My personal opinion is that the real protagonist is the girl watching TV, she imagines herself as the actress who plays on high in blue tomorrow, and then two other roles extend from that actress (of course, all roles are It was imagined by the girl), at the end of the film, the actress walked into the girl's room after killing her husband and kissed her, suggesting that the two "Is" merged into one, and the messy imagination ended. After that, the girl ran into another room and hugged her husband, and the two reconciled, suggesting that the fear in the girl's heart that her husband (the women imagined by the girls in the film and their husbands are all the same person) has been resolved.
This film gives me the feeling that it is very chaotic and complicated. In the fragmented plot, I, like the protagonist, stumbled forward in the separated time and scene. When we hesitated among one possibility, another possibility has been imagined by the girl manufactured. The actress keeps asking people: "Have you seen me before?" In fact, it means that she is lost in the empire she built. She keeps jumping in and out of the girl's imaginary identities, fear and revenge. , murder after another ran into the girl's dark imagination. The self-centred fabrication, catalyzed by fear, intensifies and finally unravels before it collapses, turning the plot around. Sometimes illusory fear creeps into reality, and then it becomes more real than reality. The director uses dim lighting and deja vu scenes to take us into the dark inner world of the protagonist, and at the same time blur the boundaries between reality and fantasy.
What is the difference between you yesterday, today, and tomorrow, can you predict who you will be tomorrow, and who you are now is just one of all possibilities. When you feel anxious about real life, "inner demons" will arise, whether to fall into endless fantasy and escape, or face reality, this is a question that this film throws us.
