Anti-customer-oriented character relationship. The water droplets from the tap and the uncontrollable lust, the winding stairs witness the relocation of master and servant, and the twisted mirror that has appeared four times is the objective eye, the transformation of the perspective of the characters and the audience. Gloomy mood, embracing nihilism in winter, the last drunken fan of the upper...

4.5/5 The theme of "Dove occupies a magpie's nest", the two male lead scenes are full of emotional tension (the husband's daily life in the last paragraph??), and the flirting scene of Tony and Vera is also very sexy. Excellent photography and interior scheduling, film noir technique. (LA times' review is accurate: a heartless study in upper class impotence, sexual ambiguity and the dynamics of personal power...

Stairs and mirrors are used so well, there is a repressed sexual innuendo everywhere, no wonder the ending becomes. . That. . Sample. . Shouldn't Pinter be a pervert? . So James Fox was still a rookie actor at that time? He's really suitable for playing this kind of superficially offensive role. ....

The movie's control over the audience's expectations is undoubtedly astonishing, from the configuration of props, the mirrored light and shadow, to the extension of the look by the moving camera, all of which are shocking, and this is also an emotional roller coaster, and at the end you are suspended in the...

The composition is too powerful, mirrors, stairs, railings, faucets, chairs, hidden intrigue, but also deep and shallow sexual interest. The change of master and servant is not achieved overnight, but it is like a snowball that rolls bigger and bigger, and the more it rolls, the more reasonable it is. Starting from pouring that glass of brandy, the situation is...

What makes it better than Parasite is that The Servant makes good use of spatial ambiguity, where a London residence is confused for an Anglicized interior section because it is both a residence and a nightclub-cum-nightclub. Prison - When Tony's ideal room gradually becomes a cell, every corner of the house is handed over to Barratt to rule; the master is trapped in the house, from upstairs to downstairs, the servants are the prison guards. The staircase serves as a secret key location (can it...

The black and white film is the best, dark and ecstasy. [2016/5/9 Rewatching Blu-ray] Everyone came to find 2 obvious piercing shots: 1. The porcelain base next to the stairs of the ball game. 2. The trousers zipper when the servant gets up after dropping the ball. plus : The phone booth scolding "you fucking bitch" was probably the first time I heard it on the big screen in the UK. 3. "In search of the locations for Joseph Losey's classic The Servant" https://reurl.cc/1o6jOW 4. Robin Maugham,...

I like the ambiguous part in the front, and the back is too extreme. The movie is very dark, and the most annoying thing is the indifference and hypocrisy of the host's fiancee. The male master is incredibly weak. When there is no male servant at home, he becomes helpless, and he never seems to have this kind of dependence on female maids. Maybe everything is caused by loneliness. Lonely likes will attract each other, but they are doubly lonely together. Excellent photography...

The absurd drama, the last half an hour did not feel as good as the previous one, the decadence of spiritual attachment routs, reminded me of Gu Kedo's drama, terrible children. The photography and setting are...

"The Servant" of "Director's Talk"
The success of "The Servant" firstly benefited from the excellent script of the Nobel Prize winner Harold Pinter. The film unfolds in a closed space, namely Tony's house, and tells the process of reversing the positions between the master Tony and the servant Barrett. The complicated character and...
