      "Story" excerpt

      non-linear narrative

      The hero meets the heroine while on vacation in Austria. The first third of the film shows scenes from the early days of the affair, but some flash-ins jump into the middle and later stages of the relationship. The middle third of the film is interspersed with flashbacks in the early stages and flash forwards in the later stages. The final third is mostly the final days of the hero and heroine, interspersed with flashbacks to the middle...

      about Art

      Nicolas Roeg's Bad Timing, the Chinese name is randomly translated as "sexual coma", although the film does have "sexual"; there are also "coma". I posted this place because there is a psychiatrist played by Art Garfunkel.
      After breaking up with Paul, Art has invested a lot in the field of performance. The other two works that Mike Nichols collaborated with include 22 Catch, but this Bad Timing is a non-comedy protagonist who takes the lead from the beginning to the end. The selfish,...

      Sexual coma

      British director Nicholas Roig’s "Sexual Coma" (also translated as "Bad Timing" 1980), I actually watched it as early as the end of 2001. This time the disc dealer changed to a different cover. When I saw it, I immediately remembered . The charming Yumina left her husband who was 30 years older than her and met Linton, a professor of psychology, and the two began a close and close relationship.

      understand me less and love me more

      Love me, sexy because of my mystery. You don't need to know me, you just need to love me more.

      Love me, no reason, for mystery and hard-to-extricate sex, for the courage to recklessly, for the more I love, the deeper the panic, for my gentleness in the sun, for my more and more lingering love for you, for not being let down Body and youth. I like to put the rose brooch on my sweater in autumn. I said this is the bloody rose of the Nightingale that Wilde saw. You don't need to...

      An old movie under PPTV by chance. Flashbacks, interlude use of techniques, people do not feel abrupt. There is a desire to see the story to the...

      If the story is linear, it will be found that it is too weak, which will lead to a step away from becoming a classic. The same crazy editing as dont look now but one less need to deal with it this way. But the setting of several scenes and the right soundtrack and the iconic treatment of the sex scene are still eye-catching. To love someone is to love the bad side of...

    Evaluation action

    The reason why I chose this film from dozens of DVDs is the theme of "sex", which verifies the quasi truth of "sex is as fierce as a tiger". However, when I watched the film, I found out that what the film tells is not what the synopsis said. What people can see is: a girl who suffered from repeated family setbacks in her teenage years, she is happy on the surface but melancholy on the inside. She loves Linton, she and his lingering...
