Not just the aunt of the attack, but the expression of the attack

This movie was fun to watch.

Berlin's open-air square, when I arrived, I had absolutely no idea what I was going to see.

Germany put the movie, the previous trailers and commercials will almost exhaust patience, waiting for the main film to start.

A woman came out to cut a pylon, and a three-person orchestra was playing along the way.

what is this?

No subtitles, can't understand German.

But that feeling is strange.

If I was watching it on the computer, it might be turned off, but at this time, I can't leave it, so I can only sit and continue watching.

However, at this time, the charm of the film appeared.

This is an unfamiliar land, an unfamiliar story, an unfamiliar character.

The protagonist's behavior can completely pull the viewer, and the lines are no longer the only one, it is of course important and essential. But for this movie, the lines only affect some story details, the texture of the characters themselves, the emotions in the state of the story, which is more interesting, and the director is really smart.

The actions of the characters are very aggressive:

Aunt cuts the wire;

Aunt is a choir teacher;

The aunt stole the printer, printed the flyers, and stood on the tower to distribute;

The aunt ran in the mountains, glaciers, and rivers, using the body of a dead cow to avoid infrared detection;

...

"Women in War" is not a story film, it is more like a literary novel, similar to stream of consciousness.

It's a person, a state, an emotion.

The magic touch was that orchestra and choir.

Every era has its own artistic expression.

Poetry was in the Tang Dynasty, poetry was in the Song Dynasty, and in the Yuan Dynasty, small songs were sung, lively, vivid, and wild, and later, the novel reached its peak and was brilliant.

But if you want to talk about this era, it is the movies.

As with all forms of expression, the choice of individuality or the choice of the public.

Popular cinema is an industry, it hits the itch, it knows when you cry and when to laugh, it doesn't set a threshold for appreciation, most of the work is used to lower the threshold, tear down the threshold, let everyone in, and then talk about other things, it is to earn you Money is still to earn your liking, or to put some value in your head, this is not a bad thing, the best ending is that the guest and host enjoy themselves.

Niche movies, towards absolute rebellion, tell a good story is the duty, other than that, how do I play, you don't care, cunning, entertain yourself. So there are those who like it very much, and those who don't like it very much.

This is even more a good thing. In any era, different expressions are precious.

Aunt's fighting value is irresistible. When I see her, I immediately think of a German colleague.

I met her later and talked to her.

"Hey, I saw a movie where the protagonist is a lot like you, and she cuts the wires in the whole city!"

My colleague was frightened by me: "Huh?"

I went on to explain: "She loves nature, she has power! She also adopted a child from Ukraine!"

She cheered: "I also adopted two Nepalese boys!"
