I envy him. Still the unfortunate mortal who can see and even clearly distinguish the skylight replacement Never had a gallop can only draw from a strange child like a black hole that fills up more and more black Passion is his only existence squeeze Once dropped, there will be no more, just normal, just a ghost, inhuman hypocritical instruction from parents, not love, so his love can only flow to abstract flesh worship without proper...

Adapted from the classic stage play of the same name, the film won the 1978 Golden Globe Award for Best Actor, two Best Supporting Actor Awards and three Oscar nominations for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Altered Screenplay. Starring Richard Burton, the film has a strong religious flavor. Burton has a lot of monologues, and it feels a bit incomprehensible just by reading the English subtitles. I hope there is a subtitle team that can do the subtitles for this...

A psychological drama with a very thick text, which vividly reflects the sexual repression bound by religion. Jesus overlaps with the image of a horse here. The male protagonist's love for a horse means fanatical religious worship, and stabbing a blind horse's eyes is the result of sexual sprouting. Ashamed, in addition to the wonderful metaphor of the male protagonist, the interaction between the doctor and the male protagonist is also full of tension, such as Richard Burton's lines are too...

The movie itself is good, but if you look at it from a dramatic point of view, it's a relatively mediocre movie. The images of Ma and others are too concrete, and it is a psychological film in itself. We might as well use film language to express the psychological state that cannot be presented by drama in a more abstract way. As a result, it has now become a simple narrative, lacking the mystery of exploration. The psychiatrist is a bright spot, but lacks his own psychological span. It is...

Boldly and shockingly visualizing this famous drama, Lu Meite used a very deep and oppressive lens language to describe the battle between the beasts and the gods in the depths of human nature. The teenager found a new god in the depression of childhood, empathized with his fetish Shaped a unique sacrificial ceremony, the doctor is also seeking God's salvation in the depressing marriage, the natural eruption of sexual desire and the contradiction of his divine dogma are connected through the...

Sao Nian grew up under the misdirection of closed and repressed religion and developed a passionate worship of horses. The film is full of metaphors and tension. The discussion of religion, psychology and behavior can actually be in line with the Lao Mai incident that has happened so far. Li, I was most impressed by the celestial body Sao Nian riding a horse under the moonlit...

Richard Burton's lines are so good that he masters multiple long monologues effortlessly. Repressed families, dull married life to suffocation, let's save them with the passion that breaks out of the shackles and the ardent love that spews...

It’s getting harder and harder to watch this kind of crazy movie. In fact, if this movie is just telling a story, it won’t make me feel so boring. The story of this movie is quite interesting, but the ending part really made me feel I felt extreme psychological discomfort, and it also strengthened the idea that I could only give a passing score. There are too many script metaphors in this film. The lines are very annoying to look at, and many paragraphs are also relatively boring. After seeing...

I haven't read Peter Sheffer's original work, but I was shocked by the performance of the actors. Burton's aura is too strong, his eyes are especially sharp, and the large monologue highlights the characteristics of literary adaptation. It is conceivable that the effect of the stage play should be more test of emotional explosion. Well, for the theme, there are many angles that can be interpreted, and the influence of belief and reality on character shaping? Sheffer also wrote Amadeus, the...
