    Cohen's song, as the only soundtrack, presupposes a humanistic perspective. Based on this, he first builds a space that is different from the yellow sand in the sky. Before Dongmu's "Unforgivable", it revolved around the theme of mourning and compassion. The western anti-type that created Ultraman's...

    A. The iconic zoom lens quickly establishes the positional relationship between people and the world. Efficient narration also preserves the texture to the greatest extent. From the color of photography to the inner emotions, it is like a cocktail with rich layers: the sweetness of tenderness (warm care of collective life), the spicyness of jest (comedy image of external strength and dryness), cruel bitterness (unprovoked killing of passers-by), the aftertaste is faint The sourness (the white...

    #filmarchive# Altman's many hallmarks: a meandering cinematic narrative, satirical humor, real dialogue that overlaps and intersects, characters from a multitude of people, and razor-sharp social...

    It's always heartbreaking to think about it! (Because of the contrast of Warren Beatty?) The picture is blurry, like an oil painting, it is not very clear, but the whole is so beautiful. 4K big screen, the wet and green village in the opening scene couldn't help crying as soon as it came out, the rain really looked so wet and humid. (It's a strange tear) (Cohen's music also contributed to a certain extent) (The key point is that Vilmos and Cohen are both TTs that just hung up this...

    awesome. The cross-editing is very eye-catching. For example, at the end, everyone saves the burning, and the church has fallen into disrepair. The combination of cohen's songs and movies is also great, especially the male protagonist ego muttered to himself in his room after being injured. Cohen's songs are only left with the accompaniment, and the conceited monologue of the male protagonist becomes the lyrics at this moment. It is the tenderness of the movie. The brothel was called bearpaw...

    "Two Tigers and Dragons" ➡️ "Unforgivable" ➡️ "Thunderbolt"... Ultraman's "Hanamura" does not exist in the above-mentioned evolution history of Western films, but can be regarded as Jean-Luc in Western films • Godard's "Weekend", a revisionist western that breaks the grammar and rhetoric of genre films from the inside out and re-examines its inner meaning. In remote and isolated communities, the operating mechanism of capitalism and subdivisions have replaced the voice of the heroic narrative...

    Just watched the terrible "Once Upon a Time in the West" in the morning, and it's hard not to find it pleasing to watch this one in the evening. Of course, aside from the subject matter, it should be Fellini's film that truly benchmarks "Hana Village" from the image level, not any genre film designed with viewing comfort as the primary purpose. The similarity is not just the multi-tracked vocals, but also the events and actions thrown around in the ensemble scheduling, and these fragments are...

    2021095 SIFF Sixth Game, Great Bright. In the anti-western Hanamura world, men build rules but are greedy for more, women see through the deal but are powerless. Belief did not reappear when the fire in the church was extinguished. Before the fire, it was already a mess. The white snow will eventually cover death, and only the narcotic eyes can see the remaining poetry. Leonard Cohen's song perfectly matches the temperament of the film.

    The light hits beautifully. Its lyrics are the director's off-screen narration. During the transition, the thin picture information is shot with a large scene to highlight the content of the music. So not translating the lyrics is a...

    How to survive that period of lawless jungle

    I was fascinated by the beginning of the film, and Cohen's voice awakened the continuous sadness in my heart. I shed tears at the end of the film, not just for an endless love, but for the meaning of the whole life. If you were born in a jungle society, and you have obtained personal wealth by...

    Why John McCabe must die

    The 1960s and 1970s were an era of ups and downs in American politics and society, as well as an important facade of Hollywood—the era of decline of western films. Western films have always been given the mission of promoting the American spirit. As a result, the heroic cowboys, the awe-inspiring...

McCabe & Mrs. Miller quotes

  • John McCabe: I need two more.

    Archer: All right, I've got one more I can let you have. You wait a minute. Kate! Come on out here.

    [Kate comes out]

    Archer: You can have her, but you're going to have to get her some teeth.

    John McCabe: All right. How much for three?

    Archer: Three? $80 each.

    John McCabe: $80 for a chippy? I can get a goddamn horse for 50!

  • John McCabe: Ain't nobody gonna to touch one of them little ladies until we're open for business. And we ain't open for business until we get them God damn tents up. Now, you get back to work. Get your ass off your shoulder, and we'll have a little fun around here.
