Ivan's Childhood Comments

Bailee 2022-03-28 09:01:07

Twelve-year-old Ivan is a guerrilla boy scout. He narrowly escaped after the war killed all of his family and the concentration camp slaughtered a group of his teenage companions. But the war has irrevocably shattered his fate and destroyed his life, and he has become a warrior who is not afraid of life and death and cannot survive. Ivan has only anger and hatred in his heart, and has no ability to live peacefully and love. He can only be willing and can only be sent to the battlefield. He fell...

Searching for a nail in the ruins, hanging a photo on the broken wall, closing a door that doesn't need to exist, no gunfire and no blood, but the brutality of war is so strong in this...

Tarkovsky's realism has a strong sense of form: only it is based on pure realism, it is dark enough to avoid any possibility of heroism; only it uses messy dreams, poetic photography, complicated The dazzling techniques such as long-lens scheduling, negative film and sound and picture separation are the forms, which are enough to be somber and let the audience experience the cruel despair that is breathless. The kiss of the birch forest makes me cry out to...

My childhood was a piece of paper full of sadness, which was completely destroyed by the fire of war, so I grew old overnight, and my face was covered with deep lines as melancholy as earthworms. My emotions also disappeared like a cocoon, like an angry gun, full of cold and cruel expressions. However, in the middle of the night, perhaps dreaming back, the past years, relatives, like butterflies, fluttering, the sun lazily penetrates the birch forest, the singing is graceful, and the joyful...

Perfect! A work of genius is often understood just by looking at the first few shots. Textbook-like composition, Ivan behind the cobweb, Ivan walking into the cracked ruins, the door in the ruins opening and closing, Ivan struggling to pull up the bell, cracks on the wall... tsk tsk!...

Dreams do not allow you to escape, so you can only fight to the death with reality. In the beginning, there was no suffocating smoke, your day was the night of stars; later you went to look for the stars and caught up with them, like picking up the starlight at the bottom of a well and indulging in the bottomless darkness. Ivan is only a child, but he has already experienced it all his...

"Ivan's Childhood" is indeed very poetic, and Tarkovsky's switching between dreams and reality is very accurate. The war is just a background symbol, and the inner struggle of the characters is the focus of the director's attention. However, I am not too fond of this "poetry movie" that blindly suppresses the plot, and would rather watch the long-shot close-up in "Little Soldier Zhang Ga". Scored...

It is inevitable that I want to use the fashionable phrase "kneeling". He completely disobeyed the theory that the script should be presented in words and then translated into the language of the camera. He has no such presupposition, no such transformation. He expresses it directly in the language of the camera. The movement of the mirror is light, erratic, and unpredictable, but the world in the lens is like Leonardo da Vinci's well-thought-out perspective oil painting with a foreground and a...

Starting from the children who have lost their homes to the war, they focus on depicting the fate of individuals in the war; the subjective and objective perspectives can be switched freely, the encounter in the forest is like a dream, and the kiss in the trench is very romantic; after the gunfire subsided, the sun pierced the misty landscape. The freehand shots of the stillness and the reflection of the lake light under the fire of war reveal a desolate beauty; to avoid direct depiction of...

[B－] It cannot be said that Laota's debut novel is immature, and many scenes and exquisite ideas have already begun to emerge; but it is definitely imperfect, and the style is broken, so there is such an easy-to-understand book. The old tower, but it just lost its charm. It is said that it is "seeing World War II from the perspective of children", but the war itself is almost never depicted, let alone the cruelty of war. Children are also endowed with strength even stronger than adults. I just...
