    This is the color film! Antonioni plays with color, light, and sound, and uses what he is best at in the boring life of the middle class to create a fascinating allegory of the industrial...

    I really hate Monica Vitti's jerky, psychotic face dangling from beginning to end. Industrialization, alienation, interpersonal deserts, the themes are not new, and the performance is not outstanding. . . Disappointed. ....

    [Beijing Film Festival Screening] Antonioni's first color film. On the impact of industrial pollution on the human heart. I don't like this one very much. A narrative that's vague or even non-existent, deafening factory machines and shrill electronic foley sound effects, morbidly neurotic heroine. So noisy and bored, I wish I could slap the heroine a few times. You can only surrender and give up, and go to sleep. one and a half...

    I walked out of the house and went to the city with no purpose. Tired! I was lost in the silent night and the loss of happiness. It's like a winter night, when a heavy snowfall must suffocate the world. Friends, I call for help: where is she, the answers of friends are all false. I came to the glass door where she came every night; I hurried through the sunken garden... In the end, I went down to a place full of dust - Rimbaud's "Desert of...

    It is recommended by sin. The theme and content of the film are very similar to "Desire Express". Apart from "Zoom", Antonioni's films where men and women are alone I'll never know what they're doing. Almost fell asleep....

    I finally saw Vitti in color, and her nervousness combined with the noise to make her restless. Antonioni used the foggy factory ship port to embellish the dilapidated and depressing scene with symbolic bright colors to bring out that emotion to the extreme. Love the heavenly seaside singing, Beijing Film Festival Archives. 2021.8.7, 4K restoration version rewatch, the epidemic has come again, after looking at the sea for a long time, I will no longer be interested in what happens on...

    Except for the large blocks of color, there is nothing to watch, and the strike at the beginning flashes by, changing the neurosis of middle-class women to accuse capitalism, and the perspective is a bit hypocritical. The audience was tortured by a mad woman for two hours, and there was no applause at the end, which is really rare in a film...

    It's not that there is no plot, the metaphorical factory industrial society scene is not as much as I thought, the dialogue is more than I thought, I still prefer Ropoulos, the picture is more lyrical than...

    Desolation feels so beautiful, I like it so much, I'm going to Hebei to go out and try to describe the inner world of patients with severe depression. The sound + the noise and loneliness built by colors are very subtle. It's a great pity that the film is built in an already very leisurely place. It is difficult for the middle-class European society to impress the audience of East Asian social animals under the hard...
