Very ambitious and challenging work, religion, economy, intergenerational relationships, family, love, and various issues have been peculiarly and absurdly distorted, presenting a side that the world often ignores. The statue of Jesus dangling on the cross with one hand like a monkey, the degraded old man spent his 100th birthday in front of a room full of spooky guests, the father who set fire to swindle money, the son who wrote poetry and went crazy into the hospital, unique vision Language, between the seemingly loosely connected scenes, constructs the director's deep-level picture of the contemporary world in the minds of the director. On a strange and unknown night, strange things happened one after another: humiliating company employees were laid off with no dignity; immigrants were inexplicably attacked by bad elements, and the entire bus station stood by and watched; playing the magic of the big saw. The teacher really opened up the open belly of the audience who volunteered on stage. Amidst the chaos, a smoky-faced Karl appeared. He had just set fire to his furniture store, trying to defraud the fire insurance money. All night, everyone was in a hurry and couldn't close their eyes. On the second day, the level of chaos continued unabated. The insurance company and Carl were wrestling, and the whole city fell into a big traffic jam that was completely immovable. When everything seemed to be out of control at the beginning of the millennium, Carl slowed down. Slowly I realize the absurdity of the world, and gradually understand how difficult it is to be a "human"

Looking at Samsung, there is almost no story, and the rhythm is slow. If you come to the story, you will be very disappointed. But the film's photography and composition are very particular, like famous paintings, the lines and actors' performances are very absurd, with dark humor and philosophical thinking. I know another Anderson, I have a chance to read it again, it takes some strength.

Another person who engages in contemporary art, but not as sensual as Cai Mingliang and Abbas, and the interface is not friendly enough; there are two people with OCD in this world, and they are both called Anderson; there are indifferent spectators in every scene; Nordic artists don’t seem to live on the same planet as us, and feel like they are decades ahead; the still camera, the scheduling is all in the mirror, and there are several scenes that are not small in scale
