    The forbidden person can only forbid the signifiers of thought, such as books and music, but people are often infatuated with the resistance to the forbidden signifiers, but they often forget the thinking itself. Human beings have not changed their old habits, forever and irrevocably living in Plato's cave, intoxicated by images of reality rather than...

    Not really Truffaut's best movie, but it's my favorite Truffaut...

    The adaptation is too bad to bear to look directly at... The mental depression and suffocation have been transformed into psychological restlessness and nervousness. Fabian's subtle anti-intellectual speech has been completely deleted and replaced by countless mechanical scraps. The whole movie is not about the collapse of civilization, but just a strange...

    This is a sci-fi movie where the job of firefighters is no longer to put out fires, but to burn books. After receiving the report, the fire brigade was dispatched, and the "criminal" house was searched for the book and burned in public. Whether it was philosophy, art, novels, or whatever, it was forbidden to read. This film was filmed in 1966, when what happened. Coincidentally, when I watch this movie now, what happened in the movie is happening...

    The idea of ​​"book people" is quite fun, but can't think about it, shouldn't everyone be a unique book? Why turn yourself into a human flesh...

    What Qin Shihuang did 2,000 years ago was not expected to be written into science fiction by Americans 2,000 years later. As far as the meaning of the subject matter is concerned, it is comparable to "1984", and it is also an extreme means for the regime to control the people. Truffaut's first color film, suspended trains, wide-screen TVs, and trapeze, now seem to be a reality....

    Although the logical loopholes in the film are big enough to walk a train, although this dystopian society has not established a sense of reality through images and scenery at all, that is, it lacks a thick subtext, it is more like a novel that relies on readers to make up their own minds. The evaluation criteria are unsatisfactory. However, guided by the rhythm of the music, with the weird atmosphere and subtle core settings, I still got great pleasure, especially the first half of the episode...

    The subject matter is very good, but it's a little dull. If it wasn't for Kang Yong's recommendation, I probably wouldn't watch...

    Based on the novel of the same name by American writer Ray Bradbury, the film tells the story of "burning books and pitting Confucians" from the West. This film is Truffaut's first color film and his first English film. It is quite effective in creating an atmosphere of social repression. It is one of his most politically conscious satirical films. The weakness also makes many satirical views lack the strength they...

    Three and a half stars, in the original book, Montag's mysterious encounter with Clarice, the emotional agitation of Montag's new-born blooming when he read poems to the wives in the house, the entanglement of consciousness and environment in the process of escape. The most exciting passages were made into European melodramas, and only the scenes endorsed by everyone at the end reflect the originality not found in the original work, but they can't be completely attributed to Truffaut, which was...

    Regret

    Ah, love, may we
    be sincere to each other! Because although the world is
    unfolding in front of us like a dream country,
    so colorful, beautiful and fresh, in
    fact there is no joy, no love and light,
    no certainty, no peace, no relief for pain;
    we are like living in a wilderness shrouded in darkness....

    A city that doesn't read

    Fahrenheit 451, it happens to be the temperature at which the book will be burnt to ashes. There is a group of people called Fireman whose job is not to put out fires, but to search for books, burn them, and arrest people who read them. Therefore, this city does not read books or print books, read...

Fahrenheit 451 quotes

  • Clarisse: But why do you burn books?

    Guy Montag: Books make people unhappy, they make them anti-social.

    Clarisse: Do you think I'm anti-social?

    Guy Montag: Why do you ask?

    Clarisse: Well... I'm a teacher, not quite actually, I'm still on probation. I was called to the administration office today, and I don't think I said the right things. I'm not at all happy about my answers.

  • Fireman: [the Book Woman is given 10 seconds to get out of the house] 1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... 9...

    Book Lady: Nine elevenths are ninety-nine, nine twelfths are a hundred and eight, nine thirteens are a hundred and seventeen, nine fourteenths are a hundred and twenty-six.
