This is before I haven't read the other reviews.
I know very little about them, just emotionally.
The details of life are very important in their films, but in this film, history is less important than life. I won't comment on the war, but that's not a good thing for ordinary people on either side. But just like Dad's always smiling face, that's how they go on with their lives.
So life itself is everything.
Their attitude towards life is probably a craftsman's attitude, rigorously hiding their aspirations in plain tenderness.
Hou Hsiao-hsien has the attitude of a scholar, broad but heavy.

    Under the social paradigm at that time, it must be "marrying a daughter", because only a daughter will be "separated" by "marrying out". Using the sword of the current dynasty to slash the former officials will bring about a deformed view of "praising and strengthening the patriarchy", thereby denying the "normal" at that time. The second-hand subtitles in the archives have almost become performance art, vividly showing how the connotation of the language is damaged step by step during the translation process. I remembered that the word "both civil and military" was used in "Assassination" before. There is no ready-made equivalent in English, so it was translated into long sentences to explain, and the second-hand subtitles were translated from English to "both knowledge and what". Mischievous words.

    【YVR-que】24-hour movie marathon 14 (finishing). Every time I watch it, the level of understanding and liking is different. It is estimated that it is the third time I have watched it on the big screen, but there is an element of disgust. I understand the truth, the camera, the performance, the story, etc., but the five-star view from ten years ago when I was a child feels that now, education and experience have influenced a lot. Looking at it now, no matter how we understand it, no matter how it is the analysis of the society (at that time), no matter how love and affection weave our lives, but such values ​​are outdated, right? The status of Japanese women has not improved in half a century, or even worsened to a certain extent. Does this type of film really have no negative effects? I didn't like my aunt's face from the first time. After watching it a few times, now it's sad for her and everyone. The saddest thing is that kind of obedience, and this kind of obedience is even more regrettable under such perfect camera language. sad. And this sad result is wrapped in the front of the film. (If you watch the first movie in 24 hours instead of the last movie next time, or you don't take the course of Japanese women's history, it is estimated that you will still give it full marks.) Learn techniques and be alert to values
