#72nd Cannes# Jury Award. It's much better than the short film of the same name, and it's space enough to clarify the neighborhood/ethnic politics in the short film that doesn't have time to explain clearly. In this sense, it is actually more advanced and more complicated than [Training Day]. The 2006 documentary "365 Days of Clichy-Monfermeil" by director Rad Lee (the background information of the 2005 French riots as a key plot) must also be referenced. At the beginning, the rhythm was too...

Compared with last year’s debut in Egypt, it’s much better. It has profound social observations and racial conflicts. It has an excellent scheduling and emotional rendering of the last conflict scene. Unfortunately, it is not from the short film work. Let's expand too much content, like a proposition composition for making a short film into a long...

A film that rethinks the class, power, and legitimacy of human society. The lion symbolizes power, and everyone indulges. The desire for power is an evil beast that needs to be controlled. Issa steals the lion cub, symbolizing the power of the lower class to divide the ruling class; Issa confronting the lion in the circus also symbolizes his gain...

Continuation of the short film style, the film is very powerful, the street scenes are real and exciting, and the final corridor battle scheduling is amazing. The questions thrown pointedly pointed to the status quo of France and even European countries. Behind the unsolvable proposition is deep reflection on the social system. Although there is a sense of design, the feature film debut as a director is really amazing. The karma in Victor Hugo's novel [Les Miserables] is also staged in the...

After watching it, you can probably understand why this director, who has never made a feature film before, can enter the Cannes main competition with his first shot. The look and feel of the entire movie ranged from "getting better" to "shocking". It started with a celebration parade with the Arc de Triomphe as the background, and then three plainclothes policemen, aimlessly patrolling the streets, and groups of colored people, constantly triggering and Escalated violent conflicts, a vicious...

"As It Should Be" should have the status of movie history; "Wandering Dipan" stole Palme d'Or, you can consider giving it to this...

Too much neatness and calculation should be a flaw, so that this outstanding debut with excellent scheduling and solid narrative can be regarded as a contemporary movie (not for long). Somehow I think of Zide Dolly's "Humiliation", which uses the same structure (each character has a standpoint) to show complex social contradictions. Society is like a ham. It only cuts an emotional cross-section with fiction, and it is enough for us in this miserable world to applaud again and again. But a wise...

Continued the style of the short film, especially the handheld and street sense. The action scenes are actually very exciting, and the tension and the relationship between the characters that erupt at any time are also very attractive. The plot part is actually an expansion of the short film, with more characters and the ending part. However, the overall plot connection is still a bit hard, and the rhythm is also a bit slow in some places, which is a little...
