The Flower of My Secret--Intoxicating Sadness Drama

Uproarious laughs are largely confined to two characters, but the material takes considerably more risks than the director's work of late, and consequently yields rewards that are altogether richer and more satisfying. In its lush mix of tragedy, comedy, and cruel paradox, fed by doses of realism, rural romanticism, and an intrinsically Spanish flavor, the film plays like a ravishing old-Hollywood sentimental drama drunk on...

#Looking back at the films I've seen before without the pressure of writing reviews

It's hard to imagine watching "Rose by the Window" for the first time without any subtitles. When I rewatched it, I added subtitles, but I don't think it's much different from the guessing feeling when there were no subtitles. Photography and art direction are nothing to say, no fault.

Oh recalls the night they...

women's mind catcher

Although the plot is not strong, the psychological line of female writer Li Ou has changed too much. Seeing her arguing with her cheating husband, the pain is still dull, but when she accompanies her mother back to the countryside to heal her wounds, sits under the sun and listens to the weaving girls singing in unison, her heart suddenly warms, and then when the fat editor sits on the slate with no one Dancing and jumping on the road, her old and neutral face rarely glowed with a childlike...
