a bold attempt

Director Luca is really amazing. He can break through boldly every time and is not limited to a specific artistic range. The innovative horror narrative method makes people sweat and scream. In addition to most of the interpretations about the two virtues, revolution, and feminism, the film is also very deep in dance. The style, meaning, aesthetics, etc. of the dance can no longer be said, but Blanc's teaching on the spiritual aspects of Susie's dance (belonging to me, freedom, resistance) and her performance of cherishing talents can still reflect on today's industry. There are still some details in the film that I have not yet understood, but they are also elements of the audience's curiosity. Susie's Nightmare, The Last Massacre, etc., all the most terrifying pictures have an attractive and unique aesthetic. One less star comes from the blurring of the theme and the scattered plot, but it does not prevent me from liking this film.
