      Once I saw a whale swimming with three harpoons stabbed inside him

      Once I saw a whale swimming with three harpoons stabbed into him, and it took him a whole day to die. Made it even weaker because of the harpoon I shot. The body is covered with scars from the struggle...

      The film has always been very dull, very depressing, and there are not many words. More shots focus on the eyes of those children, from the lack of spirit at the beginning to the rebellion later. In the end, Irene took Olaf's hand and said that it was a letter to my sister. I knew...

      Junior Shawshank

      With the cold and deep style of Nordic style, I finished the whole work. Personally, I think this is actually a work that is more suitable for Chinese people to shoot and show to Chinese people. The director put a lot of effort into casting roles, and just by looking at the actor's temperament, you can tell what role he is set for. The performance of Junxiu's c1 and wolf-like c19 in the film makes people can't help but praise them. In the opposite scene with the old actor, there is no...

      The bloody struggle in the cold world

      [Micro Film Review] The Norwegian film "The King of Alcatraz" begins with an injured whale struggling in the icy waters, rolling up layers of waves. It's a metaphor for hopeless struggle, a symbol of the pain, self-consciousness, and defiance of the grown-up world of boys on this isolated island.

      Movies are always cold. Winter in Norway is as cold as the eyes of violent wardens and officers. But the blood below the cold was awakened little by little, and the boys finally used their...

      The erosion of human nature by totalitarianism

      Warden: A rational person will reason with the students and talk about human nature. It is he who centralizes power and executes it smoothly. He knew what was right and what was wrong, but in order to maintain his system, he chose to ignore some of the wrong things, and even covered it up himself.

      Warden: A weak person, who dared not quit his job and raised his salary with the school administrator for 9 years, and eventually the depression of work made him deteriorate. performers and...

      The casting director has made great contributions. It is indeed rare to find so many actors with dozens of Viking faces. The narrative is still top-heavy. The director did not give more room for the behavior and psychology of the warden, so he blurred the motive of this revolution. If only because of covering up a soap-picking incident, the prisoner made such a strong reaction? Even if it is an adaptation of a true event, I think the film must have simplified the essence of the...

    For Norway, a small film country, the director Maris Horst had carefully considered the filming of this film that exposed the government's taint. He said that he did not make this film to embarrass the government, but to show it in the film. human power. He said: "There was once a poem to the effect that if you treat people like wild animals, they will become wild animals; if you treat prisoners like prisoners, they will become...

      Erling: I once saw a whale swim with three harpoons in it. It took the entire day to die. He was weak due to the harpoon I shot him with. And covered with scars from all the battles he had fought. I have become acquainted with one boy whom is soon to sign off. For the six years he has been on this ship, he has done everything right. And now, he is going home.

    • Erling: You do not belong here, either. Goodbye, manager!
