This film looks quite depressing, black and white, and very long. Although this film explains the background of the eve of the First World War, I don’t think it has anything to do with Nazi fascism in Germany, because something like this, doesn’t it? Did it only happen in pre-WW1 Germany? I don't think, on the contrary, even now, it still exists, the author just explained a background of the times, the so-called history is the modern reappearance history, no matter where, similar things will happen, I think the author just describes the truth Just a story.
First of all, as I want to know what is and what happened in the end, it is not necessary at all, because it is all speculation, like mistresses, illegitimate children, and finally the doctor and midwife disappeared, I think the director did not give We have an answer, and even if there is an answer, it doesn't make any sense. Where there are people, there must be jealousy, greed, harm, and injustice. This is inevitable. What happened in this film, I don't think it is necessarily a murderer, maybe There are n murderers, or one murderer, but what does it matter? Anyway, it’s revenge, hatred, greed, and jealousy. I think the biggest thing this film reveals is human nature, which is a hypocritical human nature that conceals animal nature, such as The Earl's family lived a prominent life, but they were still secretly framed. The doctor looked righteous, but he did animalistic things with his daughter in private. The pastor explained people's confusion and did great things every day but pampered himself. children make mistakes, then, this is the fact that this film is going to expose.
