From the current perspective, this is just a technical thriller

1. In February this year, the British "Guardian" ranked the top 100 British films ever, and this film actually topped the list! And it's my favorite type of suspense, so I have the chance to watch it.

2. There was a hint of disappointment after reading it. In my opinion, this is another technical film that wins with shooting techniques. Needless to say professionals, even ordinary movie viewers can see the superb skills of director Nicholas Rogge from the film. Various details are metaphors, metaphors, and echoes. The soundtrack, photography, pictures, and editing are all fine. It is indeed a good film.

3. However, as the most important part of the film-the story, the film appears to be weak, especially in the eyes of the audience now, this story really lacks enough thrill and appeal, even if the final atmosphere is very tense. .

4. Before watching, I knew that there was a Make Love scene in the movie that seemed to be extremely large at the time. I didn't expect it to look so ordinary now. The behind-the-scenes tidbits mentioned that after the film was released at that time, this not-so-explicit scene actually became a topic of discussion in the streets. And there are many people who think that actors are playing with real guns. Haha, people in the 1970s would not be surprised if they watched "Lust. Caution".

5. The first time I watched a movie starring Donald Sutherland, I found that the old man was so handsome when he was young. Tall, handsome, and unique, it is unforgettable. In appearance, he is much stronger than his son Kiefer Sutherland! (Actually, when watching "24 Hours", I thought Jack Bauer was incredibly handsome. I didn't expect to be much worse than his father.)

6. I admire the translation of the title of this movie into "Bloodlight Ghost" That person. The buddies are so capable of summarizing the plot of the movie. Ha ha.

    The style of this film is not British at all, and there are a few paragraphs that are impressive

    The performance and photography of each scene are so bad that it looks like NG material that has been shot. How to do it... Cheap and handy high-speed cross-editing and flashbacks can't do anything to remedy it. The whole movie is really like a random shot, which can blow up.
