It's so awesome, and it's one after another, the more you go, the more awesome you get. It even gives a Dreyer feeling. Shepichenko taught us to use what kind of scene and what kind of scene to use, what length of lens to use, no technique is yyds, so as to maximize the impact, such a film has Breathing and...

3.5 From war to religion. Three Judas were stunned by Christ's gaze, and two attempted to prove their innocence. Finally, the theme is pulled back to anti-war in the scream of Judas's pain. The shots are beautiful and accurate, trying to extract power from static situations. The appearance of Sotnikov, who symbolizes Christ, is like a slow zoom-in, from which you can see the rhythm of the director's technique. It's a pity that non-believers like me can't be deeply...

Russia exhibition is the biggest bright. 4.5/5. Shepichenko's own posthumous works, which were not screened together with his husband's "Go See Yourself", probably belonged to the tenderness of the curator...Using oppressive close-ups and sound effects, no, using bullets, snow, branches , charcoal fire, even the face of others, sculpting the face of a saint, the sudden light when praying in the middle of the night, just like Bergman's technique, the secret of divinity resides in a face of...

Four point five. The beauty of this lens is oriental. I think Larissa created a barren lens aesthetic. It is extremely peaceful and violent; meaning seems to be scattered throughout, but because of the peaceful and violent conflict of the image layers, it has long since disappeared with the snow, the lost focus, the violent brushing of the branches, and the swaying and outstretching towards the camera. To zoom in is to enter the void of the universe. The essence is here. The essence of...

The images of the two characters are very good, and the scene is particularly impressive. The gallows are too high for the little girl to reach. The German officer is very considerate and takes a box as a footrest and helps her to step on it. Carefully adjusting the noose to the best position... that's...

A great film based on Bekov's mediocre novel, which "sublimates" a vulgar political sermon into a Christian dirge. Schnittke...

Reminiscent of the film The Great Phantom, it focuses on depicting the hearts of the characters and their relationships. The front is good, but it still feels like it's over too...

Maybe only the Russians have the position to take the anti-German Red Army soldiers as Jesus. The snow is as hard as the desert, and when you lean on it, your head will stick to a tree! Judas' final loneliness and despair was shocking. The Russian traitor turned to the Stalker crew and it was still the same...

There is a question on Zhihu that impressed me a lot. I asked what would happen if the Soviet Union filmed "Saving Private Ryan". There was a comment at the bottom. It had already been filmed, and it was called "Ivan's Childhood". If you ask what would happen if the Soviets made "1917", you can probably answer...

#Russian Collectible Film Festival 2021# The restored version, because it is real, it is heartbreaking. The play has a high degree of solid completion, shocking and terrifying. It won the Golden Bear Award at the 1977 Berlin Film Festival. It is a World War II anti-fascist film with a strong religious meaning. The climax of the final gallows is like Jesus being nailed to the cross. When Good Friday coincides with the death day of the martyrs, when the Nazi magic cave becomes the ultimate...
