1. The street lights and street scenes before and after the film echo before and after, and they are beautiful. 2. The second half of the film is almost a TV show of three people. In close-up and close-up long shots, the images of the three people stand up. One is trying to guide the host trying to control the progress of the show, and one is narrating what he did on the eve of the revolution. An alcoholic professor who was attacked for lying, an old man who occasionally gags and folds papers, seems to be watching a show, and the constant incoming phone calls push the film to twists and turns, and the Rashomon phenomenon of different opinions in politics appears. Now, the last few punchlines point to the topic, today's snowflakes are tomorrow's mud. 3. The multi-perspective and Romanian names in the first half of the film once gave me a confused feeling, but a few clips depicting family life still made me smile. For example, when the host was looking for a book, he asked where the dictionary was. The wife was busy with other things, and when he heard that he was on other books, he had to ask where the other books were. I remember when I asked my mother where things were, she would tell me "there". 4. I don't understand why you sometimes need to zoom in the studio in the second half of the movie. Is it to show that the photographer of the TV station is a novice? 5. Regarding history, my feeling is that history has always been ambiguous and complicated, because after all, it is the past. Even if someone records it, it is difficult to guarantee absolute objectivity, and it is impossible to guarantee absolute details. But this is not the case. Get in the way of exploring and discussing history. And I think the current views and views on history actually reflect the present to a certain extent. In addition, everyone has different information, plus their own personality characteristics, they will naturally form arrogance and prejudice, and have different views on history and even current affairs. We avoid noise and commotion, and seek common ground while reserving differences!
