A three-hour movie might scare off a lot of people.
But I think it's a rare masterpiece.
The story takes me through the experiences of a painter from childhood to adulthood, taking me through the Nazis in 1937, World War II in 1945 and the establishment of the Berlin Wall in 1961.
On the journey of finding "I" and "Reality", the painter is constantly moving forward. Although his aunt was "euthanized" by the Nazi party, his childhood friend was bombed to death in the war, his father committed suicide under pressure, and his wife was forced to have an abortion by his former Nazi father-in-law... He always kept a pure heart in pursuit of art. "reality".
In the end, in the scene where he creates his masterpiece, it's hard to tell whether he created the art or the "real" art.
Or maybe, "reality" is a kind of art,
And God just happened to be passed on to the world through the hands of the painter...
Therefore it is called: the work of no master.
