    What give all that is tragic, whatever its form, the characteristic of the sublime, is the first inkling of the knowledge that the world and life can give no satisfaction, and are not worth our investment in...

    Ten-star masterpiece! Altman doesn't seem to want to tell any stories, but the audience has already felt the complicated emotions that blow to the face. This is a tender poem dedicated to the wounded and confused in the 1970s. The lives of 25 characters are intertwined, accompanied by With those independently composed songs, the stage is full of loneliness after the hustle and bustle. The complex voice-over and sound effect processing are the best footnotes of the times, and the sad ending is...

    In the age of rock and roll, to shoot old-fashioned music, of course, there is a motive to ridicule the right-wing old and rough group (a garishly dressed female singer asks who is Julie Christie? Comparing the difference in clothes between the two is ironic). But Altman's sarcasm isn't mean and sinister (as well as targeting journalists who appear to be left-wing avant-gardes who are actually vain). The age gap and the cultural gap, of course it is impossible to understand all the stalks, but...

    To understand the spirit of postwar America, this is enough. The group portraits in the whole film are wrapped in the atmosphere created by hippie music, which looks a bit messy and is a typical emotional narrative. I thought that the gunshots of the singer's assassination at the end would make this extremely indulgent and diverse "field" come to nothing, but who knows that it will be business as usual. Maybe this is the American...

    It's easy to get caught up in the collective unconsciousness without knowing it. What is often easily tied to the collective unconscious is collective meaninglessness. This is the grand sleepwalking of a group of...

    Continuing the tradition of watching musicals on long-haul flights. This movie is kind of awesome. It feels like a ramble for nearly three hours, and the characters appear in turns like a revolving lantern. It seems to be pointless, but it almost accurately restores the mental state of the post-war generation of young people in the United States: everyone dreams of becoming an artist, narcissism and self-indulgence. Doubts are subtly intertwined. Fame, violence, disorder, ambiguous and...

    Altman's formalist tragedy ensemble. Pick a field of absurdity. The ostrich bury its head, hide its ears and steal the bell, entertaining to the death of the performing arts Ukiyo-e. Female reporters, love singers, and ill actresses, mocking her with a powerful dose. The last track "You may say that I ain't free, but it don't worry me" hits the bullseye. Death is not in the way, please keep singing and dancing, it is...

    8.2 Because the United States is a mobile feast, the feast must be a mess of cups and plates, and it is extremely noisy, but the loud noise during singing gradually decreases as the film progresses, more like recording a concert, until a striptease does not make the noise. Re-entry, at this time we find how hypocritical the purity of the singing is, not to mention the chorus of everyone in the near-perfect ending of this dull and lengthy...

    Three and a half. A general understanding of presentation techniques and film themes. But for a duo of country music and American politics, there's too little fun to get out of this movie. It's still so long, 160 minutes, and it's been noisy and rarely quiet. It's like going to a music festival in Tennessee in the 1970s, and the singer on stage got...

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!
