Watching the whole movie, you can't help but think of Lost in Translation. Sophia really likes middle-aged movie stars who have lost their eyes and don't know where to go. They used to be Bill Murray and now Dorrff. The two of them sat beside the bed with empty eyes. There are too many scenes from "Lost in Translation" in the film: two indifferent people stand in front of the camera and smirk sweetly; under the bombardment of the unfamiliar language, the male protagonist is equally at a loss; at the end of the film, under the roar of a huge helicopter , barely heard a word from the hero to his daughter, reminiscent of Bill's whispers to Scarlet. Then again, there are those boring long shots, precious dialogues, and little dramatic conflicts. The two films are so similar, no wonder the Hong Kong media translated the film as "lost somewhere".
However, this is a bolder film. Sophia dared to use the same camera to shoot for a few minutes, filming two people's slow conversations for a few minutes, using the most natural lighting, and the most natural sound effects (when dancing pole dancing, stab The stinging voice has to say that it affects the sexy index, but it is extremely real). In several scenes where emotions can completely explode, the director has always been calm and restrained, and with an absolutely delicate female perspective, he has discovered emotional moments that are difficult for men to find.
