The film has always guided the audience from the subjective perspective of the heroine, step by step into a huge psychological trap, and the ending is more unexpected. When the truth became clear, the hostess found that her sister was slowly disappearing. At this time, standing in the mirror was her blood-stained herself. The scarlet set off in a white dress was even more shocking. Looking back at the show, Alex's image design was fairly cautious, and he didn't communicate with anyone other than the heroine from beginning to end, and the scenes were fairly natural. However, in order to bring the audience into the imaginary world of the heroine, some plots of this drama are more rigid and far-fetched. For example, Anna broke into Rachael’s room in order to find "proof" necklace. First of all, as a normal person, Rachael should not have thought that Anna was looking for the necklace, because she was not a murderer at all, and Anna did not act aggressively at the time, nor did Rachael. At this time, tranquilizers should be used to stimulate a patient who has delusions of persecution. She should have a certain medical basis for nursing care. In addition, the horror plot that Anna imagined in the film is a bit too much. After all, it’s not a horror film. Too many repetitions of these meaningless scenes make people feel a little helpless... At the end of the film, Anna returned to the hospital. Will not forget all this again like last time? Forgetting, looking for the truth, and finding that the truth is not what I wanted, collapsed, forgetting again, like terrible gears, crushing the fragile life of a little girl. The doctor who was not optimistic about the disease and got into serious trouble said: Sometimes people need to live by forgetting. "But sometimes, the process of regaining the memories is even more painful, because selfish humans only believe in the "truth" they want.
