There are not a few films that are truly adapted, and "Blood in Search of Plums" is no different. The film is based on the Hong Kong prostitute corpse case, on the basis of which it is more dramatically processed, and the perception adds a unique "charm", not surprise, not reprimand, but slowly approaching guilt and sadness. In the film, each character has a mind, will think, and when it is thought, the sadness will continue to go on until it is deep.
The beginning of the truth, the excavation of human nature, the enlightenment of life
