The unpredictable other me

It's like what the movie poster Vicoria's cold and warm yin and yang face suggests:
After my ideals and love are shattered, will I become another person?

The one who drank the spirits was a beautiful girl who was supposed to be nourished by art, but this was extremely conflicting with the identity of the robber, but it was reasonable. The cry of "Sun" when she died, I don't think it was her catharsis of the emotional backlog for several hours. Instead, I would rather believe that it was just the grief that disappeared in an instant for the "love and hope" just found (just like the name of the sun. After quickly calming down, the heroine returned to the self-sealing state of the painful memory of "love and ideals" (and she herself is also accustomed to this state. It is like facing the brother who has been in jail, "never do bad things again," In the confession of "I am a good person", she said: "No, it won't (you will continue to sin)". We can predict the future of the heroine. Just look at the

end and let the real time completely match the movie time, as if In 2 hours and 20 minutes, I really experienced a life and death, a love, and a robbery. The sense of substitution of time matching cannot be achieved by editing. I believe that the penetration of this film is in the eyes of young Berliners who walk out of the cinema in the same neighborhood. Stronger. Probably it’s like the devil in my heart followed Vicoria for a walk.

Finally, let’s talk about "The Devil's Waltz", also called "Mephisto Waltz", which is the final movement of "Faust." The tune is used in the last scene before the "robbing" to reveal the collapsed heart of Vicorica, who is as weak as an "angel", and serves as a primer for her active participation in the robbery. I think it is just right except for the actors who can't play the piano.

    Walking on the streets of Berlin at night, talking about life on the rooftop, bicycles and piano music, it is very romantic and comfortable, but why did it suddenly become a Bonnie and Clyde style? Underground gangsters, flying cars, fighting fire in the garden... Finally, the Westin Hotel, the warm home of desperate couples~

    Personally, I don't like to infinitely enlarge the elements of "performance art" in movies. Whatever you take from a young age to an old one, if the effect presented can’t serve the image itself, it’s all wrangling. It would take 140 minutes to cut this film! Of course, if you cut it, you won’t even see anything. This film is a successful case of "how to force a mediocre story". This point rewards creativity and execution.
