"Reception" after watching

It is very compact and staged, the performance is full, and the ending is excellent. The stalks of politics, marriage, and religion appear naturally with the development of dialogue and plot, but they are fragmented and distributed, which is just a smile. There is no more in-depth discussion in the film, which is always a pity.

I can feel that the director's tone is ironic, and I always think of old man Woody Allen when I watch it. The overall style is that a group of intellectuals (except financial men) in the upper class are fighting each other. The collision and fusion of beliefs and opinions are vividly visualized through performances, which are very absurd and wonderful.

    The ending may seem open, but this is a highly closed film. Inside a wealthy family environment, the dilemma of contemporary capitalism is displayed. The artificial form, the false relationship, the inside and outside of each other. Politics, love, sex, beliefs, pistols, drugs, even mystical oriental and vulgar realism, all possibilities are firmly trapped. The choices are all bad, none of the characters deserve sympathy, and that's where we are today.

    Can Chinese-speaking reporters climax collectively? The official storyline is kept secret. It is nothing more than the story of her husband’s terminal illness and derailment involving the upper-class relatives and friends of the society that he loves her, she loves him, and she loves her. The mass-produced plot, awkward and clumsy humor (such as playing music), and a speechless ending, are far inferior to Polanski's "Killing," but it's good for a short shot.

The Party quotes

  • April: Oh, don't worry about her. Looks like a girl, thinks like a man. Androgynous soul always had true grit.

  • Martha: April, really. I am a professor. Specializing in domestic labour gender differentiation in American utopianism.
