    Through the perspective of a child, the film largely describes the life of Swedish immigrants in Denmark, and reveals the hardships of the people at the bottom, but behind the scenes is the serious class antagonism at the end of the 19th century. At the end of the film, the father and son, one to go and one to stay, symbolize the changing situation and the changing world pattern of the old and the new. The shot of Pell facing the sea and rushing into the distance is the ultimate ideal of a new...

    The 41st Palme d'Or winning film, the film is very neat, the image style is more classical, the atmosphere is calm and full of movement. Through a pair of father and son who fled to Denmark, alluding to the inequality and oppression in the entire civilized world, the suffering of being under the fence makes the statue of Jesus seem powerless. It is so sad to leave his father at the end, and from here a desperate Pell, looking for a place free from class oppression, turned and walked towards the...

    The 1987 Cannes Palme d'Or and the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, the style is similar to "The Clog Tree", very realistic, the snow scene in Denmark is beautiful, the difference is that the plot is more compact than "The Clog Tree", but "The Clog Tree" More artistic. The ending of "The Tree of Clogs" is disappointing, and the ending of "Pell the Conqueror" is hopeful, albeit slim. Pell is a strong and brave child. His father is old and has a weak personality. He can't give Pell anything....

    On the market day, the butler held Eric's hand, and Luther on the stage greeted Billy in the crowd; the dead baby stretched out in the sea, and the abandoned woman looked at her new love from behind the bushes; half a crown can be depended on. Earned by a hundred strokes of nettle sticks; castrated mistresses put on red; every cow has a long name, as important as the names of the four prophets. "Pell the...

    Nordic Film Class ③ The theme song The beautiful story is too rich. . . Worthy of being the first epic, when I saw a frame on the name of max von sydow at the end of the film, I suddenly felt a little...

    Shadow 19115: Describes poverty, but it is far less profound than "Mice and Men". The fate of each middle is quite satisfactory, the love that is strangled, the father is old, but he just wants to lie in bed and drink coffee, but in the end, the hope is still dashed. The only way to resist the gene is given by the director's forbearance, which is to make you crazy and make you stupid. The master's oppression is not reflected much. The heroine already likes Pell, and it will be sooner or later...

    How a father and son make a living in a class-defined society. The father almost lost his dignity and had to take care of each other's future. Even though my father finally said something cruel like "I can't walk anymore, go alone", we all knew he was exhausted. It wasn't his fault, Pelle was growing up in a short period of time, and even though he was deformed, he was educated. Most of us in the real world are not conquerors, but...

    Lack of distinct layers, some passages are good and even shockingly left a deep impact. At the end, Dajing Niu B's characterization is ok. In other words, the Nordic style has become the two most disliked regions in Europe along with...

    #filmfestivalwatching# A personal epic, a record of awe-inspiring style. The director is very capable of controlling the rhythm of the film. It is very difficult to make a 2.5-hour film like this. What is more commendable are the actors. The young Zhengta Pelle is very entertaining (but it seems that he will be disabled when he grows up). The other actors are also great! worth...

    The new world is always full of temptations and unknowns, making people yearn for. The photography is amazing, the natural light looks like a day in heaven, and the farmer's interior has some shades of...

    The humble existence of the humble life

    The humbleness and helplessness of life, the tragedies of one humble life after another, even the slightest hope in life has all been extinguished. The father, who is already old, finally has no courage and physical strength to embark on a new journey. It is really like this. Life like an ant....

    A soul that is not conquered is a "conqueror"

    (Sketch on mobile phone, unwritten)

    The original Oscar, the 1988 Cannes Palme d'Or, and the 1989 Oscar for the best foreign language film, there are very few films that can compare with it.
