For the first time, I felt that scars can be so beautiful. It seems that the charm of the character's experience and inner strength far exceeds the attractiveness of a good skin. Scars can also serve as the perfect adornment to one's charm.

The blonde sister and the black-haired sister, as half-sisters, are shaped into different temperaments due to different growth environments. One is rough and melancholy, pretending to be cold, and the other is gentle and well-informed. What kind of beauty is more attractive? It's like a lady from a family and a wild girl from the countryside, the two distinct modalities are more moving?

My mind is often seduced by the dignified and sweet-looking phantoms who are good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. In fact, the country girls who can enter the hall, can pick up birds’ eggs, can tell meat jokes, can hook up with boys, and laugh rudely are not very impressive. Joyful, simple and sincere, unrestrained and vigorous vitality is more natural and pleasant than the refined, tame, and even a little artificial elegance.

The choice and shaping of the characters are indeed inseparable from the growth environment.

When the boss in the film finally revealed the truth to the black-haired sister, the shock to the audience was minimal. If the murderous boss had more pity and pain for his daughter, the character's performance would be more full.

That Terminator-like robot is really wonderful, simple-minded and rude, the love he gave you is clearly deep and pure, it is the most beautiful treasure in the world, but it has such an evil beheading, unreasonable and unreasonable. I love and fear in my heart, as if it is a black apple that tastes extraordinarily sweet, but has a terrifying appearance, and is even poisonous. It's so wonderful, so delicious, the deformed and extreme love will inevitably bring harm to the loved one, but it is pure like a flawless crystal, and you have to feel it.

Doesn't the boss's plan to dehumanize also represent some kind of extreme personality madness? There is something admirable about this personality.
