Burning, looking forward, like a sacrifice, a suffering. [From Li Zongheng's film review]
A friend once asked me why I couldn't understand some movies. I said, "understand" can be divided into many kinds. Many movies are not based on conventional narratives. This is like literature. A poem will be in the form of a narrative essay or manual to write? But you can still understand what the poem is about. I got this experience from Tarkovsky's film and book "Sculpting Time". Laota's last movie, the imagery and music are still wonderful, but it is indeed old and exhausted. The process of...

A memorable viewing experience
After watching Rohmer's films very hard again and still unable to feel the subtleties, I almost gave up my attempt to appreciate art films. I found myself too analytically inclined, and analysis destroys the subtleties. What a good director tries to communicate is his personal feeling. First of all, he must be able to truly experience some subtle or sublime or beautiful feeling, and then he must have enough talent to show it. As an audience, you need to feel holistically, not analytically....

It doesn't feel right to watch it again
Continue to water dead trees for three years
Repeat the same behavior at the same time every day
continuous and regular like a ritual
Maybe the world will change
One should neither expect nor wait
the dwarf who made Zarathustra faint
dying in hope and despair
That is to think of yourself as the creator
All things have language
You are silent like a fish
Man always fights against others...

The movie is still good. It's just that the viewability is really not high. After watching the whole film, people are exhausted to death. When I saw the middle, I kept questioning myself whether I knew what these people were talking about and what the director wanted to say. It's really tiring, from the storyline to the narrative technique, it's overwhelming and almost collapses. After reading it, I personally think that it is still very good from the theme, but the content is too dignified....

What to save you Andrei Tarkovsky. The staged performance, the language of the camera is obviously asking for something. The beginning is great, in the reflection of life, there is also the question of modern civilization. In the end, it was a maze of endless sorrow, entanglement, and no exit. I especially wanted to say: how to watch Tarkovsky's movies, it would be better to have subtitles synchronously analyzed. In the end it was hope and love, which Ta said was dedicated to his...

The film was shot on the island of Faroe, where Bergman lives. Nykvist's photography is picturesque. There are many shocking moments, such as Alex leaning over the model of the villa like a god, or in the boy's room, the wind blows the curtains, and the light gradually brightens and dims. That last robe with tai chi printed on it is kind of...

A film that changed my mind about Tarkovsky. I saw Bergman's shadow, but the difference is that Laota uses the lens to give objects/materials a very unique appearance and meaning, light and heavy, soft and hard, light and dark. And, in the interrogation of life and death, I saw lust. So I finally fell in love with the old tower, which I thought I could not see for ten thousand...

OMG... I was very moved to think that this was the last film Laota made when he knew that he was going to die, as if every scene and every object in it had an extra meaning; and he was still a guest in Sweden. In the interior scene, Bergman's feeling is ready to come out, and the slow and elegant movement of the characters is Bresson's mark: the last old tower still remembers the idol in his heart. Although I was still confused for a while, I was very...

Gossen: In the beginning was the Word. Why is that, Papa?
Alexander: I studied philosophy, history of religion, aesthetics. And ended up putting myself in chains. Of my own free will.
Alexander: Which of you have done this?
