    I feel that this story is very good. When I first read the introduction, it resonated very much. It is simply another interpretation of the story of another foreign character and the background of the times that I have personally experienced. But, what should I say, it really didn't shoot well. There is something deeper and deeper to...

    The details are in place, not to mention the two looking at each other at the end, but only to analyze Rembrandt's paintings and the collection and delivery of objects, and the theme, emotion and background have been laid out clearly. This melodious and unwavering tone first tells the audience why they want to flee; then as the rhythm picks up, the conflict unfolds, which explains why they don't flee. Furthermore, the vintage tone of the film is very well done, and the Rembrandt section is also...

    Four and a half stars. "Stay at the two looking at each other." She and he also chose the most difficult path to take, with undercurrents of restrained emotions. Petzold always makes dramatic plot stories so obscure and poetic, and love in times of political turmoil is always heartbreaking. This suppression of perception and information transmission to the end will instead release double the dramatic effect, and as a film language, it is also a delayed transmission expression. Whether it is the...

    Petzold's films often have two or three layers of text superimposed. You can look at the most superficial and simple stories, or you can ponder and delve into them, or you can lay out concise and clear foreshadowing. There are no traces and clues emerge. Cold and restrained, doing a good job of discussing people, cold, but also with a little human concern, the warmth, the bland and the romantic, can't help but say they are in the same room.//Perhaps the historical background of Germany has...

    Petzold's cinematic language is highly precise, but at the same time intuitively aware of scene and space, and will never (like many "scheduler" films) become a barrier between the audience and the film's time and space. Therefore, what is finally presented is not a "narrative" based on the segmentation and assembly (mirror) of the movement based on external forces, but the situation rapidly generated in the intuitive construction in turn constitutes a higher-dimensional movement. Rhythm,...

    If Barbara’s stay is regarded as the love of children, it is narrow; relatively speaking, Stella, who is caught between prison and death, needs to escape from this cold country, so Barbara’s final abandonment and fulfillment are there Some profound inner qualities; in other words, the theme of the film is still the historical scars and memories of the Cold War, reflecting the predicament of human nature under high pressure through the choice of a woman, in that sea, someone is forever...
