The story of "Ahlat Ağacı" progressed very slowly. Surprisingly, the three-hour film length did not really fly by. The audience’s viewing experience was like being trapped in an extremely large novel. Philosophy, religion, politics, and moral problems are intertwined. Fortunately, the final ending of the film is worth a long wait. Director Nuri Bilge Ceylan gave up the beautiful interference and unfolded the story in a more realistic way, finally integrating all the main lines of the story together. The final scene of the film resolves the conflict between the old and the new generation in two ways. For better or worse, the audience can choose which ending is real and which is a dream. Although a lot of poetry is missing, it does not mean that these fragments are unobtrusive, just like the towering white mountains, reminiscent of Abbas Kiarostami.

The scene where the son opened the old man and threw the note on the ground was really a moment of mixed feelings. Ceylon is also a true master of film-making interpersonal dilemmas today. In "Hibernation", what everyone said makes sense, but the more communication, the farther the distance. In "Wild Pear Tree", such a young and self-righteous thorn-headed Sinan is portrayed. From ideals to writing to religion and then back to family, he can cause unpleasant topics and embarrassing situations insincerely at any time. Whether it is the city of Canakkale on the Dardanelles Strait, or the hometown of Çan, an hour away from the city, they are always shrouded in the mist that is naturally isolated from human beings. Another provocative Trojan horse. The transition of the film is very beautiful. As soon as the snow falls, with the Bach Passakalia fugue often jumping into the big scene, Sinan becomes a soldier in the snow in the eastern Kurdish region. The father-son relationship, from accommodating to conflict to possible reconciliation, developed step by step between the teahouse and the farm. At the end, the well water did not appear miraculously. What will happen to the relationship between the two?

The kiss under the tree, the dream in the car, the loser's father who gambled, the chatter of literary ideals, the long conversation, the autumn and winter of Turkey. The top ten three hours of movie viewing experience in 2018. Even though his hometown is so beautiful, he still believes in living elsewhere. "The ship sails in the distance. Summer nights, in love, drunk, and soaked in the rain. Wouldn't it be nice if it rained suddenly now, and we were soaked, and then we were struck by lightning?"
