industrialized italy

This Italian film in the 1960s should represent the current situation in Italy at that time. One is the pollution caused by industrial development, and the other is the chaos of family and marriage psychology of men and women. The industrial pollution state photographed is very real, which reminds me of the scene of the mining and chemical factory in my hometown. The red, green, blue, gray, and white colors are well shot in the film. The heroine is very nervous and has a sense of feminism; the relationship between men and women is chaotic and ambiguous, and the films made by the new director are indeed more detached. Let me understand 53 years ago in Italy, after the development of industrialization, the land and people were deeply chaotic and confused. I feel that this is what our country is going through right now.

    The confusion, confusion and fear caused by many unknowns arising from industry and modernization have been thought and explored in the period of my parents. So far, we have clarified a lot of confusion, but there are more problems that emerge in an endless stream that are even more confusing. Perhaps human beings have always lived like this, preaching preaching and being puzzled by karma one after another, and have never stopped searching up and down. The picture is too beautiful and extremely comfortable, especially the story of the girl on the island, the blue water, the pink beach, the beautiful girl with bronze skin, the reef that has been washed away like a body, and the singing from the reef. The joy of a man and a woman in a red wooden house, the striking and small mother and son under the giant gray chimney of the factory.

    Antonioni's bewilderment, loneliness, and unease, from the neurotic facial expressions and body language of the beautiful and sad Monica Vitti, to the desolate and foggy industrialized background, to the eerie and noisy noises that spread out like a chaotic watercolor painting, I slowly complained with a rich and colorful palette... and finally became a cold, liquid nitrogen-like wall formed by emotions.

Red Desert quotes

  • Max: You two would be interested in our conversation. Didn't you tell me about that ointment...

    Orlando: What ointment?

    Max: The one some Africans use... to last longer. What was it again?

    Orlando: Oh, that. It's nothing. Just some crocodile fat and pungent herbs that they smear on before they...

    Mili: Smear on what?

    Linda: Mili, don't play dumb.

    Orlando: It works for hours.

    Max: Hear that, Mili? It works for hours.

    Mili: I don't believe it.

    Corrado Zeller: It's true, it's true. You have no idea what men in other countries do. For example, in Jordan I saw men eat mutton fat and honey for breakfast.

    Max: What about the Chinese? They eat ground rhinoceros horn.

    Ugo: Dried shark fin is an energy booster too.

    Max: I confess that I've tried royal jelly and it works. Right, LInda?

    Giuliana: What's that?

    Ugo: Honey from the queen bee.

    Max: It's rejuvenating. Remember that in your old age, miss.

    Corrado Zeller: Assuming she still wants to make love then.

    Max: What do you say to that?

    Iole: I'd rather do certain things than talk about them.

  • Mili: I hate him.

    Linda: Who?

    Mili: Your husband. He's like a vulture, always ready to swoop down on a factory in bankruptcy or a woman in distress. You'll see. He'll end up getting his way with me too.
