I really can't think of such a multifaceted irony

The details are handled very well, and many ideas have not been sorted out. It's a process of balance, imbalance, collapse. There are many scenes of corruption. The architect is the ruler and creator of this building. He treats the lower-class residents like Lang as if he treats his own dog. Many scenes are explained, including the one where Monroe pushed the swimming pool. A dog was drowned in the swimming pool by Wilde, which meant resistance, and the collapse officially started. It is worth noting that women are the most united and strong images in such a broken situation. Everything in order, washing clothes in a messy pool and things like that made me cringe. It's like watching other people live in the order of the ancient times in a modern mansion, like a savage who licks his hair and drinks blood, it's amazingly bad to me. Near the end, Wilde climbed to the top floor to confront the architect. The architect noticed that the chandelier was on and off, and when he opened the curtain of his studio, he found that the women were generating electricity and commanding the country on the architectural drawings. At this time, men Or the role of rulers has been replaced by women. Wilde shot the architect, berating him for hiding in women's skirts. I see here that I have forgotten whether Wilde is looking for a wife or just resisting. I have to say this is a really bad rebel, like a ridiculous fight for a pointless fight. In the end, she was killed by the women, and she died well. The role of Lang seems to be the kind of person who can adapt to this kind of collapse. Wilde's ability to climb to the top must be due to the piece of paper he gave him, so he probably also wanted to resist, but he was cowardly, hypocritical and cold-blooded. The kind of person who gathers together. I really don't want to watch this movie a second time, because many details are not connected, so make a note and mark it. Write it down when you remember it, or forget it, it makes me so tired.
