A work in which the author uses love as a cloak to cover up his realistic critical theme

The author uses love as a cloak to cover up his realistic criticism of a work. Beneath the lavish and extravagant clothes are the weak souls that the aristocrats can't support. The Collapse of the French Nobility is what Lacroix wanted. to express it. The overall rhythm of the film is not bad. The architecture is elegant and the interior is luxurious and the exterior is beautiful. The noble and gorgeous clothes push the complicated Rococo to the extreme. The male and female protagonists Malkovich and Cross showed the acting skills of the stage actors and showed the characters' personalities well. Several of the two opponents' scenes were even more wonderful, and Pfeiffer and Uma also performed well. The only big disappointment is Keanu Reeves. A few scenes seem to be out of touch with the characters, and it seems out of place with other actors who don't feel like communicating with each other, like an extra cast from the street.
