Very relevant, at least. BTW, I like the J&C combination.

Duplicity, the dumbest old man is actually the last boss. He is the biggest winner in the whole duplicity show.

The hero and the heroine still lost the gold after finishing the calculations, but fortunately they confirmed the love. Don't hate this ending.

Personally, I prefer stories that are focused and resist everything. As far as this film is concerned, the incident is a commercial spy battle, and the connection is the relationship between the two. The role of lines is to run through events, narrate events, and enrich events. The whole focus is on the tension of duplicity, so you can't make a two-person elopement at the end to promote the greatness of love, or it will be superfluous. The director is pretty clever.

Some digressions: I
like the ending song.
Roberts is old but still charming, Owen has always been sexy. (The episode where Roberts tried Owen with his underwear made me feel good about this character disappear a bit... Cunning woman and deceived man)
There is one more question-is this film really that difficult to understand? Is it difficult to understand Muholland than the Tower of Babel? I don't think the director is playing mystery. This kind of entering piece doesn't make a big shift in the narrative structure. If you play tricks in the details, the effect will be extremely boring. At least I myself accidentally watched the encounter in Rome, and then went back to the beginning and found the same conversation before I became interested. . .

Duplicity quotes

  • Ray Koval: This wasn't an accident, was it? Being here. Meeting like this. You came looking for me, didn't you?

    Claire Stenwick: You'd like that, wouldn't you?

    Ray Koval: I'm right, though, aren't I?

    Claire Stenwick: Because you went looking for me, right?

    Ray Koval: But why? Just for this?

    Claire Stenwick: Isn't that enough?

    Ray Koval: Not for you.

  • Claire Stenwick: If I told you I loved you, would it make any difference?

    Ray Koval: If you told me or if I believed you?

    Claire Stenwick: I love you. I really do. I don't know why you would believe me. I don't know why we'd believe anything anymore. I just keep having this fantasy that we suddenly snap out of it, that we come out of this and be like people are supposed to be, like, trusting and honest.

    Ray Koval: We're not like other people.

    Claire Stenwick: I know that. Don't you think I know that? Do you have any idea how frustrating it is to know that you are the only man who could ever possibly understand me? Look, I know who you are. And I love you anyway.
