The texture of a great painter [from Li Zongheng's film review]

Darby 2022-03-16 09:01:08

The film quality of Julian Schnabel, the great painter, is really very good. The audio-visual quality, the quality of the times, and the quality of the characters are really full of specific temperature and touch. Javier Bardem's acting skills are unique and solid - the actor trusts and even believes in the director wholeheartedly, and the chemistry produced is moving. A long and moving masterpiece, the original music turned out to be Carter Powell, and the experimentalist Laurie Anderson participated. The movie is a lady, don't give her shivers, it is necessary.

    Before being a biopic, it's a base film first of all... The genre films where the Communist Party political persecution artist from the US stand and finally flees to the US is always boring to watch... Also, Johnny deep a dead ladyboy...
