with Carl sitting on a pile of ruins blowing the sax. This completely corresponds to his inner world. This movie is still pretty heavy after watching it. It is more like a literary film than a commercial film. On the surface, it was the wiretapping that led to his tragedy. But I think it is essentially the result of his inner closure and weakness. Eavesdropping on this job intensified only.
