Male and female appearance~

When I saw it, I couldn't help but compare it with Zunlong in "Mr Butterfly". These girls who disguised themselves as women actually don't look very good, but they are extraordinarily attractive. They are open and exude without hesitation. Attractive, make an open gesture, as if to say: "Come on, you can get me."...Real women rarely show such a gesture, they seem to be more inclined to refuse and welcome, set up if they are no barrier. Maybe that's the difference?

There is nothing else to say. The male protagonist is involved in terrorist activities because he does not want his hometown to be occupied by the British, and it is natural for him to let go of the kidnapped soldiers. In the final analysis, it is a story of "how a kind person struggles between ideals and reality". However, the conflicts in human nature are all diluted in the fragrance and beauty in the second half of the film.

Setting up such a male and female character, is it a highlight or a failure? Hard to say. After all, if this setting is removed, although the brushstrokes of rendering human nature will be concentrated together, the entire film will inevitably be buried in countless similar films of "human nature entanglement", and it may not be worth taking a look.
