    I feel that Yang Dechang's movies always show daily life in a restrained manner and record life. I touched it after reading it, but I didn't find another possibility in life. 06.12.24 Christmas Eve Watching

The long-range fixed-length shots are the main focus, the composition is excellent, the soundtrack is simplified, and amateurs are used Actor, the ultimate realism; 3. The use of mirrors and glass reflections in many places is exquisite; 4. The trivial details of life, the golden sentences are constant, complex but not complicated, and meaningful. (9.5/10)

Yi Yi: A One and a Two... quotes

  • Yang-Yang: I'm sorry, Grandma. It wasn't that I didn't want to talk to you. I think all the stuff I could tell you... You must already know. Otherwise, you wouldn't always tell me to 'Listen!' They all say you've gone away. But you didn't tell me where you went. I guess it's someplace you think I should know. But, Grandma, I know so little. Do you know what I want to do when I grow up? I want to tell people things they don't know. Show them stuff they haven't seen. It'll be so much fun. Perhaps one day... I'll find out where you've gone. If I do, can I tell everyone, and bring them to visit you? Grandma, I miss you. Especially when I see my newborn cousin who still doesn't have a name. He reminds me that you always said you felt old. I want to tell him that I feel I am old, too.

  • Yang-Yang: Daddy, you can't see what I see and I can't see what you see. So how can I know what you see?

    N.J.: Good question. I never thought of that. That's why we need a camera. Do you want one to play with?

    Yang-Yang: Daddy, can we only know half of the truth?

    N.J.: What? I don't get it

    Yang-Yang: I can only see what's in front, not what's behind. So I can only know half of the truth, right?
