    All sexual relationships are like fish and water. Thinking of Eileen Chang's description of red roses and white roses, which one is happier, Fan Nianzi or cinnabar mole? However, only the French dare to photograph the affair so vividly, romantically and confidently. When she was young, Varda liked delicate tones very...

    When a woman falls, thousands of women make up for it! Whether this happiness is too rigid, whether it is by the lake or in the deep forest, doing the same thing even if the hands are no longer the people of the past, happiness is like a routine. Does this tell us the importance of a spare tire? Another translation of the film is "random", which is not something ordinary people can do,...

    [BAMPFA] 2017.9.16.5:30pm A very fun movie that makes the audience puzzled. After the death of his wife, the tone of the narrative changes. The story advances to the end in the music, as if it has a deep meaning, but refuses to intervene with further choreography....

    Whether the love that leads to happiness can be calculated or measured, whether it can be transferred, whether it can be shared. The answer cannot be found under the lens of Varda, who is influenced by Brecht's theory of alienation. Her approach is to immerse the audience's eyes in happy colors and happy objects, and then because of the creator's ambiguous attitude, Too calm to deal with and consciously think about whether monogamy is reasonable. But the answer is obvious - as long as you are...

    Agnès Varda reflects the beauty of "happiness" through bright and strong colors. The superposition of love seems to be a win-win situation from some angles, but the possessive psychology of lovers in love is destined to be unshareable. Behind the short-lived happiness is the An exclusive affirmation and divine interpretation of love. Is having multiple loves the so-called...

    The editing technique of the scene where Riccio went downstairs in "5 to 7 o'clock" reappeared when the husband saw his wife's body. In addition, the scene of the husband driving with the tiger, the scene of entering the lover's room for the first time, and the scene with the lover The editing of the sex scenes is very unique. The composition of the camera movement and the movement of the actors are concise, powerful and beautiful. The choice of colors is as bold as the treatment at the end of...

    91/100, which can be seen as Varda examining marriage and extramarital affairs. The camera always seems to swipe to the still life intentionally, opening up the layers of the space and creating a hidden perspective to peep at this unexpected feeling. Most of the actions of the two are based on an aerial shot, which symbolizes the "break-in" of the original constant status quo in the way of painting. // The final series of partial close-ups constitute slices of life, so the 80-minute volume is...

    1. The truth of love; 2. A man's happiness is the achievement of women, sex and his own desires, and a woman's happiness is the only one and everything; 3. A beautiful love triangle is told in the brightest and warmest colors, but it makes the People deeply experience the coldness and cruelty that this seemingly beautiful love...

    A feminist dirge with a very ironic title. Varda's ability to tell a story naturally and plainly (complimentary) is not inferior to that of Rohmer, and there are cruel truths of life in the plainness. The sets and costumes of the characters are matched with bright and full color aesthetics, and the several jumping cuts are all magical strokes. Although they are sudden but smooth, they are really ordinary and full of pioneering and experimental. This is really power! Varda's work at the age of...

  • François Chevalier: You know, I met my wife when I was in the service. It was love at first sight. We married when I got out. Had I met you first, I'd live with you.
