    It is the same as those Japanese animations invested by Netflix: delicate but without feeling, even the black and white pictures have the effect of "old-fashioned", as if everything is missing, but it seems that every detail is the result of careful calculation rather than the emergence of inspiration...

    After watching it with great anticipation, I thought, oh, oh, this is it. From the director's point of view, this may be his full of affectionate memories and the writing that must be completed, but for me, I only see the details of private life and the words of the big era. The best part is probably the beginning, those suds that mop the floor like waves at the end, the soap bubbles recede, and the clear water reflects the reflection of a tiny...

    Cleo's rebirth takes place at sea. All the rolls ahead of her and symbolizing her passivity were overturned by a huge side heel. At that moment, her initiative reached its peak. The camera and us were no longer the masters of her activity space, and she stepped into the wall. In the slanted painting, the daily wave at the foot rises to the inner wave of externalization. She listens and restores herself, and gains the bath of holy light and the embrace of the whole family. Stripped of the...

    Cleo's destiny is dedicated to an unconditional life, and she's always ready to sacrifice herself for those she loves. There is a silent power to seeing the final cry and...

    I had a lot of expectations before reading it, because it's hard not to think of my own book as such a private semi-autobiographical story from an old age. . . After reading it, I was not disappointed, and even a little moved: men are all unfortunate, and in a world where there are only women and children, people and human relationships are very important. Some people say that it is bland, but I just think its shortcoming is that it deliberately puts too many coincidences and wonders into it,...

    Whenever Cuarón turns his lens to the mundane details of life, [Rome] glows with endless poetic light. The film is essentially a story of two women being abandoned by men. Behind the scheduling and long shots that are clearly on par with Hou Hsiao-hsien, their dignity, especially the heroine, is the most moving part of the film. Cleo's silence is like the water she poured in the yard, with it you can see the big plane flying in the sky. However, whenever Cuaron was eager to shoot this big plane...

    I can't tell how well Cuarón has learned about Mexican history, but he doesn't put any effort into researching what a job babysitting...

    Rome is an expression of emotion

    Thanks to Alfonso Cuaron for his genius, his experiences and his creative impulse to share with the world.

    I just wanted to write a movie review, but the rush of thoughts in my head fueled my ambitions, and let's see where I can stop.

    There have been many reviews of Roma, and there will be more (it...

    Rome

    I watched Roma at the IFC center with my friends. If it is out of ten, it would be a 7. Out of control, long-winded, dazzling, the warmth of the upper middle-class fun, it is no problem to cut it for half an hour (a big failure at the beach). Plain and simple will be more powerful.

    The first half...

Roma quotes

  • Pepe: When I was older, I used to be a sailor. But I drowned in a storm. The waves were huge!

    Cleo: [Looking with concern at the water] Sofi! Paco! Near the shore!

    Pepe: It was dark and there was lightning and I didn't know how to swim.

  • Sra. Sofía: What happened?

    [to Sofi]

    Sra. Sofía: Are you OK my love?

    Sofi: Cleo saved us.

    Sra. Sofía: [to Cleo] Thank you. Thank you.
