    The opera at the beginning reminds me of Italian film traditions. Tong Zirong's voice acting is really passionate and fits the characters very well. The silhouette of the era and the heart of the characters. The plot tension is not as great as I thought, maybe biopics are like that. But it's still very powerful in terms of explaining the psychology of the characters. In addition, this is also a good example of a film that expresses stage drama, which integrates drama and plot very well.
