Featured review
This is not entirely a black and white film. Because the world of wealthy people is colorful. A social realistic drama wrapped in black humor, very close to Taiwanese society. Director Huang Xinyao's catchphrase is not only amusing, but also cleverly neutralizes the almost non-existent dark depression in the story. Social class differentiation, wealth gap, and the external flaws of religious politics and economics are all extremely satirical. A great ending was filmed. The black and white tone and the life of the wealthy are colorful, seemingly throwing the problem towards a desperate class division. However, the tone of the storyteller, combined with the jokes of hearsay and the empty emotions of life, cleverly leaks out the money and sex of the old driver driving on the road, completing the theme of black humor to nihilistic literature and art. Talking and laughing can be both relaxed and enjoyable, but for some reason, there is always a sour Wu Nianzhen that makes people want to cry.
