A classic little film that grabs the heart

Because I haven't read the original, I can't empathize with those who clamor for the charm of the original.

A great performance akin to a play. In every line of wonderful dialogue, you can't predict which line will be a lie. The actor who is the lover has a wonderful battle of wits with the old best-selling author...
Many people commented on the sexual orientation of the lover, but in my opinion, everything is acting, because all the words and expressions It's for a fight...
At first you might think that the lover is dead, and the detective is a real detective... But when everything turns out, the lover's naughty revenge makes you think it's all the wits of jealous men game, and pondering which of their words is true and which is false, the gunshot at the end of the credits ends it all...
though it looks like the lover is dead. I still think it's an open ending...because maybe this shot could still be the original "blank", who knows what happened between them? In such a game where humor is actually dangerous, do human nature, dignity, and life still have meaning?

    A one-act play for two people. The two main characters are quite related. Michael Caine's "Alpha" and "Footprints" later remakes starred Jude Law. The role of Jude Law in this film is that of Michael Caine.

    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
