the meaning of the landscape

Colt 2022-04-08 08:01:01

This is a story about finding a home with an abandoned girl.

But as a road movie, the film's focus seems to be on the landscape that the characters experience.

Do we forget who we are when we live in the roads, streets, and skyscrapers that have been infinitely replicated by modern capitalism? Everything we see is always engraved in a mold, and it becomes irrelevant to me, no longer important, does it mean that it does not exist, it has become another copy in the infinitely copied landscape Taste?

Alice was lost by her mother, but her memory has her grandmother's house. She doesn't know where it is, she only knows when she sees it.

At this time, all the landscapes of the world suddenly have meaning. Because there is a house that is my own home.

    Hehe, a movie that entertained me, but I was lost. I didn't know what to pursue, and I vaguely guessed what the movie wanted to express. Wenders' photography is amazing, it's a dazzle. The photo shoot reminded me of Buffalo 66, it was like a couple.

    Four and a half stars. The most boring movie in the film industry is in Europe, and the most boring movie in Europe is in Germany. The best boring movie in Germany is undoubtedly the German Four Heroes. Among the Four Heroes, the most boring movie is Wenders. Okay, for me, it's no problem to get this film done~~ Little Loli is very cute, she is cute in neutral dress, and she is also cute when she is naked...

Alice in the Cities quotes

  • Philip 'Phil' Winter: Taking pictures is a way of proving things. Waiting for the image to develop, I was often filled with a strange unease. I could hardly wait to compare the picture with reality. But comparing them wouldn't reassure me either. As the still images were always overtaken by reality...

    Angela - Friend in New York: You can't stay here.

    Philip 'Phil' Winter: I photographed even more obsessively.

    Angela - Friend in New York: You're really beside yourself!

    Philip 'Phil' Winter: That's why I only took Polaroids...

    Angela - Friend in New York: I don't want you to stay here, understand?

    Philip 'Phil' Winter: What? Are you serious?
