Movies must be accustomed to expressing in silence. The life itself as a portrayal object is not damaged. The monologue performance as another track is stripped and needs to be finalized through post-processing; while musicals are accustomed to the unified appearance of the characters’ voices. , pushes the performance to the same stage dimension.
The fusion of musical theatre and film is bound to produce the distorted effect of a funk mirror, and this film deliberately seeks and amplifies that effect. Through the constant migration of inner-focusing perspectives, a sense of conflict is created with overlapping perspectives and simultaneous voices, opening up life infinitely, transforming it into a performance template to the best of its ability, and abstracting a form of life imitating art.
The musical has penetrated into the film's level of drama, life and viewing, the stage of comedians and opera singers, the chat and love between lovers, birth and childbirth, drunkenness and nightmares, news broadcasts and releases The meeting, the audience's praise and the reporter's condemnation, and even Annette's wooden puppets, are both naturalized and deconstructed into a "singing" performance.
However, after overcoming the discomfort of the sense of form, the film, in addition to providing a senseless horror similar to "The Doctor Who Became a Strange Doctor", has also become vulgar and hollow, presenting an odd and eccentric flat, weak vocals and lyrics. In the end, the characters were sacrificed and the plot was split.
