the master is still alive

The whole film is full of violent aesthetics and bad taste. In the process of watching the film, I made a pendulum movement between emotion and discomfort for the strong political elements in it. But at the end, I realized that the film was "anti-political". Whether you were lying under the train or sitting on the train when you were young, chasing the train or hiding from the train, no matter where the train went, people could not escape either being run over by the wheels of history, or watching helplessly. The fate of others being crushed by the wheel of history but powerless. The flow of the whole episode is smooth, but some moments are a bit blunt. A group of Americans, French, and even Germans played the Italians. Apart from the incompatibility of the mouth, the temperament of the characters made me, a Chinese living in the United States, not able to see the incongruity at all. However, it is three Italian actors who shine: Laura Betti, who plays the perverted fascist cousin Regina, Alida Valli, who plays the wife of a desperate bankrupt landlord, and Stefania Casini, who plays a mad prostitute. The last half hour reminded me of the history of land reform, and even the footage clearly paid tribute to the domestic propaganda posters in the 1950s and 1960s.
