      Some simple ideas

      Everyone has their own misfortune, and the one who can bear is lucky. What should I do if I can't bear it? I've never watched black and white movies, I've finished watching this one. I wanted to see how this doctor is abnormal. But after reading it, I felt so sad and uncomfortable.
        
          In the film, is this couple a bad person? Don't count. The doctor looked sad when facing the seriously ill child, and he couldn't bear the harm when facing the child's mother. He felt the same....

      Cherish your face, cherish your heart

      Although the movie is black and white, it is still very beautiful. The heroine wears a mask. This mask is so handsome, revealing two big eyes. The eyes are really beautiful.

          In fact, wearing a mask is also a kind of beauty. It’s good to see through. I think the heroine originally wanted to have a face, so she acquiesced to her father’s behavior. Unsuccessful, but killed a lot of young girls. The hostess felt that she could not bear the condemnation of her conscience more and more,...

      Poor parents in the world

      I just wanted to post a short review, but the number of words is limited.╮(╯▽╰)╭ The following content is what I responded to in a long review, and some modifications have been made on the basis of it. It is also after I watched this film. In my opinion,

      I have seen many people say that the aunt in the play is not the mother of the heroine. Although I am not 100% sure to say whether the woman is her mother or not, I see so many people who definitely say that it is not her mother’s...

      Nothing at all


        This is a black and white movie from the 1960s. The subject matter of the story is not new. It is about a famous surgeon who accidentally drove his car, causing his upright and aging daughter to be severely injured and disfigured, leaving only a pair of faceless eyes, girl Wearing a white hard-shell mask all day long, living alone in a small attic, like a ghost, life is better than death. The doctor only has such a beloved daughter, in order to redeem her fault and compensate her...

      Faceless Eye


        A movie with a very complete structure. The theme is really good. It can be a big book, but it seems that the screenwriter didn't want to dig deep. Since they are called the faceless eyes, the hidden metaphors of the face and eyes can be fully expressed through the portrayal of the heroine. The images of professors and assistants in the film are still quite contradictory and full, but the heroine is too thin, especially the last turning point is not enough, the basement scene simply...

      The story itself is not creative, a story about a father who loves his daughter like his life and goes so far as to make a human experiment in order to restore his beauty to his daughter who was disfigured by an accident. However, even if the girl wears a mask, her eyes are still very beautiful. In the end, the part where she walked into the forest with a white dove in her hand was very interesting, but the soundtrack was strangely out of...

      The producer requires the director to shoot a horror film. It must not be too bloody, otherwise the French electrical test cannot pass; no animal abuse, otherwise the British electrical test cannot pass; there cannot be a perverted doctor, otherwise the German electrical test cannot pass. However, according to the director's own explanation, it is not a perversion for people who seem to have problems to pervert, but it is only scary for people who seem to be normal to pervert. Professor...

      The actress is so beautiful! It's a pity that there are not many opportunities to appear on the camera, and the screenwriter is very good~~ I can already think of such high-tech ideas in that...

      At first I was attracted by the poster. This film should be the prototype of many similar online horror stories. The plot follow-up is relatively compact and concise, revealing a unique flavor of old films. The heroine and her mask are very beautiful! !...
