    Is it chivalry or fate? It is modern to let the audience complete the information themselves, but the framework is still ruthless. Without the soundtrack, the real sound is not the soundtrack, and using the real sound to brew emotions is also a kind of round-up. Desires that have no outlet, beliefs that cannot be settled, the final outcome can only be...

    9# Very excellent Bresson work. Based on the European apotheosis stories of King Arthur, Lancelot and the Knights of the Round Table, and from the perspective of Lancelot, it is extremely grimly told about his confusion in the face of infatuation and justice, the unknown and God, in the face of behavior and will, ideal and reality. Powerlessness. And the usurpation of rebels, the story of the kingdom's decline. The most surprising thing is not the glamorous tragedy, but Bresson's handling of...

    The overhead camera is aimed at the hands and feet of people, but the faces of people are rarely shown. All these languages ​​point to "action". Our hands and feet have always been doing what we should do for us. The knights are in high spirits, like fellow army ants swept away everything they were supposed to fix. But what they are loyal to is not for them to enjoy, "the woman made for me does not belong to me", the separation of faith and body has already written their destiny for them, he...

    After watching Bresson's film, I suddenly felt that Hou Hsiao-hsien's "Assassin Nie Yinniang" was still too complicated and humanized. Minimalist, mechanical repetition, expressionless and even emotionless de-meaning, in fact, a middle-aged man with a mediocre or even ugly face was chosen to play Lancelot, the shining Knight of the Round Table in various literary works. This behavior has been deeply...

    I mainly focus on scenes, and most of the paragraphs are lacking in fluidity. Bresson should be looking for supplements from the sound, but the production has no sense of space at all. No matter how the armor shakes, the sound source is always maintained. almost the same distance from the lens. It may be an unrealistic fantasy to ask a director who has always relied on visual power to do this...

    The third SIFF show, this film can only be watched in the cinema, and it is definitely impossible to hold on to it alone at home. ? The plot is weak and quiet, and the whole movie theater is quiet. There is a lot of blank space and long shots in the picture. I feel that ordinary movies will not be shot like this. What impressed me more were the eyes of the horse, the sound of the horse, and the only collective haha ​​of the soldiers after Lansinoh died. I feel that this is a highly democratic...
