Morton, played by Rampling, can be said to have been imprisoned from the beginning, not her career, but her sense of independence as an ordinary woman. She has to take care of her aging father by herself as a single parent. She had to drink a glass of whisky early in the morning. She was a mistress when facing the boss of the publishing house, john. She was as cautious as a man, and the so-called performance of being behind bars is that she has no inspiration. In the past, john liked herself instead of herself. The kind of blood and murder that she likes fills her novels. She doesn't want to continue writing like this, in fact, she doesn't want to continue living like this.
So, when john said that there was a secluded villa in the French countryside for her to look for inspiration, she did not agree immediately, but made up her mind when she went home and saw her predicament again, so she set foot on a small trip from London to France. train.
The combination of fiction and reality is a typical feature of Ozon movies, and it is also something we can learn when we break through the censorship, and even when we discuss the suspense of the story structure itself. While everyone was wondering when Morton's novels began, I was delighted by the self that Morton found in this villa in this small town in France. Some things cannot be perceived in the environment. This is why before the epidemic, I especially liked to go abroad to find inspiration. It may also be because I haven't gone abroad for several years, and my mood has been getting more and more depressed...
Morton's phone call to my father and john just arrived, and I regarded it as the dividing line for Morton to enter the novel state, because after the phone call, Morton began to type and type like a robot. John mentioned that he didn't come to France because he wanted to spend the weekend with his daughter in England, and that's how Morton's daughter appeared in Morton's imagination, whether it was the handsome boy from Lanster or the gardener and repairer Matthew. , are references to real characters created by Morton, and julie is the appearance of the young and beautiful girl she imagined, because it is completely different from the julia who finally appeared in john's office. And julie's description of her mother in the novel, and the lingering of men such as julie and Lanster are actually all conjured up by Morton in his mind, and of course, some of them refer to the hostess who stayed in that uninhabited villa for a long time. Documents in the room that were not seen by john. A swimming pool love murder case came into being, and this love murder case was compared with the bloody violence of the previous detective Dewey. The suspense is no longer the focus, and how the ascetic feelings break through themselves and seek solutions has become the theme of the new novel. Until the imaginary julie left the villa to work in other cities, the protagonist of the novel left, and the novel came to an end.
The film is very good to follow up, because the combination of reality and reality is just right, I especially want to pursue what will happen to Morton when he arrives at the villa? What will the arrival of this daughter bring? Is there really a murder case? How did they deal with it? How did they deal with the police? Until the end, when Morton took the signed pool to John, the publishing house owner, did he realize that everything was fiction, but everything was so real. Then, when Morton came out and met Julia, the daughter of the publishing house owner, she was no longer julie. Morton stared outside the door and realized that the previous story was unreal. Then another shot turned to Morton wearing the villa's hostess. When the red shirt came off and waved goodbye to julie and julia, it suddenly dawned on me that Morton was waving goodbye to julie in the novel, and at the same time he was waving goodbye to julia, the daughter of john, the inspiration source. Saying goodbye to john's self-incarcerated self, relying on john's judgment on publishing, awakens women's independent self-awareness. Involuntarily gave Ozon a round of applause...
