    The three comments below are not out of the group, I can't see the greatness of the group play in this film, nor the greatness of Robert Altman, thank...

    Seemingly disorganized, it is tightly controlled, with multiple layers of scheduling and soundtracks framing the raucous and exhausting scene of life and death in Nashville. The personality of the author of Ultraman is close to the campaign propaganda car that runs through the whole film, wandering around but being mechanically indifferent. Ronee Blakley's on-stage "cuck cluck" provides the only moment of derailment due to illness (immunity spheres to breach civilization??), and she ends up...

    Altman movie. One film covers almost every aspect of American society in the 1970s. Absolutely unparalleled group play scheduling ability. The dimensionality of the editing in time and space is astounding. The sound effect background of the whole film is composed of extravagant sounds and whispers, and outlines the panorama of American entertainment after the hippies are flooded in the...

    A satirical panorama of America with blurred boundaries between politics and entertainment, boasting multilayered plot and cogent characterization, done in unique dazzling style with remarkable improv-ensemble performances. A work of unprecedented audacity and prodigious...

    Niubi's group play scheduling, excellent music taste. It is not so much the Ukiyo-e of the 1970s in the United States as it is to say that it is a diagrammatic restoration of the social group portrait after the Vietnam War. The scene control is precise, the dialogue is intriguing, and each character portrayal is highly symbolic, representative but not overwhelming. However, every detail is meticulously described, resulting in the lack of narrative theme and focus of the...

    7/10. The group of ridiculously tragic characters depicted by Ultraman can’t find any narrative chain between each other, and the direction is unclear, but there is no shortage of heart-warming moments: furniture causes car collisions and the noise of political propaganda horns, virtuous and generous. Housewives can't help the temptation of harassing phone calls, the racetrack drowns out singing, dreams of being used as a stripper's out-of-tune waiter, the death of a star can't stop the show,...

    I think Ultraman's films have a very contradictory fusion. The collage of the clips, the performance style, the camera movement scenes, etc. all make you feel that these characters are living characters in real life, and the sense of reality is very strong. However, the relationship between sound and picture and the handling of details are obviously deliberate. Maybe the director wants to use this fusion to express himself and record the purpose of an era, but this film is still too American to...

    Altman uses a de-narrative style and excellent group image presentation to restore the style of Nashville to the audience. Large pieces of country music performances strengthen the characteristics of the times, and the background setting of the upcoming election also provides political insights. Various interpretations finally shattered the dreamer's dream because of a gunshot. The irony here reaches its highest point. Of course, the details that seem to be inattentive but actually have...

Nashville quotes

  • John Triplette: I just want to tell you a little bit about what we're trying to do. I'm not - I know you're astute politically and I'm certainly not here to sell you a bill of goods.

    Bill: I don't care. I don't care about politics.

    John Triplette: Okay, great. Well, let me tell you then, I've got a problem that I think would work to your advantage. As you know this redneck music is very popular right now. And I've got an awful lot of these local yokels on the bill, you know, singing...

    Bill: Your basic country folk...

    John Triplette: Crapola...

    Bill: Right

    John Triplette: So, I think - what I'm going for is a broader appeal, you know.

    Bill: Which is where we would fit in.

    John Triplette: More than just this Southern thing. And I think that you could really - a really hip group, like yours, could walk off with the evening.

    Bill: Yeah, probably the only rock group on there?

    John Triplette: Absolutely.

  • Mary: You see, it really doesn't make any difference because we're registered Democrats.

    John Triplette: Well, I'm a registered Democrat!

    Bill: The only reason we're registered Democrats is because your father was a registered Democrat and his father's a registered Democrat!
