    Shocking, from nature to city to assembly line to people, and finally back to nature, echoing at the end! No wonder Coppola wants to be the producer! In the early 1980s, the assembly line was soon full of Asians and Latinos. At that time, KFC was still the full name! Later, the mysterious yellow of heaven and earth, and human beings, are all the same routines, right? I feel a little confused after reading...

    In general movie soundtracks, most of them are only used to enhance the audience's emotions and enhance the atmosphere of the movie. There are also some music movies, and music also exists as a narrative form, but the soundtrack in an unbalanced life is not only emotional and narrative. It also interweaves with the image a level of philosophical thinking that goes beyond the music itself, starting from the Genesis-like sky and the sky, to the birth of the mysterious primitive civilization of...

    Non-linear no dialogue. Philip Glass composes a reincarnation-like melody that is tragic and religious at times, assisted by shots that move back and forth between high-speed and slow-moving photography, forming the film's special language. The film records the events of nature and people in the form of Modern Art, and at the same time presents a story with these fragmentary events, and finally this theme is more...

    Explain the main idea: Humans are destroying the earth, and human progress is aimless and stupid. Juxtaposes natural imagery, slow motion processing, double exposure with footage of humans destroying the environment. The footage and the music start out slow, like a meandering stream, and then start to pick up speed, with cars, planes, and massive crowds scurrying around like busy ants. It is like a narrative poem composed of dynamic audio and...

    A visual feast, simply breathtaking. The beginning is the ingenious work of nature, with the psychedelic and grand music. In the middle is the creation of human society. The rhythm starts from the slow and fast pace, which makes people dazzled. The accompanying music is lively and lively, giving people an urge to dance. The ending returns to a gentler, the music is the psychedelic tune at the beginning, and the camera is aimed at a group of people who are confused and chaotic in the...
