Sex, Lies, and Videotape

I can't believe I'd find such a good film.
A truly calming film .
Quiet thinking
, not as sad or resentful

. Ann persistently asks,
tries to touch the deepest wound,
Graham avoids resistance
, tries to hide in the deepest self-preservation.

There are always problems
that clearly feel their existence,
even live in them,
but deliberately ignore it
and develop deformed habits.
Sickly attached

, Ann puts his hand lightly on Graham's shoulder and
tries to break that last defense
. The result of the attempt
is unknown
. The most courageous thing is to try

. Those are all stubborn wounds.
Only honesty can heal the possibility.

Soderbergh made this
scene beautifully
. Be careful
as if for a nascent ceremony,
a real recognition rather than a cowardly perfunctory

so-called "break and stand up"
When you feel that life is really cornered, the
road will still come out.
If the heart is still loyal , only when you
go out
can you get real happiness

    The uniqueness of the film is that it uses video tape to dissect the true hearts of modern people, especially the precariousness of middle-class families. In the film, the two men and two women have their own concerns. Sex and lies are the cover for their anxiety. The scenes and large dialogues convey the most nuanced things in emotion, and the male protagonist is well-chosen, which has a fatal attraction.

    The story of seeing the soul through erotica. There are a few scenes that are very ingenious. The schedule of the scene where the male and female protagonists exchange their quiz identities is almost perfect, the lines are simple and sharp, and the rounds are well written. Soderbergh is really good, and the transition from independent films to commercial films is also smooth, more versatile.

    Graham: I thought about what you would look like having an orgasm.

    Ann: I'd like to know what I look like havin' an orgasm.
