When you laugh, the world laughs with you; when you cry, you cry alone.

Although the ending can be seen after knowing that it is the male protagonist and sister who died, it is for everyone to see after all, and it is understandable to average the cognitive level. The design of the plot expresses the story vividly. The parts of eating octopus and extracting teeth have brought people's emotions to a certain extreme. In the end, when the male 1 wanted to kill the male 2, a satirical recording was released, and the male 1 sought hypnosis. The metaphor of the teacher burying his own memory in the snow, the language of the shots is just right, the colors and tones are liked, everything is serving the plot, and the photography art is not overwhelming. great!

    The film covers too many complex elements, and rubbing these complex elements together does not feel a bit blunt and deep. There is no reason not to watch it. Of course, there is also the touch of warmth at the last moment. ps, I always think Daxiu looks like Jackie Chan. ★★★★☆

    [Exhibition at Busan Film Festival] The restored version of the exhibition of 10 great films in the 100-year history of Han Film + Park Chan Wook post-introduction. Seven years ago, I wrote that I didn’t want to read it a second time, but this time I read it again. The vigorous emotions of men and women on the big screen, the extreme revenge of perversion, and the bloody violence and sexual scenes bring a strong visual and spiritual double impact. Coupled with comedy elements embellishment, it is very beautiful. The performances of Cui Min Zhi, Kang Hye Jung and Liu Ji Tae were extremely perfect. Especially Cui Minzhi's play of the dog-playing stage on the spot, it's really amazing. What about animal incest, they also have the courage and right to live and love!
