Isn't the short review too long?

At the beginning, I thought of Woody Allen's Hollywood ending, and found that the old man still learned a lot from Truffaut in filmmaking. I have always been a little afraid of this kind of film that can see the filming process, probably because it broke the boundary between film and reality, and it seems a lot more real and cold. Very funny, especially the opening. My favorite place is the director's three dreams, and finally the child walked to the iron gate with a cane and took all the photos of Citizen Kane. Movies are not like life, there is no silence. But I choose to live. I can give up men for movies but I won't give up movies for men. How much Truffaut loves movies to get us all caught up in this emotion. Movies are as good as life, because both are places with Truffaut.

    3+++ Chu Fu wrote, directed, and acted, and the filmmaker's "American Efficiency" worked hard and had fun. He is good at dealing with the drama within the play and the triangle relationship. This time, he also seriously discussed the boundaries between the inside and outside of the movie, and also briefly and vividly discussed the relationship between the sexes. My favorite is a few set pieces with strings, and the ubiquitous tribute eggs. The tail board used aerial photography, and it was also easy to come by. Chu Fu's open-mindedness about love and life is really cute.

    Great! After "The Lover Under the Olive Tree", I have seen my favorite movie about making movies. From the low-key start, the change of roles to the final completion, as well as various accidents during the period, Truffaut, who loves movies, made it for the audience who loves movies. Some of the dreams are very interesting. And some of the ironies in the film are also very interesting: the movie is not as profitable as real estate, Miss Numbers, and the chaotic love life of the French...Is the cat scene improvised, fun!

Day for Night quotes

  • Alphonse: You see, I've made a terrible discovery. You can be desperately in love with someone you despise, whose every gesture, word and thought you detest!

    Julie: What right have you to say that? Say you made a mistake but never be ashamed of having loved. By despising Liliane, you're merely degrading yourself.

    Alphonse: Maybe you're right. Anyway, my love affairs have always ended badly. I thought women were magic.

    Julie: Of course they're not magic. Or men are too. Everyone's magic, and no one is.

  • Madame Lajoie: What is this - filmmaking? You call that a business? You've no morals. Everybody sleeps with everyone! What is it but a dirty lie. You call that normal? Filthy cinema - you're a plague on the world! You smell of filth! You'll pay for your sins! I despise you!
