On Nietzsche

Robert's motive for killing is very simple. He just wanted to practice his teacher's theory and prove that he belongs to a higher person. The core of the whole theory mentioned in the movie should be Nietzsche's theory of superman. Nietzsche's theory of superman is in my opinion. In the field of morality, Nietzsche divides morality into master morality and slave morality, and the consciousness of class inequality is indeed very strong. For a period of time, I also believed in Nietzsche's philosophical theory, the superhuman theory, the will to power, and eternal reincarnation. He offers us a completely different way of understanding the world. To believe or not to believe this theory is your freedom, and we must pay the price for what we do. Hitchcock's film makes us understand that killing doesn't necessarily require deep hatred, but a profit-driven drive, because there are so few so-called unreasonable things we do?

Without any editing, a long shot to the end, the whole film is in one room, creating suspense that there is no suspense at all. In fact, this is Hitchcock's least suspenseful one. But there is a little bit, the meaning is that no one is the so-called superior, and can deprive others of their lives at will

10 long shots of Hitchcock. Breathtaking. The stage effect is too heavy.

Phillip: Rupert only publishes books *he* likes... usually philosophy.
Janet: Oh. Small print, big words, no sales.
Brandon: Rupert's extremely radical. Do you know that he selects his books on the assumption that people not only can read but actually can think?
-
Rupert Cadell: Brandon's spoken of you.
Janet: Did he do me justice?
Rupert Cadell: Do you deserve justice?
