There is the shell of the future and the soul of the ancient

I didn't have a chance to witness 120 frames of realism, but I am grateful that Ang Lee, as the first person to eat crabs, did not flaunt the sweetness of crabs, but savoured the corners carefully and watched the time.

Speaking of feelings, Li Anpei.

Ang Lee's style is written in genes, and things collide, and it continues from "Pushing Hand"; he is not greedy for grandeur, never writes about big rivers and rivers, but only writes specific and dense thoughts; scrutinizing fate, there is always cause and effect on people's circumstances The verdict of reincarnation; it has always been rooted in the story, even if it is the amazingness of "Youth Pie" and the advancement of "Billy Lynn", it will not blur the principle that the story is the core.

Speaking of style, Li Anya.

This film still presents a personal perspective, regardless of right or wrong, whether it is good or bad, like an auxiliary tool to push Billy Lynn to accept the ending of being a soldier. Billy Lynn spins in pain, depression, and self-doubt, while struggling with negative emotions and understands that his real life is nothing but a script. What is reality on the assembly line? What is the universal emotional element under the world caliber? What is a standardized answer? No need to answer, whatever, I belong there anyway, I just want to go anyway.

He is tired of being a hero, disdain to use the worst memories as capital to sell values, and is also tired of being a chess piece, born to death, not knowing the ratio of right and wrong relative to swords and guns, he is tired of being a symbol, showing himself like a clown, and also tired of doing A tragedy, pitiful, analyzed, and pretended to empathize with him, but he couldn't get tired of facing his own fears and desires. All the splits in his heart, without attributes, swayed back and forth like a light in the dark night, stumbling to the front. road.

No matter how difficult it is, it is the gift of fate.

Speaking of intentions, Li An is senior.

Thank you, Ang Lee, for the good characters, good stories, and the meeting point of technology and humanities. It should be like this, with the shell of the future and the soul of the ancient times.

    In the brief silence between the film's transition, the audience can be heard whispering sobbing. Extremely fascinated by the little details hidden in the movie (similar to the little embarrassment that the soldier himself has to sign after the football is sent out). The best scene is talking about that close-quarters fight: telling the reporter that everything is forgotten, to the girl feeling something bigger than life, the mushroom's soul going through. Finally, in the face of 120 frames of footage, the audience was close-up of the Iraqis he killed.

    A movie that is still very Ang Lee, not a war movie, not an anti-war movie, just simply want to talk about the feelings of 19-year-old Billy, delicate and sincere. I think I understand why Ang Lee uses 120 frames. In order to truly restore how soldiers who have experienced war see the world, this is very Ang Lee. I really want to see 120 frames!
