The French film made by the director of "A Farewell" is as suspenseful as ever, but lacks the Iranian cultural background, so it focuses on the proposition of getting out of the past. The movie "The Past" tells the story of a woman who wants to start a new life and asks her ex-husband for a divorce, only to discover that her current boyfriend's wife committed suicide because she and her ex-husband's daughter retaliated by sending emails. This work has a lot more to do than the director's other films, and it may also be that as a Chinese audience, there is a cultural estrangement from French life. But in any case, so many coincidences, so many pasts piled up together, can still feel deliberate. As always, the director is good at laying the groundwork, making suspense more reasonable when revealing, and as always, he is good at expressing through children. . Several characters have the past, and they can also express it accordingly. The past must always be let go, and people always have to start a new life, but letting go does not mean that there is no emotion. Therefore, the heroine has a small mentality of revenge against her ex-husband. The ex-husband feels guilty to the heroine. The current boyfriend chooses to complete the marriage but holds the unconscious wife at the end of the film and does not let go.
