The awakening of folk consciousness

At the International Film Festival last year, I revisited the black and white film version of the classic in cinemas, and finally understood: It seems that the middle class is muttering in the neurotic dream of the stream of consciousness, but in fact, the writer and director of the new novel on the left bank are conspiring to subvert the French feudal autocratic imprisonment and brainwashing ideology. X represents the sober left bank writer and director himself, a is the brainwashed representative of the French people, and the husband of a is the incarnation of Charles de Gaulle, the autocratic ruler of the palace. The calm and persistent X calls desperately for a sleeping France that used to be a tradition of free and romantic consciousness. However, a was instilled into an idiot by his husband for many years, and finally he couldn't escape from his clutches and was shot to death. However, the protagonist repeatedly fought against a's husband but failed. A middle-class feudal palace with hypocritical and dull puppet faces. The editor-in-chief of the film manual said before the screening that France was the most oppressive era at that time, so the meaning of the new wave to France is the awakening of folk consciousness and spontaneous innovation.

    It also belongs to the most pioneering echelon in the group portrait of the new wave works. After reading it, I feel that "Hiroshima Love" is really easy to understand by comparison. Stream-of-consciousness movies, with non-stop narration, cut space and time in an absolutely unconventional way, expressing the alienation of modern people's minds. Whether it is the solidification of the performance, or the extremely fast flashback or repetition of the camera lens, the lingering entanglement of that affection is vividly expressed. In the world of ideas, time is not only non-linear, but also viscous and broken, compressible and stretchable. What impressed me the most was the game theory game in the film, and I will play it with my friends at the next party. #BJIFF9#

    Go farther than love in Hiroshima. The ultimate in sleep movies is sleepwalking

Last Year at Marienbad quotes

  • X: I must have you alive. Alive, as you have already been every evening, for weeks, for months.

    A: I have never stayed so long anywhere.

    X: Yes, I know. I don't care. For days and days. Why don't you still want to remember anything?

    A: You're raving! I'm tired, leave me alone!

  • X: [Last Lines] The grounds of the hotel were symmetrically arranged, without trees or flowers, or plants of any kind. The gravel, the stone, and the marble were spread in strict array in unmysterious shapes. At first sight, it seemed impossible to lose your way. At first sight... Along these stone paths and amidst these statues, where you were already losing your way forever in the still night, alone with me.
