afterthought and memo

It turns out that "The Labyrinth of the Heart" is based on this movie. No wonder the names met. It's an interesting movie to watch, and sometimes I really like the shots directed by the Coen brothers. Many shots can reflect the psychological activities of the characters ~ the narrative method of this film is clear and simple, which is also the advantage of this film. The greatest joy of watching a movie is that it doesn't tell you the whole thing, but allows you to slowly touch the details of the movie so that you can understand the ins and outs of the movie yourself. I explain the story in the form of ABCD, A works in a bar for C, but falls in love with C's wife B. From then on, A and B lived the lives of dog men and women, and were secretly photographed by detective killer D for C to see. C, who couldn't bear it, bought C with money to assassinate the two dog men and women A and B. And D, who is bent on wealth, considers that killing one person is more cost-effective than killing two. He sneaked into AB's residence late at night, stole B's pistol and secretly took AB's bed photo, used the bed photo to forge evidence of their death, successfully defrauded C of money, killed him with B's pistol, and put the blame on B. Key D left without his personal lighter. And A strayed into the murder scene, saw B's pistol, thought B killed C. In order to cover up this matter, A dragged C's body to dispose of it, and found that C was not dead on the way, and C thought that A had bought D at a higher price, and now dealt with his own body. He raised his gun and tried to kill A, but was buried alive by B. After going back, A and B suspect each other, leading B to think that A killed C. D thought that AB was suspected of taking his lighter. So AB shot and killed A when they got together, and B always thought that C was not dead, and came back for revenge. As a result, B killed D by mistake. At the end of the film, D's death method was very strange. He faced the bottom of the leaking washbasin and let the water drop to his face.
