      Although it is repeating, it is still very good

      Although it is repeated, it is not very different from the previous works, but it is still a very good movie.
      Of course, this also reflects the continuity of thinking that the director who writes his own script will have.
      (There are only a handful of directors like this in China: Jia Zhangke, Hou Xiaoxian, Yang Dechang, etc. They are a level higher than Li An, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige and others.)
      How to have continuity, but also have breakthroughs and changes, are masters We all...

      Joy of life ZAVET

      Kusturica, a Yugoslavian director, is good at comedy. He has a deep understanding of life and country after his unconstrained arrangements and humor. I always think that it is more difficult to tell a comedy story than tragedy, especially the joy of life.

      In Belgrade, a remote mountain village, 12-year-old Te Sangna (Wroth · Milovanovic ornaments) and grandfather (Yali Alex Sander Beiqi Ke ornaments) live together, at home there is a
      Tou named Chevitka's cow, the neighbor and the...

      "Zavet" Gunfire Black Fairy

      If I were to choose my ten favorite film directors, then Uncle Kusturica would definitely be in the top five. This gypsy with always messy hair and a look like a labor prisoner has always had a special place in the hearts of Chinese literary and artistic youths: he was born in the former socialist country Yugoslavia; he used the films "Dad on a Business Trip" and "Underground" that blatantly satirized the Tito regime. ", won the Palme d’Or 2 times; criticized and exiled by his compatriots; once...

      Folktales and Festival Atmosphere
      ——About Kusturica’s "Give Me a Promise"
      / Su Qiqi

      "Give Me a Promise" is a work of Emil Kusturica in 2007, compared to the kind of "Underground" In the dark night carnival under the heavy yoke of history and politics, Kusturica’s recent works seem to have intentionally made history and politics a little marginal (but he still has to add a little bit of taint and satire on politics) This is an important element in maintaining the...

      It’s not the best, and it’s better than normal



      The question is a bit confusing. But this sentence is also given to Jiang Wen's "The Sun Also Rises".
        
      Have you ever seen any of Kusturica’s films? Thinking about it, it seems that there is only one musical "Balkan Punk" that I haven't seen. What do we remember about Kusturica's movies? The real story I can only say is that "Dad on a Business Trip" is relatively complete, starting from "Arizona Dream", "Underground", "Black Cat and White Cat", "Life is a Miracle" all the...

      What life is, life is that the person you love also happens to love you, life is that he hangs upside down at the window and says to you, "Marry me." But you know his sincerity. Romantics never go forward, as long as they live in the present, whether tomorrow is a funeral or a wedding, there is nothing to...

      Three and a half. Complete the last old library drama. Old Ku's movies are like nothing new under the sun, similar to Dolly Bell's love, similar to the happy end of a black cat and a white cat, similar to the country where life is a miracle, similar to the song of the homeless boy entering the city, similar to Arizona The dream of Martin Sicoseth is similar to the playfulness, metaphors, homeland, gangsters, gunfire, and music of all his past...

    One day, the old man called his grandson to the front and told him that he was about to die, and hoped that he could fulfill his three last wishes: cross three mountains...

    Clear political views

    Although this is a comedy, this talented director with uninhibited and poetic artistic heritage has still not forgotten to include distinct political views and establish his own distinct artistic concept in this world. The audience can also deeply feel in this film that there is no war now not because of hatred, but because of the so-called love and kindness. This is a tactic of war, like the poor man in Underground (1995) asking "What...

    How are actors made

    The protagonist Uros Milovanović was born in Belgrade in 1992. The young actor was originally selected by Emil Kusturica to star in the short film "Blue Gypsy" for the following reasons: He is a gypsy with blue eyes. Kusturica liked the natural acting style of Uros very much, so he didn't hesitate to give him the leading role of "Zavet". As for the heroine Maria Petonejevic, she was born in Serbia in 1988. The crew of "Zavet" took a...

    Evaluation action

    Slavic singing and humor are the labels of Kusturica's films, as well as domestic animals such as kittens, puppies, and cows, which are also condiments that can be found in many of Kusturica's works. Although there have been many scenes of fighting and fighting, and ridicule of the national government, the police and various social realities everywhere, Kusturica chose to take the lighter, the small and ridiculous. The farce caused by...
