"The Quietness of the Cold Branches", as the final chapter of Roy Anderson's "Life Trilogy", comes with a downright Nordic stern temperament, and it is by no means blunt. The two men and women in the opening scene with white-faced makeup like Japanese Noh actors set the surreal tone of the whole...

I read an incomprehensible novel before, which was "The Lover" by French novelist Duras. It is difficult to understand because it breaks the narrative structure and sequence of traditional novels, the content is chaotic in time, and the consciousness keeps jumping. Later I learned that this was a...

When buying the ticket, the saleswoman at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre asked me if it was the movie "Ga Ji" (Dove in Cantonese)? I was stunned for a long time, and suddenly remembered that the other name of "Han Zhi Que Jing" is not "a pigeon reflecting on the meaning of existence in a tree", so I...

A recent news article said that an old man tore the hundreds of thousands of house sales money into pieces, and his son and daughter-in-law spent a few months fighting back the 100,000 yuan. Of course, the movie "Han Zhi Que Jing" has nothing to do with this, it was me who pulled them together...

ok, let's see.

First of all, thanks for the inspiration from NYT. Not much of a review, expcet for the detailed analysis of the theatrical elements involved. However, the piece did ask some very thought-provoking questions that are worth pondering.

Roy Anderson has established a more extreme personal style through these three films, not only in the language of the film, but also in the content of the film. The drama is dissolved, the narrative disappears, and there are only fragments that keep repeating the cruelty and sadness of life ("You...

I had seen "Second Floor" at a film festival before, and vaguely remembered the funny scene of the fat man grabbing another person's leg and being dragged away. It's also a movie I watch for inspiration. The meaning and philosophical thinking of this film is so profound that it is difficult to...

After leaving school for more than ten years, I have forgotten all the pretentious words.

I don't understand a single place where this movie is pretentious.
