Notes

Old man with a midlife crisis, a one-night stand is nothing but a dream of renewed hope.
A few interesting places -
1. The noisy vocals at the beginning and end. Can't help but want to escape the disgusting crowd.
2. The hotel manager and the head of the office staff in the dream are the same as the wife's respect.
3. Looking in the mirror and wanting to take off my face, I fell to the ground in a dream.
4. The next morning, Stone and Lisa had breakfast together. Lisa was talking, and the sun was shining through the window. Lisa became hazy and illusory, and everything became unreal.
5. The Japanese diva doll in the adult goods store sings a song at the end.
6. The dark night scene of the city. Meet up with an old lover. Lonely young man watching porn and masturbating. Go to an adult store. All reflect the extremely empty and lonely inner world of the protagonist.
7. Except for the male protagonist and Lisa, the others are dubbed by men, and the same voice appears many times. Highlight the encounter between the two. Another manifestation of mental illness.
8. Fregoli is the name of the hotel. Fregoli Delusional Syndrome (Chinese: Fregoli Delusional Syndrome), also known as Personal Transformation Syndrome, was first reported by Courbon and Fail (1927). Contrary to Capgras delusion, such patients believe that many people around them are in fact the same person in disguise, which is a type of delusional cognitive syndrome.
