The way of clothing is very particular. As a Korean film, the Yanbian area of China, including the arrangement of the male family, the scenes of the mahjong hall, etc., are highly restored, super detailed, and can be seen attentively. He Zhengyu made a complex, tangled, painful, and vivid performance of a character at the bottom of the society. It can be said that this role is almost the only one he can play. It is a test of acting skills, and it is so different from himself. This is true 's acting skills.
The tone of the whole film, as well as the shaking of the lens, very well fit the feeling of cruelty and depression in this film. And there is a strong sense of reality.
Personally, I think the other line, to kill the professor, is not very clear and far-fetched. How could a bank clerk have the ability to easily buy and kill a murderer? Ok, maybe the professor's wife asked him to do this. But it always felt a bit far-fetched, and the two killers I found were too incompetent. And through Jiunan at the bank, I saw the bank clerk and the professor's wife, and explained that the bank clerk and the professor's wife had an affair. This scene was too far-fetched.
In fact, when you think about it, there are too many coincidences in the whole story, which weakens the sense of reality. And there are too many threads, looking tired and messy.
At the end, the wife returned to Yanbian. In fact, I believe that the real situation is that my wife did not die, and she returned to Yanbian, I think. This is a definite conclusion, not an open ending.
The first reason is that the tone of the whole film is very depressing and painful. Jiu Nan originally wanted to go and find his wife to come back, but an inexplicable encounter along the way led to his death in the Yellow Sea, but his wife returned to Yanbian, so the two were separated by life and death in the end, which is in line with the very depressing and painful tone of the film. The second reason is that the person who claimed the body for her in front said that he couldn't see it at all, but when he called him, he told him with certainty that it was actually reflected that his wife was not dead. Third, I saw someone say that the last shot of the wife returning to Yanbian was an illusion when Jiu Nan died, but I think that the old man threw the wine into the sea, this long shot already shows that Jiu Nan is dead, so Another fantasy after his death? I don't think it's reasonable.
