    I feel bored in recent documentaries. I’ve seen "I don’t know why documentaries are getting boring, so that things like Emperor Penguin Diaries can also win prizes." There is no other meaning. In fact, Oscars, which are very interesting documentaries, are also...

    7. Conman. Do the coup. Timeless Sphinx. Pleasure of flesh. The details exude the charm of the documentary itself. At the climax, Michael Nyman’s soundtrack enhances the drama & tension, and Satie is responsible for the limited aftertaste added sth vaguely profound. As for the novel about the novel, probably only a few 3D shots can be...

    It's a bit boring. The humanity revealed at the end of the film is quite profound. Friends can only share adversity but not wealth. There is a saying that a person without a goal will always work for a person with a goal, because a halo will only belong to one person. In addition, the final point of the male protagonist about putting himself in danger forever is not...

    Dreams are really a wonderful obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s not easy to intersperse a few clues from different angles to tell something interesting that is not too interesting to people. What’s even more commendable is that not only the details and overall picture of the event are clearly displayed, but also the characters are displayed. The characterization and the state of mind at the time are also vividly expressed. At the end of the story, it is not a happy ending like a drama, but it...

    There is no why

    You are the thousandth person who came to ask me why, but I can only tell you: There is no why!

    American journalists who are used to the "inverted pyramid" narrative structure always try to find something more reasonable for this bizarre report In their minds, without the solid motive, the whole...

    "Dream Life"

    The combination of black and white pictures and color pictures is the characteristic of the documentary. The interview pictures in the first part of the documentary are black and white pictures, including the preparation work before going to the building, the tension of the people on the road and...

Man on Wire quotes

  • Sgt Charles Daniels: ...I observed the tight rope dancer... because you couldn't call him a walker... approximately half-way between the two towers. I personally figured I was watching something that somebody else would never see again in the world. Thought it was once in a lifetime.

  • Philippe Petit: As a child, I loved to climb everywhere. I'll let the psychiatrists decide why. Maybe I wanted to escape my time. Maybe I wanted to see the world from a different perspective and I was an explorer at heart. Who knows and who cares? But I was a little climber. And nobody, not my parents, not the teachers, nobody could stop me.
