This film seems to have become Dietrich's personal show, with different costumes and different accessories, taking turns in battle, so mysterious, arrogant, wronged, sad, playful, stubborn... It
seems that Dietrich is placed in a photographic scene . The shed changes the scene, the shape, and the character, but in the end, it is all beautiful. Therefore, every close-up of Dietrich in the film resembles a classical photograph.
In addition, the most interesting thing is Steinberg's use of props in the scene. The windows and curtains in the train open and close like a conjuration, and people are also covered up and down. A simple design, just Make your videos different.
Although, this story now seems to be a bit unsatisfactory.
