    The paradox of identity attribution re-judgments the historical review. Unable to devote herself to the eternal God and unwilling to be mediocre to the trivial life, Ida, her future is as unstable as the handheld camera at the end of the film, echoing the fate of the whole of...

    I feel pretty good about the headroom. In those shots, the sky and nature are overwhelmed, and people look helpless. I like the frontal follow-up shot of the last one, which is powerful and makes sense of the calmness and depression in the front. I just don't like certain low angles, kind of framing for the sake of composition. There are gains and losses in the black-and-white picture, the gain is concise and poetic, and the loss is the meaning of "looking at art". In the 21st century, black...

    Polish version of Zhang Chunru. What does it mean to put people in the lower half, to highlight "there is a god three feet above the...

    As I don’t know much about Poland, I can’t see through the director’s deep reflection on Polish politics, religion and race in such a small story, so I can’t empathize with Ada and understand her growth. But even so, I didn't dare to blink and watched the feature film, and I had tears in my eyes. It was entirely because of the textbook-like photography, which was so beautiful and depressing that people were afraid to miss it in the blink of an...

    This is the result of equating film with photography, and Tarkovsky is much better by comparison, at least the latter still allows the audience to see his attempts at feigning...

    [Beijing Film Festival Screening] Much better than expected. Retro black and white 4:3 images, sophisticated photography composition, minimalist expression techniques, and disappearing background music. Using these forms, it tells the process of a nun who was born outside the world entering the world and being born again. Still feel it. The 4:3 black and white picture is solemn and retro, and the light and shadow effect of the picture is beautiful, but it also seems to be dazzling and...

    Empty, with an artificial sense of form. Depressing the character space, the camera looks at it objectively, and at the level of plot foreshadowing and performance language, we try our best to make subtraction. It's a pity that the white space after the reduction is not round, lack of transformation and explanation, emotional rendering, and the whole body of the play is shriveled, like the pieces of fish that Dreyer and Bresson...
