?【Flesh and Spirit】

Surreal style, French film.

First of all, the male and female protagonists are very interesting: the male protagonist is precocious, lustful, single middle-aged man, disabled in his left hand, and the owner of the slaughterhouse; the female protagonist suffers from social phobia and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Andy, beautiful and tall, meat inspector.

The two sleep in the same dream every day. In the dream, they meet each other and then fall in love, which is quite paradoxical; but in reality, it is difficult because they cannot stop at courtesy. Discovered emotional spirituality after fighting with others.

The director is very divided. You can see the most ferocious slaughtering and cutting the wrists, and you can also see the three-minute sexual lingering at the end of the film that can be called the "eye" of the movie, but all the auditions are in the cool scene. It seems so natural and calm, especially the world from the perspective of livestock, the occurrence of falsehood may just be a fantasy.

Making love with the one deeply penetrates into my soul, for which makes myself anew perhaps.

    Visually good-looking, the girl who looks like a white porcelain piece has the temperament of a deer. The ending of a shared dream is not a soul mate, it's quite sighing to think about it.
