Aggressive lines, dark humor in British skits

An English-style sketch that focuses on aggressive lines, an elegant family cocktail party, and turns into you love me, I love her, and she loves her all kinds of bullshit. However, the temperament mastered by the film is not vulgar and superficial. The irony is that the British middle class and intellectuals have distinct personalities and opinions in many aspects of marriage, politics, medical care, and belief.
As a shadow minister, the ruling party is often asked to sing the opposite, and it is often easy to form an extreme concept, which blurs the boundaries between life and work. The heroine Janet's loss of control over her self-behavior, and everyone's various idealism or materialism, patriarchal or feminist ideas, symbolizes such a social divide, which has become impossible to communicate and examine, which is in line with the social state of the UK in recent years. A sharp mapping.
The tone of black and white, the contrast is even exaggerated, and the black and white are vivid, but the vividness of the characters is exposed more thoroughly. They don't have black and white in their hearts, they are all gray, which is the lack of tone presented in the film, but is expressed by the characters. The hypocrisy and pretentiousness of the middle class and intellectuals show what is considered perfect by all, but fragile self-esteem is more easily broken. For example, the more you want to prove that you are more inferior, everyone wants to use their own philosophical views to judge the world, and ignore the emotions of the people around them. Scissors.

    The ending failed, but the victory was short! It's only 70 minutes, so it's over in a blink of an eye, okay? As a sketch, you can get four stars, and a serious movie has only three stars. Watching a group of dramas torn apart is very interesting and entertaining. PS: The Party is also a "party" lol.

    The 71-minute competition film is undoubtedly a bonus. When I first saw the title of the film, I thought, it’s not just another room where people arguing, and the result is really true. How should I put it, the lines are funny, and the movie-watching atmosphere is also very good, but I don’t like it much, at least it can’t be called a masterpiece, right? The construction of drama conflict is very straightforward. As a confined space, there is no wonderful scheduling. The basic skills are available, but the spirituality is still insufficient. What if Bunuel or Polanski came to shoot?

The Party quotes

  • Martha: Where is Janet?

    April: Doing a Thatcher. Proving she can still rustle up a canape in the kitchen when necessary, despite her political prowess.

  • April: Gottfried and I are seperating. This is our last supper.
