1. "Affair"
Released: 1991, 85 minutes long
Film genre: sadistic love, exposing human desire and ugliness
Special Comments:
The Chinese translation of the film is very poor, and I feel a little confused about the plot, but the plot is quite simple. Francesca's husband dies in a car accident, leaving her with a lot of debt. In order to pay off her debts, Francesca sold everything she could, and she used to be a noblewoman who basically couldn't save face to work, and for the sake of rent and living expenses and her daughter's education expenses, the glamorous widow who was born beautiful and had many followers came up with a lottery method. One of the 20 applicants will be drawn from the prize for 4 years, but each applicant must submit 1 small goal before they are eligible for the lottery. If it weren't for the ghosts, I don't think any man would want to spend such a large amount of money to go to the lottery, and it wasn't 100% successful. Even if you win, it's only been 4 years, and it's a big loss. However, there are still 20 conscripts in the movie who are willing to spend a lot of money, and as a result, Francesca uses a little trick and loses 20 small goals.

The poor orphans and widows have not had time to weep bitterly, and an even greater disaster has quietly come. Many of her husband's former friends came to the funeral, however, looking at their ill-intentioned eyes, it can be seen that this group of so-called friends of wine and meat are all suspicious, where they came to attend the funeral, they just want to be the first to get Francesca, who has just become a widow.
Indeed, she is so beautiful, who can not be tempted?
Even the lawyer of her husband's company has a soft spot for her, and at this moment, Chizare, a lawyer who thinks he is close to the water, is taking the opportunity to contact Francesca to discuss the company's debts, which frightens Francesca. It turned out that her husband owed a lot of debts during his lifetime, and the former noble lady instantly became a poor egg.
In order to prevent the mansion from being taken away by others, Francesca put down her body, she came to the luxury store where she once spent a lot of money as a salesperson, in order to survive, she no longer cares about the strange eyes of others, even if she meets her former noble lady friends, she doesn't care, gritted her teeth and insists. However, her self-reliant way of saving herself was finally ruined in the hands of those men who did not give up on her, and in the face of men's excessive behavior, Francesca was directly a big mouth, and the salesman's work came to an abrupt end.
Now, if she wants to survive, there is only one way, sell everything she can sell.
She even held a huge property auction at the suggestion of a noble lady's friend, in order to increase her income as much as possible, she agreed to the excessive request of a rich woman with black-rimmed glasses, and took off a black dress she was wearing on the spot without hesitation and sold it, and when they came out of the room again, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.
With the auction income, Francesca can finally take a breather, however, fate makes her step on and step on it like shit, and the mansion she just saved has a big problem.
At this moment, the lawyer was already waiting outside the door, and she could only dress up a little and leave the house. It turned out that the property of the mansion saw that she had money, and directly came to the ground and sued her, but fortunately, through the mediation of a related man, Francesca did not enter the game, but was asked to repay the property in a short period of time.
Such a large sum of money forced Francesca to accept the love of one of her husband's former business partners.
In the face of the long-awaited beauty, the old man was also willing to give, and the sapphire necklace with several small goals was brought without hesitation. A small target for the strata fee, that's just a drizzle. Francesca can finally put her mind at ease, and with such a wronged leader, there is nothing to worry about in the future. However, when she casually looked at the handsome photos of the wealthy businessman, she was disgusted by the pair of dentures lying quietly in the water, so she lost the necklace and fled home.
Francesca shared the story with her friend Kara, and they were all laughing happily. In fact, none of her friends are good, she is now in the most need of help, and her friend Carla not only stole her expensive fur coat, but also told her a heart-wrenching thing. It turned out that her husband had betrayed the marriage a long time ago, and the woman in front of her was her husband's favorite. At this moment, Francesca is in despair, she has a perfect body and invincible appearance, she rejects all ill-intentioned men, but in exchange for betrayal, how can she bear it?
So, she decided to "sell" herself and completely solve the current dilemma.
Just do it, she has no worries, and the price is clearly marked on this dinner party that builds momentum for her.
All along, these old men who want to get him, after the inspection, if everything is satisfied, only need to pay a small goal, and they can have her four years of good time.
Of course, there were some unsatisfactory episodes along the way, such as a curious farmer who scolded Francesca when he learned that he was going to "sell" him.
This shocked Francesca and left her to flee.
However, this is not the most serious thing. When 20 family men called Francesca with great longing, she was accused of this "selling" herself, which frightened these old men, they are all men who and face outward, and they must not want to lose their face.
Fortunately, Francesca was wise enough, and when questioned by the police officer, she calmly stated the fact that those who helped her were friends of her husband, and they just felt that the orphan and widow were very pitiful with huge debts, so they were obliged to give a little financial support. At this point, the bigwigs finally breathed a sigh of relief, where did they dare to mention the deposit again, and the deposit of a few small goals was naturally cheaper than Francesca.
In fact, all this is Francesca's "thief shouting to catch a thief", because she wants to teach these ill-intentioned men a little lesson, and more importantly, she is a good woman with a bottom line.

Wonderful plot:
Marlena's tragedy has long been predestined, and she is just a microcosm of countless Marlena under the war.
This made her encounter engraved with the background of the times! Today is the beginning of Marlena's nightmare as her military husband dies on the battlefield. This unfortunate thing, if it is placed in peacetime, after sadness, life can go on, but unfortunately not now, because everyone in the town under the war is in danger, there is a shortage of materials, and everyone's life can no longer be controlled by themselves.
Not to mention, a widow who has lost her husband!
To put it bluntly, Marlena's even basic survival has become a problem, so she can only beg for charity from men when she is hungry, but unfortunately, in such a cruel environment, even such an inconspicuous charity has to pay a price.
Soon, on a dark night, Marlena had to repay the men who had kept her alive in the only way she could, reluctantly, and it was evident that she resisted, but could not do anything about it.
Moreover, her forced way was insulted and slandered by the women of the town.
This forced Marlena to show her most vulnerable and helpless side in front of the public without reservation. In this courtroom that is supposed to administer justice, this is a great irony of human nature, especially the judge's aggressive interrogation, which is completely trying to blame Marlena's way of life on Arena alone.
It seems that Marlena is the embodiment of evil; It is the culprit who destroys other people's families; It's a cancer that disturbs the security of this town. I have to say that if you want to add sin, there is no excuse. At this moment, having lost her husband, there is no one to protect her; Moreover, the men in the courtroom were forced by the deterrence of their wives to lie one after another, splashing dirty water casually, such Marlena, naturally weak and pitiful, and unable to argue, so she shed aggrieved, helpless, and sad tears.
It was from this moment that Marlena finally decided to live differently, right or wrong!
The next day, in the face of the unreasonable demands of the lawyer who defended her, Marlena half-pushed and did not refuse. Moreover, she also cut off the long hair she had kept for many years, determined to start from scratch. When she reappeared in the town and appeared in front of everyone, her beauty, which was hotter than the sun, seemed to show her change and rebirth to those with bad intentions.
However, she still forgot that she was weak and that she was just a widow with no one to protect her. Therefore, her change, or the provocation and confrontation of the injustice of fate, seems to amaze everyone, and it can be regarded as brave and decisive, however, in the end, it is just an egg hitting a stone, which becomes a tragedy, or even a laugh.
Of course, this also allows us to see the inevitable results in the context of the times.
There may be more such tragedies, and the only thing to be thankful for is that in the tragedy of Marlena, a glimmer of hope is finally revealed, and her military husband is not dead, but only because he is too seriously injured, so he has not returned. In any case, this is a great thing for Marlena, who is helpless and bullied at will. She finally has someone to protect herself, and from then on, those ill-intentioned eyes, those slanders and slanders, will stop in front of the man next to her.
Beautiful! Sicilian Legends: Monica Bellucci's classic film depicts the bleak life of a glamorous widow
3, "How Deep Do You Love Me"
Released: 2005, 95 minutes long
Film type: Cheap love, tearing the bottom line of human nature
Special Comments:
Any film with Monica Bellucci is unusual, and her beauty is a serious distraction from the viewer's attention. Therefore, even if director Bertrand Blier (Lust Street Lover) played all of Brecht's distancing methods, "How Deep I Love Me" still failed to defamiliarize Monica Bellucci in the slightest.
In fact, this is an open secret: the director, screenwriter, cameraman, and actors of any film that invites Monica Bellucci will do everything in their power to make the world's sexiest woman perform her best as usual. The whole world wants to see her, and no one can resist this collective will, not even Vincent Cassel, a fierce-looking horse-faced man hated by the whole world, and Monica Bellucci's first husband, is no exception. Vincent Cassel personally cooperated with the most murderous and thorough attempt to date in "Irrevocable", and further expanded on the large-scale performance of his wife.
