But in the film, we see more of the plastic surgeon Robert's heart, not Bella's (Vincent) heart. When Vincent was immersed in tailoring clothes, I didn't even know he was the protagonist. , I thought it was an incidental story, the process of Vincent being turned into Bella was undoubtedly painful, and his expression was the dense letters that covered the wall like needles on his skin. There is a painting where the head is put into the house and the body is naked, the female body - that's Vincent's pain - being turned into a woman without knowing it, and watching. The person (mainly doctor Robert) only saw her (his) body but could not see her (his) expression and heart.
In this way, is it logical for Robert to fall in love with Bella (Vincent)?
Don't forget that the film begins with Bella (Vincent) pleading with Robert: "Can't we live together? Like normal couples, under the same roof?" Robert gave him a look of disgust. What exactly is Bella (Vincent)? First, he is Vincent, the criminal who raped Robert's daughter---the fact of rape is not stated in the film, even if it is stated, Robert has no right to conduct moral trial and execution of the sentence; La, it's Robert's test subject and transgender - what scientist would fall in love with a rat-like test subject? And transgender is only an appearance, Robert did not inject estrogen. Third, she is a woman who looks exactly like Robert's wife——Robert secretly zoomed in on his face. It is a memory of his wife. Although his wife was burned on the way to betray him, Robert still took care of her carefully. her? Fourth, she is Bella, a woman!
So, how did Robert go from hating Vincent with revenge to falling in love with Bella? It should be the moment Vincent was identified as the real woman Bella - yes, that was the moment when Robert's half-brother raped Bella (Vincent), Robert Seeing all this, all kinds of complex and subtle emotions became clear to Bella - a woman, an independent woman. Because of sex reassignment surgery, Vincent was turned into Bella, thinking that it was similar to the passive sex of sex reassignment surgery, and was further transformed into a woman Bella.
That, only in Robert's view. The real Vincent, under the gorgeous skin, has never changed.
