    I watched it on MP4. After watching it for five minutes, my hands tremble, and it was broadcast to the next film "Salesman". I watched it while thinking, "Hey, Bible salesman is really a common profession~" It took ten minutes of "Salesman", and then I realized that I had put the wrong film...I didn’t realize that the language had changed. Alzheimer’s, dementia, and...

    A detailed description of the environment and spiritual loneliness of the thief. Life is nihilistic. What is needed to resolve it? He regards theft as art and is not constrained by moral laws and other norms. In prison, time and space are no longer free, and love is the only hope. He once again regarded love as an art and devoted himself to it with all his strength. All things are just a form of resolving loneliness. The feeling of emptiness is similar to exhaustion, not as pure as it is, and...

    The pickpocketing version of "Crime and Punishment" is like a novel that omits a large amount of psychological description and is compressed to 75 minutes. Although the impression is boring, there is a lot of aftertaste. I really like baroque music on contemporary themes. Ballet on the fingertips, these beautiful men stroke their fingers, do I think too...

    It was amazing to see Bresson for the first time. The pickpocketing process is like magic, and the inner changes of the characters are like ups and downs of novels (and not written on their faces at all). The coldness of "no acting" (Khan, so that Akikorismaki’s no acting is more humorous), it is said that he never reuses an actor, because "a movie has absorbed all their energy...

    8.0/8.0 A large number of scenes of the protagonist Michell and two other accomplices collectively committing crimes at the train station are connected in series. Although there is no stunt, it is the most delicate and beautiful description of the theft scene. It was called "fingertip ballet" by later generations. Then, you will understand how superficial, how false and rough the theft scene in "A World Without Thieves" is. The legends of the thieves and thieves in Hong Kong and Taiwan movies...

    10.0; The subjective perspective in the film is often part of the omniscience perspective in the narrative of the film itself. In this film, Bresson undoubtedly brought the subjective narrative derived from "Death Prison Escape" into an almost pure The boundary between the movement of the camera and the time has drawn an incredible line of...

    The concise form kills those fancy police films in seconds. The discussion on the social and essential nature of criminals is just right. The male lead is really good, and he is definitely a classic image in the thieves world. But after refusing the rescue of his mother, friends, and the police, he finally believed in love. Bresson didn't often leave such a living,...

    In the introduction of the CC version, Paul Shrader said that the use of the music in this film is abnormal; the climax of the narrative is deliberately eliminated, the information is written in the diary, and the narration is repeated with the real scene many times; the characters are left behind for a long time before and after the action. Of course, all this makes the final scene extremely moving. Bresson said that he is not suppressing performance, but intending to perform unconscious...

    Compared with the original version of "Crime and Punishment" by the Soviet Union in 221min, Bresson seemed to have written an afterthought. The actors have no expressions, but Paris has...

    less, less, more

    Less is more is easy to understand, but difficult to achieve for directors and actors who are generally used to being overly expressive.
    Bresson's movements are actually not many. First, the subject matter occupies a high level, which is more philosophical and poetic, and then the picture and...

    Excerpts from film reviews in junior high school

    The whole movie unfolds in the form of Michelle's diary. He is no ordinary thief. In his small attic, he read a lot of books and was deeply influenced by nihilism and Nietzsche's philosophy of superman. Deep narcissism is like a blanket, which makes him feel that he is a special human being and has...
