empty flower bubble

I didn't know anything about the movie in advance except for this poster, but I just felt lively and alienated. The film is subtle. The title of the film reveals the theme. Everyone inside seems to be in love, taking care of themselves, like falling in love with themselves. Extensive use of glass reflections creates an interweaving of reality and illusion. The large amount of trivial dialogue and background crowd voices in the film is such a plain and boring expression of reality. Finally, the broken glass subtitles came out, with great tension, these empty flower bubbles. All we see is self-imagination. People are so lonely.

    The texture of the film is very soft and light, and the suspense creates a casual and heart-stringing effect. Misidentification of identity is not intentional, but stems from confusion about self-recognition. The fullness of the image comes from the narration of others, and the collection of environmental sounds such as the sound of cars, voices, and high heels always isolates you in the city. After watching Ru Mu love, I really want to shoot the story of my one-night stand.

    A kind of "Lost in Translation" that is different from other cultures, more subtle and more general. Among the most "caring" film writers, there must be Abbas. The grandfather of this film reminds me of the grandfather of "Where", and then I feel that Abbas's face is just like them. After thinking about it, it is still three and a half stars. Based on this title and this poster, this movie has a more beautiful appearance in my mind. (The aftertaste is good enough, come back every other week and change it to four stars.)
