It's because of the long-windedness that it became a movie review

What a magical viewing experience, I know it is a sad story, I saw loss, regret, regret, fear, sadness, loneliness, depression (the word is not accurate enough), loneliness, powerlessness, but also poetic, beautiful, youthful, Hopeful, beloved, and authentic. The way the whole film is presented is very smooth (I don’t know if it’s because of the long takes and the looping venue), I feel that Virgo will like it very much, and the memories about Anna are like a special episode of a drama, and the part about the bus is like being in an amusement park Watching a 4D movie is not like a movie anyway. Many first-person perspectives have a strong sense of connection, and the narrative is bland but not boring. The feeling of blandness is more because of the relationship that the emotional expression is not intense. The only emotional expression in the few scenes is that the first scene directly expresses regret for Anna, the death of Serin, the invitation to accompany when parting, the bus scene is childlike and innocent of joy. What I like most is his way of expressing the war. There is no scene of the war itself, but people can see what the war brings us. It is ridiculous to mix all the elements into a cocktail at the end; the least favorite is the regret for Anna, I feel What is suffocating is that Anna has been begging for his wholeheartedness, even for one day, he didn't hear her needs while she was alive, she died (actually the movie didn't explain how Anna died, but it feels like she committed suicide due to postpartum depression) , the way he misses her is still only himself, I can't even tell whether he is sarcastic or serious, which makes me regret (I think it may be intentional to write here? I experienced the same emotions as him). So maybe I'm superficial. I also like this story very much. His thoughts, shooting techniques, pictures and music are all beautiful, but I also have the feeling of being too male. It's not necessarily accurate, but it's still uncomfortable. It may also be a story that is too "me" and has nothing to do with gender.

Then it was even more interesting that after watching the movie, I fell asleep during the ending song. After a two-hour break, I had a beautiful spring dream. The nostalgia of memories, and the expectations of the future are the same wild laissez-faire about "me" as the movie. Probably this is the difference between me and the director. He can show his dreams to many people, but I can only show them to myself. .

Life is sweet.

    I ask you, how long will it last tomorrow? You answer me, one more day than ever. Life is like a reverse journey. The boy speaks the language of maturity, and the old man has the hesitation before growing up. The poet who bought the vocabulary, the unfinished long poem "The Trapped Freeman". Empty carriage. Wild strawberries. An Zhe's style is like Jiang Kui's words, wild clouds fly alone, and there is no trace left. Although the rhyme is high, it is like looking at flowers in the fog, and it is finally separated by a layer.

    The time to chase the verse is non-linear, and a day turns into eternity. Angelopoulos' movies are really poetic.

  • Alexandre: Why, mother, nothing happens as we wish? Why? Why does one have to rot in silence torn between pain and desire? Why did I live my life in exile. Tell me mother, why can't one learn to love?
