Money is the most effective weapon, running through the whole film, maybe it's...

Adapted from a stage play, of course, it is inseparable from the style of the stage play. The whole film consists of two actors and a house, but the director is still very skilled in controlling the camera.

The concept of closure and distortion is everywhere. The writer played by Michael Caine is imprisoned in the space of himself. All his life trajectory is his big house. If you take it out, this room can be regarded as Michael Caine himself. The brain, the whole movie is the writer's own war between heaven and man. An exploration of the ego's natural desires. Bring in maliciously, break moderately, and end safely! Of course, this journey is not over yet, and new excitement is still on the way.

Jude Law's appearance has many lens metaphors, which are not real. The point of view of the observed, the variable being introduced. The more eye-catching in the shot is the composition of him in the cup, the brilliance of the projection, the twisted evil head and so on.

    game of Thrones. Fun classic drama, simple and extraordinary relationship design. Replace the figurative "eye" symbol in the 72 version with surveillance footage + surveillance-like lens scheduling (including close-ups), retaining the original dialogue and settings. A new, confusing, mutual outing is added, which is fascinating, but slightly contradictory. The performance is superb and full of passion, and Jude Law is still too much. Sculptures by British artist Antony Gormley were used. Samsung and a half

    A remake isn't a remake either, and not a single line is the same as the 1972 version, which is Pinter's version. But it consumes the original's considerable comedy
