A horror film by Roman Polanski and Catherine Deneuve. The heroine is for a mentally disordered patient with persecution delusions. The director uses a lot of plain space to gradually portray the heroine’s psychological changes, and gradually create a kind of The psychological tension of slow forward and tight, the sexual metaphor of 0 o’clock, the expanded space of the room when helpless is the sense of sight, the sense of tension in the mind of the peaceful background ticking, the bell and the doorbell switch between fantasy and reality. Unique montage technique.

    In the 1960s, it was quite admirable to be able to specifically present the situation of mental patients and human fears and dreams in the movie. Although the rhythm is a bit slow, I think this is to bring out the terrifying and treacherous atmosphere in it, to show the protagonist's cautiousness not to disturb her fantasy world, and to show the protagonist's gradual collapse and disintegration. Many of the scenes are already firmly in my heart, because the movie really depicts the dream too real!
