The Blizzard Villa mode is a very classic type of suspense, and "Eight Beauties" is also a standard Blizzard Villa. The difference is that the eight main characters in it are all women, and it also adds innovative singing and dancing elements.
The opening is very classic. It is Christmas in the winter. The family is going home for a reunion. The snow outside is confused. The characters appear one after another, and the interpersonal relationships between them are revealed step by step through the dialogue between them. Then the deceased is found, and the deceased is apparently murdered, but the murderer is unknown. People tried to get help from the police, only to find that the roads were blocked by heavy snow, the telephone lines were cut, and they were completely cut off from the outside world.
Then, they were suspicious of each other, and at the same time, someone came out to string up clues. What everyone did that night, what everyone saw, everyone's relationship with the dead, everyone's reaction in the present. In the end, it turns out that things are far more complicated than expected, and everyone seems to have enough motives to kill. The plot unfolds in the narrow space of the room, the logic is constantly clear, but new problems emerge. The confessions complement each other or contradict each other. Contradictions and conflicts erupt in the narrow space, and the plot is ups and downs and exciting. In the end, the truth is revealed and the climax is reached. The last piece of the lost puzzle is filled, forming a terrifying picture of human nature and good and evil.
This type of film generally requires less investment, and the development of the plot depends on the acting skills of the actors. The role of scenery and costumes is particularly important. An excellent script is the key to the success of this type of film. In "Beautiful Pictures", the main characters are the eldest daughter of the deceased, the youngest daughter of the deceased, the wife of the deceased, the mother-in-law of the deceased, the sister of the wife of the deceased, the sister of the deceased, and the maid and maid of the deceased's house. The internal relationship of the family is extraordinarily complicated. The eldest daughter of the deceased is not the deceased's biological child. She is the child of the deceased's wife and another man. The eldest daughter of the deceased is pregnant, but the child of her adoptive father is the child of the deceased; the youngest daughter of the deceased Innocent and kind, but witnessing scenes of ugliness happening in front of her eyes; the wife of the deceased did not love the deceased, she was unforgettable about the previous man, and recently planned to run away with a colleague of the deceased; the deceased's sister was bisexual, she was in She fell in love with a man, who was actually the colleague of the deceased, who was about to elope with the deceased's wife, who also maintained an ambiguous relationship with the maid at the deceased's house, and finally kissed the deceased's wife; the deceased's wife The younger sister is an old maid, she longs for love but disdains it, loves to read love novels but is conservative on the surface, she also loves the deceased in private; the deceased's maid loves the deceased's sister; Inappropriate relationships; the deceased's mother-in-law had murdered her husband, she didn't love him at all, and was sick of her life.
The rhythm of "Beautiful Pictures" is moderately controlled, the colors of the costume design are bright, and the sense of indoor space is not strong. The outdoor set at the beginning is a bit fake, and the picture of eight flowers is not bad. The actors have excellent acting skills, and they have assembled various French actresses, and the lineup is gorgeous. The style is unusual, but far from bizarre. It can be said that it is a film that innovates in the original routine but does not dig deep enough. It is worth watching. The title of the film is "Eight Beauties", which is very ironic. The human nature behind the beauty is the most real.
