    Although this is the directorial debut made by Karax at the age of 23, the technique is very skilled, the contrast between black and white is strong, the use of light and shadow is also very decent, and there are shadows of Godard in video editing and other...

    It's too good-looking, I can't see any escaping methodology, the whole is exquisite and lovely, just like the atmosphere in "Night", and there are countless private and surprising details, it is worth mentioning two people to an hour It's the first time we met, but it seems that I have known ten movies for so long. Denis Lawan's eyes seem to be glued to the heroine all the...

    Leo Karax's debut novel, although it is black and white, is dreamy and charming. Like "Cleo at 5 to 7", the director sets a certain time limit for the characters at the beginning, and the countdown is slowly approaching, which can make it easier for the audience who also know that this time limit is coming. All the actions and emotions that the characters of the film are caught in. And precisely because of this (short) time limit, the choices of characters and the end result of events are more...

    91/100, in the seemingly arbitrary editing and sound and picture design, a great modern French film spirit is sacredly inherited. Boys and girls are characters and broad signifiers, and encounters are both actions and plots, so the movie was born, and death has always been about the most perfect end of the...

    What I am most interested in is the sound processing. The music outside the car is bigger than the inside of the car, the microphone is bigger than this, and the inner monologue is bigger than the dialogue, all of which show that the director is looking for something else compared to a clear narrative. The nostalgia for silent films points to the ineffectiveness and even hypocrisy of communication, as does love. That face of Denis Lawan really suits Clarks. The first work is still a bit rough,...

    With the old voice-over, travel through the tunnel of time to the wet Paris. After his lovelorn, Alex pulled away from the city of Paris and became an outsider of the internal system of Paris, listening to the voice of his lover (city) from a distance like an angel. The music of David Bowie in the headphones gave Alex a chance to get in touch with the city, the still city flowing, and the men and women kissing under the night sky like a merry-go-round. Stepping into the party, the scene becomes...

    Very typical Leo Carax style, but not as rampant as his later works, the film is very slow, the narrative is very fragmented, very life-like, and the new wave things are still a bit difficult to digest, but This can also be seen as Leo Karax's own view of love. It is said that the photography and pictures of this film are still very beautiful. Although I didn't understand it very much, I was still infected by the bitter...

    B / The style of the new wave of the debut novel is very strong, and the images are highly recognizable, like the prototype of "Bad Blood", but I haven't been able to find a more personal style, but the mother who has written several later works of Karax The problem is that a boy falls in love with a girl, romantic madness and even...
