The biggest suspense in the film is actually only one, and that is whether the woman is a spy. How did the screenwriter achieve this suspenseful delayed gratification? It starts at 53 minutes and goes all the way to 100 minutes with a full 50 minutes in between. The director's approach is actually the following: 1. Create various tensions and conflicts to distract the audience's attention. For example, there are many secret wrestling in the party scene. For example, the end of the party ends with the crash of a plane, and the male protagonist flies to France. A tank battle was launched, and the audience was suddenly attracted by these reasonable plots that highlighted the characters and revolved around the main narrative; 2. In order to prevent the audience from giving up their expectations for the movie after knowing the truth of the heroine's identity, the director must It is necessary to arrange a more advanced ending for her than her spy status, so I will continue to lay it out for the last love story in the front; 3. Before finding the truth, arrange for the male protagonist to do more exploration and lengthen the Suspense and espionage scenes.

Regrettably, in the opening 40 minutes, the recognition and love between the two were basically in vain, it was just a test, and there was no spark. More importantly, the audience actually knows nothing about the male protagonist. The audience doesn't know anything about the heroine. Why did the two decide to get married and have children after experiencing Casablanca? have no idea. This kind of love seems a little quick. This is also the reason why the love at the end of this movie can impress the audience, because for so long, what a woman wants is a peaceful life, but because of the war, she had to commit suicide to fulfill her daughter. The foreshadowing of the warm play finally got payoff at the end.
