I just finished watching muerder by death. At first, I didn’t quite understand the ending. I searched various film reviews on the Internet, but there were different opinions. I finally decided to calm down and think about it. First of all, I always think about the question of whether the housekeeper, the female chef, and Mr. Shuang are the same person or three different people, or even if two of the roles are one person and the other role exists independently (it seems to need to be arranged and combined). They are three independent individuals. We can see that the three characters in the film are very different in terms of gender, age and body, and even their various physical defects: Mr. Shuang does not have a pinky finger, and the butler is a blind person (I think he is not Pretending), the female chef could not speak or hear (although it turned out to be false afterwards). Such a stark difference, I think it is the choreographer’s suggestion that the murder did happen. It was not a person’s self-writing and self-direction. The so-called short "Mr. Double" and the blind housekeeper were indeed murdered. However, the identity of the murderer is estimated to be the real Mr. Shuang (because at the end of the film review, you can see that the "cooking lady" does not have a pinky finger). In this way, the clues of the whole movie are basically smooth, but there is still a doubt, that is why the chef said that she did not know English at first, and then she wrote an English note when she informed the housekeeper that she had died. I think this is also true. The clue given to us by the choreographer suggests that the murderer was the "cooking lady" who exposed the flaw, that is, the real Mr. Shuang.

    good. In vain, I searched for the source of the film for a long time, and then downloaded it for a week at the speed of 5kb/s, and then searched for the subtitles and merged the video into the format. It took so much trouble, I was almost convinced by myself! Let it stay on the plate for two more days, and look at it when you have time~
