    How much love does it take for Berlin to make this...

    Modern love myths. It's a bit like the style of the director's previous "Transit", but it lacks a sense of historical depth and inspiration. The only surprise comes from the commentary on the origin of the city of Berlin, which unfortunately has not been fully integrated into the text of this love type. A few tricks alone can only show the director's superb skills, but it is difficult to hide the frailty of this...

    When Undine was "washed ashore" with a broken fish tank in the movie, she was scratched by the glass, which always reminded me of the settings of other water spirits who came to the world and were injured, such as fish scales being stabbed. These injuries may not be worth mentioning because they float away in the water. This may be destined to her destiny will always be water. When the two fell in love, the sound of breathing fluctuated with the surface of the water, which was extremely...

    "Transit" barely passed, "Phoenix" directly negative points, I have to suspect that it is inconsistent with Petzold, and a "Wendini" has been successfully patched. The curse of the water elf and the change of the city are allegories of love. The ex is always a catfish sneaking in the deep water. The director loves Berlin very much, another style of The Shape of...

    Petzold uses this film to prescribe a recipe for all of us living in a postmodern and postcapital society. Since everyone has experienced the pain of loss, it is better to dive down in these blank areas of the mind, find the mysterious water kingdom in the mysterious depths, and rediscover the power of myths in real life, just like becoming an elves. Wentini returned the diver's statue to the diver again. Now that moving forward seems increasingly impossible, it is better to reintroduce ancient...

    3.5, Continuing the polyphonic structure that Petzold loves, borrowing the background color of mythological narrative to decorate this contemporary love sketch, extending a series of elements (fish tank, diver, swimming pool) around the core image "water", the narrator ( The juxtaposition of the identities of the historical announcer) and the medieval elves, the sliding and strolling of emotions in the urban space of Berlin, the mapping of the memory of individual scenes by micro-models, these...

    The broken fish tank is fantastic. The narrative is concise and concise, the individual micro-emotional adventures and the grand urban landscape changes complement each other, and the examination of contemporary German society and the retrospect of history are as always. The characters under the camera are still suspended and hidden like ghosts, and the horror of "Yela" is magnified more than ten times here. The continuous emergence of "water" washes away the boundaries between fantasy and...

    4.5 "Wendini" is like a poem. The narrative and soundtrack match Wentini's water elf image. It is full of touching mystery and comfort like water waves. Maybe it's because the romance films are too few, and the male and female protagonists are like glue. I was deeply intoxicated by the passionate love situation (single dogs and lovelorn people, please watch this film carefully!!!), it turns out that Germanic people can be so romantic, the characters are full of emotions, people seem to be in...

    The myth of repression is also moving

    Because I can't help thinking about a girl, I still don't have the heart to read books. I haven't seen a movie to write a review for a long time, so I chose the Berlin Film Festival award-winning "Wendini" in the evening. Wendine is the water elf in German mythology, and the prototype of the little...

    Little visual tricks can't hide the thinness of the script

    German director Christian Petzold, who has always been good at shooting historical and political themes, unexpectedly turned to the love genre in his new work "Wendini", which was shortlisted for the Berlin competition this year, but there are actually traces to follow when you think about it ....
