Hou Dao went abroad to shoot a tribute to the classic study, which is also a rare work without Zhu Tianwen participating in the screenwriting. Through the female nanny puppet show and Li Pingbin's camera, he observes the life of a single mother in France from an oriental perspective, and then changes from the cramped interior to the red balloons floating in the empty sky, and looks at each other. Under the music? The notes that seem to be rhythmic, record and write the forgotten time in the...

[Exhibition at the China Film Archive] Film version. Hou Hsiao-hsien is another tribute film shot in a non-Chinese speaking country. Like a collage of many elements. In addition to the huge red balloons floating over Paris, there are still Taiwanese elements (puppet show), and Chinese film students and traditional opera "Zhang Sheng Boils the Sea" are also added. The red balloons flying in the air are ethereal, graceful and surreal, which is in sharp contrast to the dilapidated life of the...

Halo, this one is too good, how can it be so natural and vivid. I originally thought that the red balloon was the perspective of a city wanderer, a floating city guide, but I didn't expect that the plot was actually connected on this basis, weaving this smart poetry into the undercurrent of life, and those wandering shots were all How did you shoot it, it was too free and comfortable. At the end of the film, the red balloon flew away, and the wonderful life continued. It's so good and so good,...

Similar to the situation at coffee time, with the familiar sense of camera and soundtrack, Hou hopes to expand his daily context...but life in a different (country) is really difficult to empathize with. Finally, "The Forgotten Time" was covered, and I knew that the real title should be "The Forgotten Time", and made a "Time Trilogy" with the "Coffee Time" and "The Best Time" in front of...

In fact, the biggest feeling for me is that this film is full of a kind of feminine warmth, a process of revealing the essence of life from a seemingly aimless city walk. The red balloons wandered erratically in the air, sometimes following them like shadows, and after a brief encounter, they disappeared. Just like the dream is always close to us, but never touch its warm and bright face. But please don't let it float away when you see it...

The stream of life consciousness that has been inherited from the coffee time, elements such as exoticism, mother-son love, red balloons, etc., are just like the puppets in the film. As prop symbols, the thread behind it is the key to the world. Chaos and mediocrity, all in it. In this sense, if the film is a dramatic art, then Hou Hsiao-hsien can stop...
