    Every character is like a puppet to be played with, and every word and deed constitutes an inescapable ritual. It doesn't matter what they do, what matters is that you are watching them. You can label it pretending without hesitation, but you have to admit that the pretending is too unique to copy; you can not understand it at all, but you can't help but enjoy it. What a strange...

    Roy Anderson, 14-year Golden Lion winner. ① Such as the title and the poem "Doves think about existence on a tree branch", an absurd comedy; ② The fixed long-lens gaze of the stage, the white-faced actors, the pale and gloomy tones, and the ubiquitous cold humor; ③ The time that is blurred and even freely passed through Lines, sparse dialogue and slow-moving characters, absurd and empty; ④Three deaths, two toy salesmen, the king who broke in, the electric shock monkey, and the roller burning...

    Actors also become props in the movie, with their white, expressionless faces just standing there as human symbols, and Anderson doesn't need actor performance to finish his...

    The tavern song is so good! Full of emotions! Touching! The tavern is full of emotions. The first two are more poignant. The collision between modern and ancient has a big brain hole, absurd but no sense of disobedience. This is the meaning of roy andersson's...

    The director hid all the sunny beauties and handsome guys in Sweden. All found were fading, dull, old, dying. The child born of a handsome dancing boy and a fat dance teacher who molested her is probably one of the few young figures. Colors are oppressive, be it architecture, interiors, or clothing. What is the director trying to say? The meaningless repetition of life, the cycle, the silence, the...

    Between humanity and opinions, [Hanzhiquejing] has achieved a rare and delicate balance. It looks like a mess of scattered sand, but it makes people feel that it is round and ironic. This is exactly what the works have in common with life itself: laughter floats above and sadness sinks below, but in the end they will all be inexplicable. Because time is so ruthless, this should be the source of all thinking. The film does everything [Boyhood] thought it...

    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.

    #2015SIFF# "Han Zhi Que Jing", the most advanced film I watched this year, there is no one. Surreal, dark humor, time travel. The sluggish movements are full of alienation and self-encapsulation, making people wonder if the vast space in northern Europe has caused this peculiar sense of...
