    #资料馆留影#Antonioni’s intentions are self-evident, industrial pollution, alienation between lovers, the alienation of people from the environment, and accompanying illnesses. A female patient who often hears hallucinations is in a morbid and changeable society. The earth seems to be shaking all the time. She is always uneasy and wants to escape. She has even reached the bow of the port, but her language is not clear. This kind of confusion is no stranger to us at the moment. In each era of drastic...

    Perhaps it is a visual expression of Camus’ absurd philosophy. The colors mixed with different shades of smoke and dust from the factory just blended out a series of cold and desiring Morandi colors, which made people more prominent. The feeling of eternal alienation from the environment and between people. Human beings are like objects placed in the environment without any purpose or connection. Electronic noise accentuates this purposeless Sisyphic absurdity, just like The beautiful song of...

    In fact, I think that the whole movie is that the heroine needs to come. Can't stand literary...

    Every black-and-white film director just started to transform to color, and he did not hesitate to use large color blocks and high contrast. In the movie, everyone escaped from a plague in the fog. The man said that he had been vaccinated; the audience outside the movie wore a mask and scanned three codes and entered the library. I saw that in the middle of the film, I suddenly received a call from the community, telling me to do it tomorrow. Nucleic acid—At that time, I briefly realized that...

    8.0 The tenth anniversary of Anton's death. The first color film does not like the setting of the protagonist’s spirit that is really problematic. There may be metaphors, but the intention is actually obvious. In fact, modern civilization does not oppress people's spiritual world, but exposes its own barrenness. Unable to enter the peaceful island, all we can do is to fly around the dense...

    The color is bright like a yurt, and the music is like an alien in a third-rate science fiction film landing on the earth. The most unbearable is the lingering middle-class bourgeois anxiety, feeling that a big mouth can be cured and the illness dragged on for two...

    #重看#@电博; filled with disturbing noises, empty streets, abandoned industrial land, like ghost ships, all the external world is like the mirror reflection of the heroine's heart; panic as if she is in the desert Struggling, fleeing in the mist, lost in the ocean, the use of colors and emotional changes are comparable to textbooks; I love the singing passages of "Sea Monster" most, and the relationship between mother and child/family can be...

    A poem of nowhere.

    Reflecting on our existence, that's what Antonioni wants to do. There is definitely a sense of avant-garde in the 20th century.

    Compared with "Adventures", the sound processing in "Red Desert" is more like the unbearable noise of neurotic patients, and it also highlights the destruction of human...

    "haven't seen the ad"

    Whether it's the use of color or the so-called alienation of people from modern industry, I have to honestly say that this work made me decide whether the pace was a little too slow. It's heart-wrenching. I have to say that facing the impending separation, I actually felt a bit of reluctance in my...

Red Desert quotes

  • Giuliana: There's something terrible about reality and i don't know what it is. No one will tell me.

  • Giuliana: [voiceover: Giuliana is recounting a fable to her son, as a depiction of the fable is shown on screen] There was a girl who lived on an island. Grownups bored her, and frightened her too. She didn't like kids her age. They all pretended to be grownup. So she was always alone, with the cormorants, seagulls, and wild rabbits.

    Giuliana: [voiceover continues] She'd discovered a small beach far from town, with crystal-clear water and pink sand. She loved that spot. The colors of nature were so beautiful, and there was no noise. She'd leave only when the sun did too.

    Giuliana: [voiceover continues] One morning, a sailing ship appeared. It wasn't like the usual boats that passed by. This was a real sailing ship, the kind that had braved stormy seas all over the world - and who knows, maybe even beyond. Seen from afar, it was a splendid sight. But up close, it took on a mysterious air. There was no one aboard. It paused for a few moments, then turned, and sailed off, as silently as it had come. She was used to people's strange ways, so she wasn't surprised.

    Giuliana: [voiceover continues] But no sooner was she back on shore, when...
