Carl is a well-known eavesdropping expert in half America. He was hired by a company chairman to help him detect an extramarital affair. The pair of cheating men and women in the eavesdropping tape left an important message: at 3 o'clock, a hotel's Room 773. Carl took the tape to the director, who was furious. For some reason, Carl found out in his conscience that he felt that he always sold out other people's secrets and killed others indirectly. full of blood on the glass window.

Karl, who has always been condemned by his conscience, is terrified, broken, and turns to cover his head with a quilt and turn on the TV to the loudest, in order to escape a murder by his own hands.

After a while, he calmed down, picked the lock and went to the next room, and found that there was nothing unusual or messy in the room, and the furnishings were the same as an empty room that no one had ever lived in, except that red blood was oozing from the toilet.

Later, he found that the cheating man and woman were safe, but the director of the company died in a car accident. He was confused and began to feel that something was wrong. The thing that frightened him the most was that he was being monitored, and the other party threatened him not to step in this muddy water.

The movie ends with Carl's skepticism. I rummaged through my house, took off the chandelier, turned on the phone with a screwdriver, turned on the electric panel and all other electronic devices in the house, smashed all the ceramics, tore the wallpaper, pryed open the wooden floor, and pryed open the door panel, and finally found nothing. Sitting in a chair dripping with sweat, he played the saxophone calmly.

    5 stars at the end alone. The eavesdropping expert job is for me.

    It should be literally translated as "Dialogue". When eavesdropping on other people's conversations, point by point, they are quietly peeled off, peeling off the inferior security feeling of self-control. I like it very much, the details appear slowly one by one, not disordered, and do not need to be deliberately controlled. Coppola perfectly integrates the rhythm into the space, sound, and composition of the entire film. Such a film can no longer be duplicated, yes The best example of the perfect combination of improvisation and layout.
