    Trilogy of Loneliness / Rédemption bis, a great melodrama concealed by the other two brilliance. Fellini, a neo-realist, painted a panorama of Italy's small figures struggling to survive after World War II, and deepened their hearts. The glitzy banquet and "This is life" of 30,000 lire. The poor, who had emptied their savings for illusory hopes, turned to fake priests; and the latter gradually became infected with real mercy. But this is not the light of God after all, it's just the momentary...

    Fellini's "Glory and Salvation" trilogy. "The Great Road", "Liar" and "Night of Kabylia" are all full of attention to the marginal characters at the bottom. The director's action trajectory and psychological foreshadowing of the characters are very accurate and detailed, and their temperament is unified. "Liar" focuses on "August", an old liar who runs across the rivers and lakes, and depicts his past cheating career. Even if a character with moral flaws like August has repented, the ending is...

    The most important psychological quality of a liar is to completely eliminate the sense of responsibility. But as time goes by, most people will be shared by the social responsibility range. If you can't be completely stone-hearted, then as soon as possible, like the Baron, have a more suitable gaming platform....

    In the other part of the trilogy, the liar is a special social role, but under Fellini's lens, it does not appear a little abrupt or uncomfortable. The natural and delicate narrative process directly hits the theme of human nature. The final ending is significantly different from the simple and rude ending that caters to the public with its unique screenwriting style, which is commonly seen in genre films of "the influence of bad guys and perfect...

    8/10 was overshadowed by the other two maybe because Juliette was not the protagonist in this one? I remember that when I watched the other two films, I was in tears and my heart was desperate. A liar is still a liar. The brilliance of human nature seems to have flashed a few times, but it was all in vain. Picasso does not know if he will go down the same path and be named Nino at the beginning. Surprised to find out that Fellini's soundtrack and Coppola's soundtrack are the same person, it's a...

    It doesn't feel like the main road and Night of Cabiria is heavy, maybe Giulietta Masina is just a supporting role, this film is still a consistent realistic film, of course, it is mainly based on the lower class, but it tells the story from the perspective of the victims and perpetrators of the times, Ferry Ni didn't use the protagonist's gravity to strike cruelty, but the gloom and loneliness are still there. It feels more low-key and pragmatic, but it is also much duller than the other two...

    Fellini retains the realistic tendencies of Italian neorealism in the early solitude trilogy (The Great Road, The Liars, and Cabiria), and there is no presumptuousness, magic and symbolism of the later stage in the shots, but is full of emotion. The liar's last paragraph presents a sensational...

    The protagonist is also a liar, and the liar in the liar is wonderful, and this film is a heavy reality. Why did the three characters go to the back with only one line...

    1. It is impossible to tell the ignorance and greed of the poor people in the countryside, which is a temptation that no one can refuse; 2. The father's love is given weight on the daughter, if the daughter learns that the father's deceit and death are because of How should my daughter face this fatherly love? 3. To die on the edge of a cliff is very pleasing. Not worth the last rescue that leaves you dying in...

    After thinking about it, give it 3 stars, because it can't reach 4 stars, 3.5 stars. Why do many people comment that the 4K restoration version is a bad guy's conscience discovery and there must be no good ending? August really couldn't bear it, but he didn't return the money! He wanted to keep it for his own daughter to go to college! No matter what the motives are, at best it's black and black. To say it is also evil, it is too bad for them to choose these poor people to deceive them! Two...

    Self-reflection under existentialism

    The film "Liar" and "Broad Road" have many things in common: the director rarely uses abrupt film effects when telling this philosophical story, and the main method of the film is also symbolic; at the same time, the plot is based on the "Broad Road". The "journey" model has a looser structure and...

  • Augusto: [Contemptuously] You give your wife every cent! Jerk!

    Picasso: [Trying to get approval] But, Augusto, I...

    Augusto: [Lecturing] People like us can't have families. One must be free to move. You can't have a wife. You must be alone. The most important thing when you're young is freedom. It's more important thn the air you breathe. You're scared now! What will you do when you're my age?

  • Rinaldo: [Mockimgly] Do you still carry a skull with you?

    Augusto: [to Picasso in the back seat] If this guy shakes your hand, count your fingers. You'll be missing a few. He'd cheat his own mother.

    Rinaldo: Look who's talking!
