i'm afraid

Who is afraid, I am afraid. We all have a Virginia wolf in our hearts, don't we? Anyway, I have.

Lies can also be called games. Totally depends on how you look at it. Isn't life a game? Anxiety pervades everyone's nerves. We need games to relax. Each of the four protagonists in the movie has a big bad wolf in their hearts. They gushed about popping bubble after bubble, and the truth came out, but people weren't happy.

Lies, seemingly invisible. But in fact, lies are the most glorious sounding. Most of us don't have the guts to tell the truth, but we're all willing to lie, don't we?

Lies, we talk so much that in the end we can't tell what the truth is. Terrible? Ridiculous? But life itself is absurd, how can one not be absurd?

Lies give us hope and strength to live, and truth often makes people vulnerable. We've never met someone who never lies, and even white lies aside, everyone still lies.

Lies make people confident, even if it is a candle in the wind, a mirage, the soap bubble will not burst until the last second.

Lies show that you are a person, and the person who thinks he has never told a lie is a big soap bubble.

Lies make us angry, we long for the truth, is that true? The truth is often naked and makes people feel ashamed and completely desperate. Those who want to see the truth often want to see the truth of others, not themselves. Is it because people are inherently evil at the beginning?

There is room for improvement in the cinematography and lighting of the film, and the highlight is the hysterical performance of Elizabeth Taylor. Yes, it is to perform hysterically, because when people lie too much, their words and deeds are often hysterical, especially women. The script of the movie is also good. The theme is clear, that is, the entanglement of lies and truth. But the performance of the male lead is weaker, even inferior to the performance of the supporting actor, and the worst is the performance of the supporting actress. The editing of the film is also good, very clean and decisive. But it must be said that the director's work is still not meticulous, the handling of some clips, and the performance of the actors are still flawed. But the whole film is still worth watching, and worth rewatching. A truly classic film does not lose its charm due to the passage of time, but often travels through time and space, giving people the urge to remake it.

Lie, its opposite is truth, what is truth? The truth is the big bad Virginia wolf, are you afraid? I'm afraid...
