1. The language of the camera lens is very lazy, the rhythm is very slow, it creates a quiet and depressing atmosphere, and the world of "ghosts" and the world of people are treated differently. The contrast is not strong, but it is completely perceptible.
2. The use of long shots is simply suffocating. For example, the entire five-minute-long shot of the wife eating the pie sent by Linda fully demonstrates the pain of losing her lover, echoing the husband’s waiting. Standing on the side, the wife can't see it, the husband feels the wife's feelings but can't express comfort and hug her... The long shot conveys the emotions in a completely delicate way, which makes us feel the same way.
3. The repeated montage presents the story layers in different time and space. The husband watched the changes of the tenants, and his mood changed from noisy to calm. The end of the film is not so much a memory of the past, but a simultaneous existence of himself in different time and space, just like another ghost said "I'm waiting for someone, but I don't remember...", even if we forget people Forget things, but the emotions and obsessions of love in our hearts exist in every time and space, I love you, even if I am a human, even if I am a ghost.
