    I may have seen the best film of the Gao An Brothers for the time being (no country for old men, I think), this barton fink is just average to...

    It's a famous blend of big plot, subplot, and antiplot, but it can also be seen as absurd, subplot suspense, like those of David Lynch. Since it is an antiplot, then the illogical and discordant metaphors are very important, and this is all about Button Finkley's brilliant chapters, but about the inner conflict of the small plot and the outer conflict of the big plot, in short, It sucks, so it's a typical anti-structure...

    balabala. crazy. No one listens, so what's the use of talking. It's hard to be a human being, and even harder to be a lunatic. They are all forced, yes, they are all self-inflicted. If you want to break your mind, it is better to hang out on the beach. balabala. I am completely confused, but there are infinite possibilities for clear...

    Regarding the ending of the film, the scene where the seabird appeared and fell directly into the water was said to be just an accident, but the director thought the mood was very good, so he kept it. This can probably be regarded as a footnote to the interpretation of this...

    There is only one way to create, and that is to create for yourself. When you're trying to write something for a group, you're stuck. You are just a traveler, you do not live here. You can only imagine. The man who lives here, he solves the pain of others, but no one solves it for him; he listens to the pain of others, and hears pus from his ears, but no one listens to his pain. As for Funk, his pursuit is to relieve the pain of his fellow man through creation. He believed that creation stemmed...

    #FIFF11#Hollywood is a black hole of talent, and Cohen chose to use genre films to complete this confrontation. But aside from the discomfort of the production machine and its castle-in-the-air merchandise, is the movie a little bit self-deprecating about the so-called nostalgic creators who label themselves independent and...

    9.4; Haneke, your white ribbon is not as good as a mosquito in Cohen's mirror 18 years...

    The common problem of this type of film, a real and exquisite text, but always ignores a problem, what can really become a "dilemma" is not to drive away the mosquitoes that are sucking blood on the legs, but a never-ending...

    Very Cohen, very pissing~~~ I am more upset that this movie has not been deconstructed clearly, and the next movie is...

    I thought it was a meta-movie about film writing, but it turned out to be psychoanalysis, just like "Mulholland Drive" mixed with "The Shining". Creating, happy and painful, let me show you my inner world, the soul is constantly wrestling and tearing, and both sensibility and reason are burned in the torment, but even so painful, writing is my only way of struggle. 2021 Beijing Film...

    Audrey Taylor: That's chicken fat, Bill.
