(5 stars in 20160316) Photographer Pierre Lhomme was still young at the time and had not taken important works. After "Shadow Army", he took Bresson's "Four Nights of a Dreamer", Erstache's "Four Nights" The Mother and the Whore, Avery's Maurice's Lover, Nutan's Rodin's Lover, etc. He said that after working with Mayville, he felt that he had truly become a photographer. Another older than him, Walter Wottitz, who was in charge of planes, ships and special effects photography, later filmed...

So back to the question: what is a good war movie? War and death are inseparable deformed twins, one is a broken limb and stump arm stained with red blood, and the other is greed, hatred, delusion and suspicion infiltrated by black. The entanglement of black and red has become a Mobius that humans cannot break free. Melville, on the other hand, magnifies the darkness in the gloom and sees through the most horrific war: human...

Labyrinth-like urban space + common tragic fate of characters + World War II theme = lone killer + red circle + silence of the sea. In addition, there are reflections on the brutal methods of the resistance movement and moving demonstrations of human nature. Everyone is extremely vulnerable, but they are strong. In fact, this is the hero. Heroes are people too, and they don't need to be deconstructed. The protagonist's two in-painting and one off-screen arrests are touching. The shades of blue...

There is no heroism in the resistance, only betrayal and exhaustion Melville is hard and...

4.5 Simone Signoret endowed Mathilde with flesh, emotion, and power, and then destroyed each of those qualities. Too bad February 23, 1943 was not a...

#重見#SIFF@白美慧; the incomparably elegant blue-gray tone is like the faint light that wants to break free from the darkness before dawn, without romantic revolutionary feelings, every decision and every move is full of precise and painful arrangements; The tentacles of war of individual things, covered with icy death and trembling with fear, these shadows were and are gone...

#SIFF# Baimeihui / Jiucheng. Extremely grim, (almost) anti-climax resistance film. The faint glow of a small lamp against a dark blue-black background is the most common scene throughout the film, a visual metaphor for France during World War II. (“Strike a match in the middle of a place in the middle of the night does not make you see things more clearly, but only the darkness that surrounds you.” –...

#SIFF Minimalist narrative, oppressive control of atmosphere, silent eye dialogue, group portraits. From the beginning to the end, the cold blue shrouded, and the moment when the last emotion erupted, it was frozen from the top of the head to the soles of the...

It's like watching them leave one by one, watching on the big screen can no longer hold back the tears like the first time, even if there is no scene that directly depicts the battlefield and forced confessions, the cruelty is still in the director's bone-chilling, extreme restraint, The high-contrast technique is shown to stab the heart and the lungs. Even if the dawn is faint, I can still believe that it will shine in the sky after all, not only because of the pioneers who did not care about...
