    I first came to see this movie because Ryuichi Sakamoto played a short demo in the documentary "Final Song". When the two walked into a desert, the camera shot up to show the vast wilderness at dusk, and the professor's soundtrack responded. rise. The movie didn't look for subtitles to watch, and with the spoiler, I didn't know much about it, but the movie itself didn't develop along any tight story line. It's just that on my newly purchased 32-inch 4K display, the lonely desert and sand dunes...

    Is this a tourist scene film? It shows so many rich and wonderful exotic scenes, but the emotional thinking is so thin that it can be disconnected at any time. It always feels like an irony of those who claim that travel can cleanse the...

    Herzog's landscape + Antonioni's emotion, the lost generation walks into Africa and then leaves Africa, what is behind the sky? The white people are fascinated by the natural wonders, and they are also watched and played by the natives as a wonder; they have no sense of the story, nor the director (as soon as they see Bertolucci filming an erotic scene, their head is big), the red light The use of expressionism is worth remembering. The two paragraphs included in Sakamoto Ryuichi's documentary...

    7 Life is limited but we don't know how to cherish it, so we can only wait for the end to come quietly in emptiness and splurge; the OST of this work is the second time the professor has composed music for Bertolucci's works after the last emperor; Watching this kind of literary and artistic film in the afternoon of a leisure weekend makes people feel that a precious afternoon is...

    Everything is limited. We always take the good times for granted. In fact, we all live behind the protective shell of modern civilization. Women would rather be enslaved than aimless. Basically faithful to the original, and you know Bertolucci understands it from the beginning. However, the deleted part is not very good, and the understanding is not very thorough. What is "freedom"? Is it...

    Existential Crisis and the Colonial Imagination

    The relationship between movies and love is really not that much - not any movie with two men and one woman is a love movie - it mainly discusses/shows the experience and influence of people who went to Africa to seek rescue after the war.

    However, these seem infinite

    The motive for watching The Sheltering Sky was "fullmoon" in Ryuichi Sakamoto's "async". The male voice at the beginning chanted:

    Because we don't know when we will die.
    We get to think of life as an inexhaustible well.
    Yet everything happens only a certain number of times.
    And a very small number,...

The Sheltering Sky quotes

  • Kit Moresby: According to Port, everyone eventually gets used to anything.

    Tunner: If that were true, it would be the end of progress.

    Kit Moresby: No, I'm sure it's true. I just don't know whether it's good or bad.

    Port Moresby: Neither.

  • Port Moresby: Could you be happy here?

    Kit Moresby: Happy? Happy? How do you mean?

    Port Moresby: I mean, could you like it here?

    Kit Moresby: How do I know? God, I wish you wouldn't ask me questions like this! Really! I can't answer them. What do you want me to say? "Yes, I'll be happy in Africa"? I like Ain Krorfa so much, but I can't tell whether I want to stay for a month or I want to leave tomorrow.

    Tunner: You couldn't leave tomorrow even if you wanted to. Can't get any information about how to get out of this place. No buses, not even a fruit truck. Nobody speaks English. Anybody for a nightcap?
