Perfect Strangers/完美陌生人/Perfetti sconosciuti

This movie reminded me of the well known "12 Angry Men", building the whole story by dialogues.

Mobile phones, as the connections among people, cover so many secrets of people. They are like masks, witnessing maybe a whole different face under the mask. One of the lines in the movie said, "People are fragile". It may not be because people are fragile, but because everyone has under-table life. You have more under-table life, you have more secrets, the difference between your true face and your mask is bigger, and you would be more fragile.

Yet, every adult has some under-table life, how can you find someone who could share all his life thoroughly to others?

The ending part is very splendid. The sudden turning shows the audience a more real possibility: everyone may choose to live in an imaginary life. The intervention true reality and imaginary reality made the movie very meaningful.
