Don't be a devil, don't live insane

I gave it three stars because I just finished watching it and my heart is still numb~ It is not suitable for people who only admire Adjani's beauty.

Throughout the film, Adjani's eyes flashed a fierce and faint blue light. As long as there is a picture of her appearing, it always makes people ignore other characters, especially the close-up of her eyes, the strong magnetic field of fear. It's hard to imagine how the actor who plays against her can't be distracted by her.

Although I knew before watching it that this was not a light-hearted nostalgic film, the madness of the film still left me unprepared. The part of the subway that many people praised, I watched with tears, how could I not love her. If you change the actor, this part should be nauseating. Therefore, I think this film is largely propped up by Adjani's personal charm. A large segment of crazy and extreme performances seems to be tailor-made for her, and it is a bit of a non-magic, not crazy life.
In addition, the details are still worth recalling, whether it is a spiritual fantasy of the couple or a magical encounter with meaning.

    Handing knives for unmarried claims. Summary of the story: Both of them are insane, and then they finally stand on the same front and commit nerves together. If there is no cause, background or motivation, just looking at the result will feel inexplicable, and no matter how ruthless it is, it will not be able to empathize or cause some thinking; I hope there is a psychological trace that can be traced back, but there is no time to look again and explore. Purely for the sake of appearance, I am very satisfied. I thought that the pure desire teacher with the same face, I thought it was imagined, but I didn't expect... It feels like the director is satisfying his own bad taste.

    The director's idea is very interesting. Adjani's neurotic acting is very good, but this is not a horror film. It can be understood with the concept of poetry. Everything is a representation and a symbol. The theme is about the human struggle of derailment and divorce. Otherwise, really puzzling
