    1. Aki's films are always so minimalist, cold and restrained: streamlined lengths and compact narratives, Bresson-style poker face performances, clean and concise storyboards, and cool color schemes. The retro old town with snow and ice, the poor and lonely marginal characters, and the cold humor of suffering. 2. But Aki never hesitated to add timely warmth and warmth to the cold and bitter, and the sympathetic and cordial background also penetrated into the hearts of the viewers with the rich...

    When there is nothing to lose, all damage or gain is taken for granted. It's not that you try to survive, it's the boat that lifts you into the air. What you can do is either bury your heart in the rubbish heap or press the canopy that you thought was out of...

    [Exhibition at China Film Archive] Unemployed, robbed, imprisoned and hacked, society is very cold; The three appearances of the pistol are important life turning points for the male protagonist, corresponding to the suicide of a co-worker, the toys of his girlfriend's son, robbery and revenge. "Bury my heart in the trash" echoes the previous work "Lonely Shadow in Paradise", and the frequently-appearing matches echo "The Match Factory Girl". The convertible car that opens and closes with one...

    Not to get enough food, but to live a better life, to live a life with dignity, affection, and taste. These are Finland's high welfare guarantees that you don't have to worry about it from the cradle to the grave, and it is also difficult to achieve. It is also Kaorismaki's basic consideration and deep care for the people at the bottom. The ships that go far away from home also carry his own hopes and fantasies, beautiful longings and loyal...

    I've never felt that Aki's movie is so funny before. Maybe I'm always distracted in front of the small screen.//"What does this button do?" The awkward half-minute silence that follows is the funniest moment of the day, and it's completely dissipated. The drama built by the plot All the stories are meaningless because they are all fake.//Archie has a kind of inexplicable romance. A man who has nothing is met by a woman who happens to be in love with a woman's child. If you are locked up, you...

    Bury my heart in the dumpster because he drove a garbage truck (by mistake) for the first half of his life, and then the hood was raised, which is exactly an act of burial. The male protagonist is lying on his back in the car that is about to be sold, playing with a broken music box, listening to the melody of the Internationale, and all kinds of emotions are attributed to this moment. The proletariat seems to be able to counterattack only by raising the hammer and being simple and rude. There...

    Another poor child who has been beaten to the bottom of his life, escaped, robbed, and smuggled through twists and turns, love is a powerful driving force, and finally ushered in the dawn of happiness, the cool old-fashioned sports car radio, that unusual calm and calm are very Aki, the unpretentious rhythm is still frosty and the atmosphere is quite charming, and the last intoxicating over the rainbow lit up, "Bury My Heart in the Trash Can" Uncle Pa couldn't steal the spotlight...

    I admire Aki's ability to tell such a good story in such a short period of time. Without further ado, it was a very simple escape, and a very romantic ending. He has always been unlucky, but after escaping from prison, he suddenly has a bright road ahead. If you change the director, the sea suddenly lights up, and the sirens are blaring... Finnish over the rainbow is really...

    #2021-11-13 Tickets: Continue to be exhausted, continue to escape from the mundane and repetitive life. At the pier he stopped me and asked, "Where are you going on the boat, my guest?" "I don't know," I said, "just get out of here, get out of here. Is it too cold in Finland, so I took a picture to be...

    minimalist jailbreak

    The second part of the Proletariat trilogy, the easiest movie ever to escape from prison.

    Kasurinam is a miner, and the film still begins with a signature description of the working environment, and then encounters a difficult situation. The mine where he worked was closed down, and his boss kindly...

    calm expression

    From the beginning to the end, the expressions of the characters are not very sad or happy, they are all calm faces, at most one glances up; even if they are beaten, robbed and arrested along the way. Although the film is not long, it is a bit boring at first glance.
    My favorite son. Finally, he...

  • Taisto Olavi Kasurinen: [Taisto is discussing with his cell-mate] Listen, Mikkonen!

    Mikkonen: I don't think I have a choice.

    Taisto Olavi Kasurinen: I'm thinking of getting out of here soon.

    Mikkonen: I see. How?

    Taisto Olavi Kasurinen: Don't know yet. Somehow.

    Mikkonen: Getting out is no big deal. Lots of guys have done it. But they were brought back and ended up doing twice as much time as before. They stayed around here, or went to Sweden, or headed to the nearest bar and got loaded. You've got to get further away, Italy or Africa, at least for awhile.

    Taisto Olavi Kasurinen: I've been thinking about Mexico or Brazil.

    Mikkonen: Even better. But that costs money. You think I haven't planned it all a hundred times? First, you need three grand for a passport, then ten more for the seamen to hide you in the cargo and to let you off somewhere around the equator. But it's dangerous. If the cargo starts to shift in a storm - Lots of guys have died that way. You gotta go underground until you get a passport and find the right ship.

    Taisto Olavi Kasurinen: How many years do you have left?

    Mikkonen: Eight, for manslaughter. But I'm innocent.

    Taisto Olavi Kasurinen: Are you?

    Mikkonen: At least in God's eyes. In a way, I did kill him, but the truth is I didn't. The result was the same: He died and I was sent here. All right, let's go, then. 37 now. Eight more would make me about 43, more or less. But I won't last three hours outside without killing somebody.
