      unintelligible movie

      The dubbing of the whole movie is really bad enough. Also, I just don't understand what their lines are trying to say. The whole movie is in line with the effect of a dream, very strange. Everyone has no idea. I feel like I'm going to sleep for a while.
      Watched the movie while staying awake. Each paragraph seems to have little connection. Really dreaming is almost the same as the plot in the movie.
      I haven't seen many Italian movies, their culture is too different from China. It...

      boring and disgusting

      Disgusting, disgusting, disgusting, there are many ways to express the anger, loneliness and struggle of women, and it is the same to express that women also have sexual desire and love. For example, why attack the genitals, because it is effective, because women often face rape when they need to attack. The anger of women was completely dispelled by the jokes of the film, and the anger and words that lost the background were also intercepted and amplified into absurdity....

      Fei's dream

      I knew he was dreaming from the moment he got off the train and felt in the wrong place with green grass in front of him. Everything that happened after that was his dream. After seeing him stray into the Doctor's mansion, I still have a little doubt, why the noise and movement on the train are not reflected in the dream? This is not in line with the theory of "Inception". Then I saw him holding a vibrator and couldn't stop for a while. It was immediately confirmed...

      Chapter 19

      Look ignorant. Looking at it under the premise that it is known to be a dream, it feels absurd and seems absurd and reasonable (after all, "there is everything in a dream").

      At first I thought it was similar to "Daughter's Country", with warm fragrance and nephrite jade, curling spring dreams, but I didn't expect it to be much more radical. First, there are sitcoms of busy women satirizing men who only think about that, and then there are...

      The city of women from the perspective of men

      Fellini demonizes women and mocks feminism from a male perspective. Just like what the opening teenage girl said; you men seem to respect and understand our female rise on the surface, smile on your face, but in your heart is a hypocritical mockery, you mock us in your heart. Director Fellini is indeed a talented but lustful and vulgar playboy. His movies appear from time to time to visit brothels, sexual fantasies, and carnivals with big breasted beauties, which are always a true portrayal...

      Big breasts and fat buttocks, a lifelong dream. The pure stream of consciousness, flowing through all the women in my life, made me fall into a daze. Trains are really the most fantastic means of...

      Eight and a half are the Vanity Fair of sensual dogs and horses, Ladies City is the big spring dream of the relationship between the sexes, the same is the carnival temperament and Feifei's imagination, Mastroianni opens the adventure journey by the train, the sexual hint is obvious, after that The female boxing attack and the stench of male power are the objects of irony. The male protagonist has been chased many times, reflecting a kind of fear and desire to escape, and at the same time he...

      A dream is set, and the description of the confession of boys' sexual psychology is thorough and sharp. The soundtrack uses a lot of industrial metal, which is a bit harsh, revealing his anxiety about modernity at the time. Thinking that Fellini has spoken so bluntly about men and women, it is more clear and shocking than in the eight and a half films, and after watching this film, I feel that I will not love it any...

      In a dream, it begins with a train and ends with a train. Loved this movie unexpectedly! Almost 5 stars. I originally thought that the later works were incomprehensible, although I couldn't say that I fully understood it, but I almost understood the meaning and the mentality of what to express! It's not actually feminism. The two Fellini films I watched today are the stories of the Italian man Jing after his brain. This is the largest one at the festival! The woman in the elevator who took him...

      20.10.25 The four-and-a-half star Fei Fei in the library continued to dream, and Marcello's behavior became more and more like Fei Fei. The City of Ladies is basically a color version of the eight and a half films that are more erotic and erotic. Fei Fei, who has become famous, has no troubles in his career, and even his dreams are more pure. The rise of feminism, the rampant popularity of hippies, and the cult setting of the Doctor's Secret House make the film more intense in the 1980s. It is...

Finally, Lao Shi came to a large hotel where a grand feminist seminar was being held. Lao Shi walked into the hotel, hoping to find...
