4.5/5. Maupassant's story is particularly human and custom, but it feels a kind of desolation and desolation. For example, the narration introduces Normandy as a quiet town on the English Channel - this kind of perspective has been lost to the audience after World War II. In this sense, personal experiences reveal the chasm of the times, joy is what has been lost, sealed in masks, wreaths and canvases, which also constitute the symbol of the film, and the joys and sorrows are played out like a crystal ball. How wonderful is this crystal, the panning lens is like cursive writing, and it is written in a pious (church tears), or secular (train farewell) space, the faces in "Round Dance" and the tilted lens appear together, as if continuing to write "in time" The Walk", then quoted by Godard in The Book of Images. Movies are not masks, they will stop the human experience that is doomed to decay at that moment of youth and indulgence.

3.5. Compared with "Letter from a Strange Woman", I feel that this is the real encounter with Orpheus. The beauty of Rococo bursts out in more undisguised literature and more self-liberating mirror language. PTA past life.
