    Well, I don't have Shakespeare culture, and most of the lines are not polished. However, under the temptation of the two cute uncles, if you can still keep your logic awake, Sha Lao has become a...

    The 47th Golden Lion is awesome! The fanciful black absurd drama, which is derived from "Hamlet", leaves behind the "cliché" of the Danish prince, and pushes the two little people ruthlessly to the wheel of history, looking at the material world on which they live, thinking about life and death The ultimate philosophical proposition of the play, the nesting of the play within the play characterizes the two dragon sets as the witnesses and grave diggers of their own...

    The faces of the two beautiful uncles when they were young are so beautiful that they ruined me! Looking at Juchaole's G-spot, it's accurate! After thinking about it, it should be in the range of...

    Before watching it, I expect that this is a film that is both elegant and popular. It should have a high-end and esoteric side, because it is the Golden Lion Award; it should also have an easy-to-understand side, because the label is comedy. But for Mao's high-end side, like a coin tossing, people's heads keep showing up? It's like climbing Mount Everest, my heart keeps twitching, my brain lacks oxygen and can't keep up with thinking, this mountain is the beauty of heaven and earth, and I have...

    Mindless and unhappy~ It’s refreshing to see the neurotic dog dad~ Along the way, the dog dad has become the father of modern physics, playing Galileo (law of free fall), Newton (gravity), Joule (conservation of energy) successively , Archimedes (buoyancy measurement volume corresponding to weight), watts (steam engine power), Wright brothers (airlift principle of flight), Schrödinger (probabilistic quantum mechanics), Einstein (one-dimensionality of time), really practical physics And a master...

    The art of performing death is above all else

    Gary Oldman was able to act silly back then, Tim Roth was also born with good quality at the time... This movie captures the fun of absurdity and speculation, but it is inevitable that there will be a trace of theatrical movies. Boring (after all, Hamlet's script is a bit too familiar). I can...

Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead quotes

  • Rosencrantz: Did you ever think of yourself as actually dead, lying in a box with a lid on it?

    Guildenstern: No.

    Rosencrantz: Nor do I, really. It's silly to be depressed by it. I mean, one thinks of it like being alive in a box. One keeps forgetting to take into account the fact that one is dead, which should make all the difference, shouldn't it? I mean, you'd never *know* you were in a box, would you? It would be just like you were asleep in a box. Not that I'd like to sleep in a box, mind you. Not without any air. You'd wake up dead for a start, and then where would you be? In a box. That's the bit I don't like, frankly. That's why I don't think of it. Because you'd be helpless, wouldn't you? Stuffed in a box like that. I mean, you'd be in there forever, even taking into account the fact that you're dead. It isn't a pleasant thought. Especially if you're dead, really. Ask yourself, if I asked you straight off, "I'm going to stuff you in this box. Now, would you rather be alive or dead?" naturally, you'd prefer to be alive. Life in a box is better than no life at all, I expect. You'd have a chance, at least. You could lie there thinking, "Well, at least I'm not dead. In a minute somebody is going to bang on the lid, and tell me to come out."

    [bangs on lid]

    Rosencrantz: "Hey you! What's your name? Come out of there!"

    Guildenstern: [long pause] I think I'm going to kill you.

  • Rosencrantz: Whatever became of the moment when one first knew about death? There must have been one. A moment. In childhood. When it first occured to you that you don't go on forever. Must have been shattering. Stamped into one's memory. And yet, I can't remember it. It never occured to me at all. We must be born with an intuition of mortality. Before we know the word for it. Before we know that there are words. Out we come, bloodied and squawling, with the knowledge that for all the points of the compass, theres only one direction. And time is its only measure.
