    In fact, I personally think that it is only second to "2001" and on an equal footing with "The Shining". But I don't know why the rating is not ideal. Kubrick skillfully used the lens and color matching in the film, this dark blue tone is extremely elegant. Through the mysterious and fragrant picture style, it depicts the greed and latent prostitution of modern people. And the most tragic thing is that Ku Lao passed away soon after the film was completed, and there was no chance to see the...

    Really nice. Chaos, temptation, self-esteem, three-dimensional human nature, the cult ritual is slightly like a Divine Comedy, with a long...

    Archives 2014.11.9.4:30pm Discussing emotional and lustful relationships in a typical mainstream structure, when Nicole Kidman begins narrating a glimpse of a naval officer, the hero embarks on a journey of self-imposed exile. The loss of a father, a street prostitute, and the romance of a mansion keep him encountering new shocks. The puzzle cannot be solved, but the narrowness of the mainstream structure is further exposed. It can be seen as a reply to Antonioni's...

    Four and a half stars. Adapted from Arthur Schnitzler's "Fantastic Tales". Kubrick's posthumous work, a more open and more obscure "Shining", is an excellent work for learning the language of film and symbols. Just like Mandy in the film, he often closed his eyes before he was alive, and only opened his eyes after death. Niu Kushen, Shuai Ah Tang, and Minicole really knelt after watching this film! (It's a pity that Tom's acting skills in the second half of the show are a little off.) A visual...

    {★★★☆} This movie is about an unsuccessful sex session, or, to be precise, a lot of them. But in marriage, you only have two kinds of sexual intercourse: with your spouse, and with someone else. The Harfords linger on unsuccessful sex with other people throughout the film, and then come back to the starting point after a circle. Stanley Kubrick's blend of tone, dream, and provocation is so well-balanced that we almost forget that the keys to all the puzzles are neatly hidden in the film. We...

    It's really a movie to watch on my knees. Under Kubrick's precise control of color, detail and atmosphere, the audience is like a marionette, and every reaction when watching the movie has been predetermined by Kubrick in advance. The discussion of sex, power, and the alienation of human nature in modern society is more reflected in visual impact rather than lines. It is truly an insurmountable...

    Supplementary signature. This time it finally came down smoothly. A discussion on the conflict between carnal desire (primitive animal nature) and loyalty (morality): "We can't find the answer in life for the rest of our lives... There is something we should do as soon as possible, what is it? Fuck!" It is said that the filmmaker At that time, the marriage between Liangtang and Nicole also went wrong as in the film. Kubrick really fulfilled others and wronged...

    ★★★ In the days of renting, the movie was generally not bad, and the content was forgotten. What impressed me is that although the content is difficult to understand, the atmosphere of the film is very contagious, and it has always attracted people to watch it. Nicole Kidman is really beautiful naked, otherwise...

    I'm a little disappointed with the last blow of God Ku's life. Using the rhythm and form of a sci-fi film to explore the most mysterious aspects of sex is completely right, but using symbolism throughout, it feels a bit like a punch to cotton. God Ku is a little merciful to Tom and...
