    Poverty and ignorance may be ugly, while maximizing the primitive nature of human nature, barbarism is also...

    The arrogant is about to have a fear of heights. In other words, why doesn't the old lady teach others to catch fish and only teach her daughter-in-law? If her daughter-in-law didn't come to the craft, wouldn't it be lost../Or to keep a kind-hearted person to have fish to eat, young people are not ignorant, they are just evil. His son is also lacking enough. In fact, I think the whole film is a funeral. The ruthlessness of the Orientals is too...

    1. It's good enough in Japan, unique, side singing, set, exaggerated and smooth scene changes, super contrast of light and dark, amazing; 2. There are few shots, and the actors are all too good! 3. Poverty and ignorance inevitably lead to sin. The love between mother and son is more...

    I am very fortunate to have watched "Aoshan Festival Examination" at the Beijing Theater at the Beijing Film Festival. The film is like King Kong subduing demons, facing life and death. There are many scenes of animals intercourse and swallowing in the film, which is a metaphor for the whole film when placed on humans. The expression of lust is fierce and endless. The whole movie is dead. The Yuwu family was wiped out, and everyone murdered like they were doing farm work. Ah Ling knocked out...

    Faced with human nature in such an extreme environment, no amount of civilization can hide the inferiority of primitive...

    Kinoshita Keisuke also has a version, I will find it another day. The film tells the story of a custom, and a custom is a local tradition. There is such a vague existence in the boundaries of human cognition, the existence of materialism, and handing over the heart to God. Pushing human desires to their original state, emphasizing a nature and nature given by the Creator, is the state closest to God. Life is like an ant. Suffering keeps him shrinking and returning to...

    People trapped in poverty and isolation live instinctively like animals, and the empty mirror of animal metaphors strengthens the visual impact. Even if many things have been heard so many times, the intuitive presentation of the picture is still...

    Birth, old age, sickness and death in a civilized system. The barbarity and cruelty in the modern sense are restrained and spread coldly under the domination of certain beliefs, as naturally as the animal world. And what is the difference between the modern society that exalts "humanity"? The multiple interpretations against nature, humanity, and humanity all feel excessive, because the film is only for presentation and for feeling. Probably my own narrow vision of life requires such works,...

    This is hell on earth, and it is also a certain degree of human reality. Eye-popping moral decline has become commonplace in daily life, and human beings live, mate and reproduce like animals. Many times, the analogy of animals is used to switch transitions: the master and the mating are like snakes, the young are like mice, the stinky people are like dogs, the mother is like a night owl, and the dead father is like a big tree. The only awake Alingpo, after arranging the affairs of her children...

    Research on Narayama Festival

    In extreme poverty, all morality and decency are gone, only the desire to survive. One is to feed the stomach, and the other is to reproduce.

    There are three scenes in the movie that made a deep impression. First, A Ling knocked off her teeth and showed off to everyone. In this environment, aliens...
