    After the climax of the New Left in the world in the 1960s, the 1970s seemed to be the "sage moment" after the passion, and everything was calm. So people were eager to break through the deadness inherent in the middle class, and carried out a series of sexual experiments to liberate the body. Shame is sold to faith, conscience is lost to doubt, and life is lost to nothingness. Unexpectedly, neither you nor I could afford the price of adventure, and the rare enthusiasm was chilled by the sudden...

    Three-and-a-half-stars, the United States in the 1970s is the background, the set (books and TV props) dialogues all point to that era, the "sexual liberation" movement, the Vietnam War, the Watergate scandal, Nixon, the wife swap club, etc. Ang Lee inserted them into this era. As a metaphorical story, "Ice Storm" is full of grief and sadness, but the dialogue between parents and children in the family is a bit oriental. The ice appeared several times, and finally spread between heaven and...

    Sex is the primordial driving force for universal family life. The passionate one starts with sex, the icy piercing ends with sex, and in the end, it's the family who can hug and keep warm after everything retreats. Ang Lee's straightforward use of Western sexuality shows that Western families are exactly the same as Eastern...

    A small group, each with their own thoughts scattered, fell into a demon overnight, and then gathered together with their own thoughts, secrets will no longer be secrets, but they are broken and speechless. This story seems to have been read a thousand times. Two interpretations of the Fantastic Four are the title. Eye. The last time the so-called other world was in the light, the main line was a freezing rain and several kinds of out-of-control madness. The previous time the so-called...

    Li An is indeed a wise and foolish immortal who hides a needle in Mianli. 70s, middle class, Watergate, sexual liberation, wife swap clubs. All surging undercurrents begin with silence and end with reconciliation. This is completely the logic of the Orientals. Even if it ends with death behind the scenes, it must be exchanged for surface peace. Several children in the film later became Spider-Man, Tommy, Lord of the Rings and the Devil. Ang Lee is really a great...

    The seven-year itch, the mid-life crisis, the period of life that must be faced, forbearance is one way, and stealing is another way. The ethics are brought out calmly, and people are like metabolisms slowly transforming. In an ice storm, the molecules condensed and the air is particularly fresh. After so much, everyone grew up overnight and accepted the ordinary and extraordinary days. The family is together, and peace is the greatest happiness. One Maguire and one Wood...

    They revealed the rebellion, indulgence, and evil impulses hidden in everyone's heart, to break through the restrictions of all rules, including morality, to seek completely personal and independent temptations and experiences, and to experience them.

    There are countless possibilities for people,...

    Everyone's life has an ice storm

    Cold and tingling, I only dared to breathe secretly and gently throughout the film. The sexual relationship between the characters has always been tense, whether it is an adult or a child. It is also the accumulation of such atmosphere that caused the tragedy of the final ice storm.

    This is not too...
