    I was thinking about what kind of song and dance it was before (I read the label of the song and dance), but it turned out to be a musical that was sung all the way. The plot is simple and unsurprising, and it is also a traditional love opera. The sense of color is very good. The girly Catherine Deneuve is...

    Audiences who have been trained in Wagner's opera may be able to realize that: through singing from beginning to end and one shot of most of the scenes, Jacques Demy really used the medium of sound and painting to complete a certain dominant motive and music under an endless melody. drama...

    #BJIFF2021# Restoration version, the whole process is stunned, the first French music film to be enjoyed on the big screen, the style is quite special (like eating a lotus seed baguette or chocolate-flavored moon cake), a Palme d’Or award-winning film, nostalgic old-fashioned The story is more like the cinematization of a musical. It was a song and dance fairy tale belonging to Jacques Demy, which inadvertently evoked a long-sleep dream in the bottom of my heart. And this should be the peak of...

    4+ Explore the cinema on TV in the middle of the night. I only know that it was a very early Cannes, and the 21-year-old Deneuve was in it. But it turned out to be in the form of song and dance, which is endless, and the chapters are carried out in the form of a classical musical. What is appreciated is the ending, which makes the story highly generalizable. And the cluttered details. Those silent...

    She contributed the most beautiful opening I have seen this year, and I believe it is also one of the most classic scenes in film history. The gorgeous color layout and character clothing style are really pleasing to the eye, and the three-stage arrangement is so neat and meticulous. Such beautiful colors describe a sad and regretful story. In the end, the reunion scene of the two of them on the snowy night in Cherbourg is so memorable. With the string music rising, that look at each other is...

    I've been expecting a tragedy to happen, only to know it has happened when I see it. In contrast, "Half Life" is also about the miss of love. The hero and heroine are too victimized, so they are not as close to the truth of life as this...

    [Exhibition at China Film Archive] I really hate this kind of music film that only sings and does not dance. All actors climax the entire time, singing and speaking in a key octave higher than normal. Neither rhymes nor does it sound good. The chattering French succeeded in hypnotizing me like a lullaby. After waking up, I want to slap the actor's mouth: Can you speak well? ! The plot is also simple and bloody. Nothing but photography set art....

    The story may lack new ideas, but at least it is quite complete, and the arrangement of colors is really magical, and even has a psychedelic feeling, dividing the whole world into two halves, the singing of the whole process may be a little uncomfortable at first, but soon It can be integrated into it, and the themes of Geneviève and Guy are even more classic, and the emotional expression is very exciting, especially at the end, there is a sense of powerless...

    Realize your dream, that's it!

    I watched this film completely because I read the introduction of this film in a magazine many years ago, and the desire to watch it was in my heart. After so many years, my wish has finally been fulfilled, only to realize that the facts and non-human beings caused by the passing years are so...

    Time is too tired, wealth buys you drunk, and reality is drunk and tired.

    After watching this movie in the Charroble Cafe, this movie does not stimulate my desire to think, nor does it stimulate my thinking about desire, except for constantly comforting myself, people who are engaged in creative work, if they are even basic I don't have any aesthetics, so how can it be?...T
