    black absurd comedy

    Polanski's early work has a surprising imagery punch, as well as a sudden sense of humor. Aside from the castle on the desert island, the highway flooded by the evening tide left a deep impression on me. The settings and changes of the environment also affect the development of character psychology...

    Is it the woman who destroys everything?

    I watched this film on and off twice before I finished it. I think the story is a bit messy, with characters going in and out, and a group of hens running up and down. Such a chaotic and tense Polanski film is my first time. Once I saw that even though the ninth door was pretending to be a god, it...

    dead end

    "Cul-de-sac" (Cul-de-sac) was filmed in 1966, when Roman Polanski was only 33 years old, but he showed unparalleled talent in plot, scene and editing.      Geroge, a middle-aged businessman, sold his factory and came to an isolated island with his young and beautiful wife Teresa, raising chickens...

    CUL-DE-SAC: No way

    When the film crew of "Desert Island Cry" was in the final reshoot stage, a cameraman told Polanski that, judging from the existing materials, this should have been made into a bad film by the main creator. . .

    In fact, the whole film has indeed been on the verge of getting out of control during the...

    A key to start humanity

    Re-watching "Desert Island", I finally felt the humor in it, and I had to praise Polanski's talent. The limited scenes and characters create necessary dramatic conflict and tension, and at the same time, show a corner of human nature in a humorous way. The intrusion of the murderer broke the...

    Man, Woman, Robber and Desert Island

    "Dead End is my best film and I'm sure I'll love it forever. It's a real film, made for film, as we call art for art's sake." Roman Polanski in 1970 said in an interview.     "Dead End" was filmed in 1966 and was Polanski's second film after leaving Poland. At that time, he was already famous for...

    One step is careful, and a "cult" is achieved

    The title of the movie is literally translated as "Dead End", and the director seems to imply here that the only way for the hero to go is "going crazy".    Many of Polanski's early films contained such a theme - "Are other people hell?"    But the funny thing is, after watching such a seemingly...

    existence and freedom

    This movie is better understood in combination with Sartre's other being hell. The focus is not on the collapse of Taoyuan World, but on the reactions of a man and a woman after the intruder appeared. A woman is ironic, bold and intelligent. It is not that she cannot protect herself, but out of her...
