Recently I was reading "Snow Falling Fragrant Cedar Tree", and I was addicted to this story and the translator's beautiful and delicate translation. The original work is a great work. It uses the ultimate description and moving details to outline a very heavy story, which makes me fascinated. I was so drunk that I couldn't even read it. The film version did not perfectly reproduce the half-memoir, half-narrative feel of the original book, nor did it perfectly reproduce those rich and meticulous...

Although the photography and editing are excellent, there are always a lot of slow motion and flashbacks in the memories and the low-pitched soundtrack. The film's large sections of memories, fragmented intersections, did not well show the criss-crossing of emotions, and the psychological changes of post-war discrimination and prejudice. Perhaps the expression space given by words should be deeper and more powerful. In the face of lost love and hatred of war, the truth comes slowly like snow,...

Movies adapted from novels may be somewhat bound by the original work. You can imagine the difficulty of replacing words with shots. If the male protagonist is replaced by a lawyer, it will be more in-depth. Because there are too few shots of lawyers, his statement in court lacks the necessary foreshadowing. The heroine's acting skills can't be worse, there is only one expression on her face that is staring, which is universal in all...

The excitement belongs to others, only the heartbreak is her own. She has been able to hug you without any grudge against a person who has been through nine years and has been damaged by war and cannot forget her destiny. But this film is too fragmented, and the two perspectives of men and women are too separated. By the end of the emotional accumulation, the film is...

The film was nominated for Best Cinematography at the 72nd Academy Awards. The first half of the film is dull and messy, but the second half is brilliant. Directly poke at the weakness of human nature, in the face of national hatred and family hatred, can you still maintain a righteous stand and be an upright person? It is a pity that films reflecting on the war are always shot by the victimized country, and the perpetrator country has so far spared no effort to promote the glorious record of...
