Trivia

I watched the first part of the film on February 11, 2006 because I wrote it down. Some trivia about this film:

At the end of the film, Yardbirds performed Train Kept A-Rollin (the lyrics were modified and renamed Stroll On in the original soundtrack of the film). At that time, the team was the Beck-Page dual lead guitar combination of Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page. Then Beck smashed a copy of The In Crowd guitarist Steve Howe's instrument. The fragments of this prop in the film were snatched from the crowd by Hemmings and threw them on the street.

Steve Howe could have thrown the guitar himself, but The In Crowd (later renamed Tomorrow) played the theme song of the film, and the Velvet Underground was replaced by Yardbirds before them.

Another easy-to-find message is that the prototype of Hemmings in the film was photographer David Bailey, and the photos in the film were taken by Don McCullin.

Swinging London shot in the film: post-mod trend, Twiggy-style boy figure, girl face model, mini-cooper car on the street corner, jazz, family gathering, parade,..., and Hemmings' attitude towards female models Similar: I hate them and stick to them every day, I can send them casually but I can't really own them.

In addition, the film reminds me of Roland Barthes's arguments in the Ming room. I forgot the specific expression.

    Whether it is an Italian or an English film, Antonioni is talking about the same theme: the impossibility of human communication. To reinforce this, Antonioni even uses some symbolic characters very strongly. But students, the most important point of zooming in is to write a typical big structure story into a typical small structure. How did he do it? If you want to restore it to a large structure, how should you write it?

    5.0 Individual Top Ten Candidates Private Italy, Anthony the best. Anthony's Palme d'Or. The naked male perspective coexists with the bright female perspective. With the sign of suspense, the meaning of peeping is like the Polish director Kishen's "Love Short Film" shining into the abyss of fear. Anthony first was brisk and bright, gradually changing the narrative structure, and then exploring the relationship between classical and material. A series of "naked" photography games are both sexual hints and spherical private bodies, and the deconstructed temperament of spherical private bodies is blurred and sudden! In my postmodernist thinking mode, I ponder the subtlety of the mirror of the three people's "bare clothes and nakedness". It was originally a game, abstraction, abstraction, related to the future, and also related to the past. , corresponding to its alienation trilogy in the past! Great and magnificent! Hard to attach! Watch it, you can't sleep for a long time, your spirit is better! Worth brushing all night long! ! !
