Reflections on The Master of Lies

I accidentally turned to the movie "The Master of Lies", and the word "Lies" touched my heart. Recently, I met my good friend after many years. She thinks I'm still silly and sweet, and I'm already a millionaire woman. When chatting, she will tell me all kinds of stories about life. I hope I can learn to grow up through these stories, learn to live in my favorite way, and learn to live independently!

After listening to a lot, I seem to understand something, but I seem to have learned nothing. After all, this is someone else's story, or her story. I haven't experienced it, so it's not my feeling after all.

But the more I watch this movie, the more scared I am! The man is a professional liar, constantly changing his identity to cheat. After being discovered and retaliated by the other party, he covered up his crimes in an extremely cruel way and even killed people. And the woman he wants to cheat on, the picture he gets along with that woman is beautiful, dazzling and warm. If this film doesn't switch frequently between men's fraud, crime and deep affection for women, anyone will think it is a beautiful story about romantic love!

I have been worried about the plot in my heart, and I have been praying that the female host will wake up quickly and not indulge in the sweet words of the male host. Until the end of the film, the story came to a big reversal. It turned out that the whole incident was arranged by the female host, in order to retaliate against the male host for molesting her sister and raping her when she was 15 years old, and reporting her father's treason! Finally, the man got the punishment he deserved, and the woman won completely!

But I still have a lingering fear. If the hostess didn't know who he was, would she be addicted to his sweet words? Because when a person is old and his wife dies, even with relatives, that kind of loneliness will still linger! Looking at the criminal history of China, how many cases are fraud! Combined with my own life experience, I can only deeply sigh: people are unpredictable! I don't want to guess people's hearts, but many times I feel that it is impossible to prevent!

There is also a dialogue in the film that impressed me deeply. The man asked the woman, "Why?" The hostess said, "The only way to save yourself is to face you!" I immediately understood what the hostess meant. I believe that for decades, men have been her lingering nightmare, so even if she is old, full of children and grandchildren, she still has to set up this game carefully, just to relieve the nightmare in her heart! Me too? From the ugly divorce and forced marriage of my parents when I was a child, to my riddled marriage, and then to the ridiculous brotherly love that was cold to my heart, I found that I dared not look back. It's too cold, colder than the Antarctic glacier. That kind of cold penetrates the soul, so I can only work hard alone. No matter how tired, lonely and bitter I am, I will never trust myself to anyone again. Only when I give everything to myself and I can control it, can I feel safe!
