An old man and a young man.
There is also a betrayal wife in the middle.
One of the two men is gay.
It doesn't get any more nuanced than this.
However, the entire story takes place between two men and inside a building.
Old men lose their wives, young men get betrayed wives.
The old man teased the young man.
The young man made fun of the old man again in revenge.
In this one accidentally discovered the old man's secret. Old men kill young men.
The insignificant wife was on her way by car.

This is a completely man's world, and even though the woman who is the agent often appears in the discussion here, she is always just a tool for the contest between men.

Sadness, ecstasy, lies, temptation, cover-up...

The battle between people is really wonderful.

    Pinter's script guarantees that the film will perform well, even if it falls short in other respects. The so-called book of a play is probably like this.

    It's true and false, false and true, I really like the close-up shots of the beard scum with such texture, plus the expression of the acting school, it's fun! Xiao Luo's gorgeous chin~~ Stop acting like a spoiled child, it's totally looking for abuse! Itching. . . Which kind person gave me the 1972 edition ah~~~

  • Milo Tindle: I'm so glad you like my mind. Not many people like my mind. Quite a few people like my body... but i can't think of anyone who likes my mind.
