The old thinking was broken by him

Mother and child incest, rape, suicide, hanging, child prostitutes, Mahler always dealt with subjects that made people jump around, and dared to challenge the limits of morality. When Brooke Xiaosi saw the red, all the men and women fell into a listless state, as if they had lost their virginity. Swan's photography is fantastic. Of course it is also a great example of body photography.

The whole is a photo album of activities (Bellocq (1873–1949) has a real person), through which he travels to America 100 years ago and sees all kinds of human nature, sometimes prostitutes, women, and children (jealousy). naughty), synthesized in one person.

Good movie, just has a flavor

Time and Space is a local brothel in New Orleans during World War I. It is consumed by the upper class, and $400 can buy a 12-year-old girl's first night.

The title reminds us how cruel it seems to come into this world. There's political irony of course, you look at the 75-year-old professor, the admiral who doesn't serve, hanging around in the red light district. It reminds people of "Curiosity" in which France has failed in Dien Bien Phu, and everyone from top to bottom intellectuals and the bourgeoisie do not care about the fate of the country.

The final shot, where the female boss burns money and is with Voodoo, shows that America's money dream is over.

In America, money can buy everything.

Mahler was filming in the United States, not forgiven by his French counterparts, and the Americans never really liked him, so he was really unfortunate.

But he doesn't care. He was busy thinking about it.

    ♥ Paramount. The love of a girl who grew up in a "clean, happy" brothel. Brooke Shields' undeveloped nudity and Susan Sarandon's bare-chested nudity are the focus of the film. ★★★★ D146 (Special Edition/D5)
