In the film, Glenn Close gave a wonderful performance, but the script itself was lackluster. The climax at the beginning of the story, the director is trying to catch it, but unfortunately he tried too hard. The plot that followed was so plain that one thought it opened the Nobel official documentary. Of course, the director has obviously not forgotten that he dug a huge earth-shattering hole before, interspersed in the documentary-style running account with flashbacks of the protagonists and couples when they met and fell in love when they were young, pretending to inadvertently shake out the burden that seemed to be buried with great care: the wife ghosted her husband. The only minor problem is that the director himself did not treat this as revealing the mystery, but hoped that in the next 2/3 of the time, the audience pretended not to know what happened, and in order to get a good impression, the audience had to cooperate with him. Many commentators stated that the film used seemingly mild means to accuse the patriarchal society of the cannibalization of women's personality and wisdom, but this film is really not worthy of such a grand theme. Perhaps what the director wanted to say is quite simple. If you want to be a model couple in the eyes of others, it would be nice to have someone who is a patient with Stockholm syndrome.

The female characters' forbearance of outbursts and accusations, Glenn's performance overshadowed the script.

The movie is too mediocre. . But really gotta add a star to the show! ! He was steadily brought into the play by the two old men. . Except for Granny Glenn, who almost won an Oscar. . The High Sparrow also did a great job. . Husband and wife. . After the fierce quarrel, they hugged happily because of the birth of their grandson. . So I think even if the husband didn't die. . His wife still won't leave him. . The relationship is delicate. . Also very helpless. . Speaking of grandma's delicate acting. . A shy and decent wife. . But he couldn't stop the wise light in his eyes. . I liked the smoking and drinking scene with the biographer. . The scene of listening to husband Nobel's speech. . Undoubtedly it's a moment after the movie
