How to maintain innocence in the wrong era? become a criminal. How to show the invisible spiritual movement? Malick mainly transforms it into a spatial form problem composed of wide-angle, close-up, oblique composition, backlighting, and wandering shots. But it is too embarrassing for the audience to repeatedly fill with these axes for nearly three hours. An American vulgar (cookie cutter) holy (religious) narrative. with...

I've always been a little selfish about Terrence Malick's films. He is walking in the direction of "God", and he has always insisted, but it is not going smoothly, and his works in recent years have not been satisfactory. From this "Secret Life", we can see a little shadow of the earlier work "Days of Heaven". Compared with other works over the years, his unique video language is more suitable for such space and subject...

1 Three hours show the passive political resistance of a person (and a family): say a conscientious no to the regime, how to say it, how far it can be said, where is the redemption (only the leap of faith); 2 Church painter: "For many years, I have painted Jesus who reassures people, Jesus with a halo, maybe one day I will paint a real Jesus"; 3 Can the eternal mountain and the eternal four seasons bring morality in the...

I found out that I have the super power to automatically fall into a coma halfway through watching a long and beautiful movie and thus get a better movie viewing experience. I often automatically log off when others are bored, and the movie can be better when I wake up! To reiterate the afterthought of "The Tree of Life", Malick's shots of animals and gods are not people (characters). The protagonist's decision seems to be political, but in fact it is more instinctive and religious, so there is...

6/10. Malick betrayed himself. His past poetry came from the hermit's intuition: the story was diluted with only a certain mysticism, the actors chose to feel free without leaving the slightest trace of performance, never made moral judgments on the protagonist, only showing immediate thoughts and feelings, People or all things are driven by the force of nature; and [Secret Life] portrays the heroic feat of the protagonist sticking to the truth and achieving spiritual freedom with faith, or the...

[B+] Ma Daxian seems to have finally found a balance this time, combining his consistent unique images with the appropriate amount of added text, maintaining the previous fairy spirit and at the same time highlighting the ingenuity of the story itself. His most popular attempt. But at the same time, in this script with strong humanistic emotions, it is obvious that Ma Daxian is out of place. It takes 3 hours to talk about things that can be explained in 1 hour, and many scenes appear...

Imperfect, but has every combination of aesthetic and historical form I could dream of - narration and Eliot's text of the protagonist, Bruno Ganz in front of Hitler's portrait, Nazi and Christian symbolization, unsubtitled German ambience, voice in the subjective shot , the opening mass and the five-minute confrontation of "Triumph of the Will", the wide-angle lens and the idyllic Austrian landscape under the pentatonic scale, the Passion of Matthew stretches the railway tracks and creeks on...

#63rdLFF#Malick's films are destined for the big screen, and it's hard to imagine a better place to express anti-war themes than the wonderland of the Austrian valley. Even such a beautiful Garden of Eden has to be held hostage by the neighbor's malicious words and the rumbling fire from afar. The film is based on this ubiquitous dislocation (secular/moral, social/natural, violence/poetic) as a puncture point. It tells the story of a traditional rebel. The plot is still concise, but because of...

1. Some directors use movies to write stories, and Malik uses movies to write philosophical essays about the inner world and mental state of human beings; 2. His wife, children, mother, country, and life cannot shake his heart for Belief in goodness; 3.99 minutes, a 40-second paragraph, is the most direct treatment of violence to the audience's nerves; 4. "...the goodness of the world is gradually increasing, and part of it depends on unsung behaviors. .And the reason why things around you and...

Such a simple story, enough for Malik. Before the execution, he imagined his wife calling his name, maybe in heaven, this is the rope that pulls the meeting. The scene of the execution is as beautiful and cruel as the cold moonlight. The hands are tied, and they kiss each other on the cheeks with the terrified people who go to the Yellow Springs. The slight twitching of the characters' faces and the side faces of the people trying to grab the last ray of sunlight before entering the door look...
