    A stunning big screen experience. With a lengthy lens language and soundtrack, with a large number of poetic monologue lines, Malik tells the "alone" resistance of a Christian character in his own way. I don't want to find any coordinates in film history to locate this movie because I want it to be...

    Terrence Malick used three hours to tell a true story that can be highly summarized in one sentence: In Austria at the end of World War II, are you willing to sacrifice your life for resisting Nazi gestures? The film progresses slowly in the narration of the couple's letters, and the simple sentences are released wantonly and delicately in the beautiful photography. The performances of the two leading actors, Auguste Diehl and Valerie Pachner, have also achieved each other with the...

    Probably a story that fits Malik's aesthetic better than The Tree of Life, and more importantly, the process of making the film - making the Hidden Things visible (before the world), as a contemporary sermon And missionary behavior, the film is even a gospel in that sense. However, this film is highly demanded, and Malik's images, which lack sufficient narrative support, have always been easily reduced to a natural "landscape" that lacks inner...

    Regarding the struggle of conscience and the perseverance of faith, Malick uses the most personal emotions to confront the most grand historical background. The pinnacle of sound design largely makes up for some of the photographic flaws (by Malik's past standards) caused by the loss of the Chivo. James Newton Howard's score is nothing short of the classical music that appears in the film. During the viewing process, I kept thinking of the Liu couple, I hope their "hidden life" can be revealed...

    Any type of script has a sense of emptiness and depth in Terrence's shots and narratives, which is the extension and spread of his personal philosophy. Of course, there will be many people who don't feel it or don't like it, because the experience and depth cannot reach and resonate. But there is no need to be ashamed. Originally, many works need time to be tasted repeatedly. In addition, the film is objectively about the choice between mediocrity and evil. It happened that I saw Jia Zhangke...

    4thIFFAM# took nearly three hours to give me a baptism of nearly three hours. Use excellent scheduling to polish the text, long shots, follow-up shots, subjective shots, feel the interlaced light and shadow in the pushing and pulling of the shots, the vast grassland, promise The big mountain and the beauty of the farm spread through the lingering of the body and the conversation of language. After three hours, I told a love story of separation, longing and farewell. Although it was not so...

    There are too many stories, the plot is too real, and the characters are too rigid, causing the picture and sound to completely lose room for echoes. Malik's worst performance...

A Hidden Life quotes

  • Ohlendorf - The Painter: What we do, is just create... sympathy. We create-- We create admirers. We don't create followers. Christ's life is a demand. You don't want to be reminded of it. So we don't have to see what happens to the truth. A darker time is coming... when men will be more clever. They won't fight the truth, they'll just ignore it. I paint their comfortable Christ, with a halo over his head. How can I show what I haven't lived? Someday I might have the courage to venture, not yet. Someday I'll... I'll paint the true Christ.

  • Fr. Fürthauer: Does a man have the right to let himself be put to death for the truth? Could it possibly please God? He wants us to have peace, happiness. Not to bring suffering on ourselves.
