    I prefer his cartoons to Wes Anderson's films, they're cute. It takes courage to vigorously promote dog culture in a cat-based...

    Both stop-motion and Wes are my loves, but still terrified. Such excellent art is built on such a dualistic value core, and the final outcome is terrifying. Even if it is used as a political metaphor, the ruling power is hereditary, and the dog is in the upper position and the cat is imprisoned, which makes people feel a hundred thousand ghosts. And it is still promoting the human-centered arrogant ideology of "a dog's obedience and loyalty are the conditions for becoming a friend of mankind",...

    Numerous metaphors, fascism, hegemony of public opinion, brainwashing... It's meaningful in terms of style, but the form is bigger than the content. It is a metaphor for such a huge amount of information, but it is too shallow in the depth of the plot. Whether it's the boy's "forced buying and selling" or the villain's "instant whitewashing", it's just frustrating. The contradictions and conflicts make people feel soft, and the audience can't feel too much warmth and hope. Thoughtful, but only...

    Starting from "The Grand Budapest Hotel", Wes Anderson began to gradually step out of his comfort zone and embrace the world with a broader perspective and a still self-perspective: In "Cloth", he reminisces about the times that have passed; In "Isle of Dogs", he even boldly wrote a political fable. Although this purpose has swallowed up part of the character's emotions and motivations, it still matches with the perfect Anderson-style obsessive-compulsive...

    The production is amazing and worth replaying a few more times. I thought of the animation boyhood (fog) that carves discs in a rental house. The first half is great, but the script wants to explain too much, and there are too many compromises to expand the audience. The second half The collapse of the plot still does not solve the key contradiction in such films, that is, the relationship between the human and the dog itself. What is the relationship between the owner and the pet that makes...

    I watched the original sound at prada foundation, and it was interesting that I couldn't understand Japanese without subtitle translation. I felt like a dog who couldn't understand human language. Trivia and an interview with the dog actor, this easter egg is too surprising! !...

    The stark "white people save the world" is just replaced by women. Interfering in the internal affairs of other countries is a Japanese perception with a strong orientalism. Isle of Dogs in Japan, all dogs speak English? The American exchange students gave generous speeches in English in the class, and everyone could understand them? linguistic-imperialism. The founding of the country by middle school students at the end is also too much, and the Japanese political system is too playful to...
