    With the increase of attention and curiosity about the beautiful heroine, the film gradually makes us realize how this man who believes that he has a moral bottom line is defeated! There is no love between the two, just a game full of ambiguous and erotic. In the two times that the male protagonist wanted the most lingering tenderness and thought he was sure of it, he turned back in disappointment, and the irony is that the female protagonist refused without any...

    The translation is not good, I didn't understand it, because it is a film from the 1970s, the evaluation is naturally improved. As a French new wave film, it should be...

    Literary men are self-righteous, and bold women embrace all rivers. At the end of the tortuous struggle of literary and artistic directors, they are easily passed. Haydée Politoff is...

    "Silence and loneliness are not my choice, but are imposed by the outside world or nature." However, due to our self-esteem, we are keen to take subtlety as our own brand, and expand our moral concepts and behavioral codes based on this. Therefore, he said that "going with the flow is the most difficult", what is "natural"? There is only desire. However, under the clash of complex concepts and the more chaotic inner struggle, people often act like paranoiacs that cannot be explained by...

    A man wants to possess a woman, but when he possesses this woman with an open private life, it becomes a woman's collection at the same time. Is it the satisfaction of possessiveness or the fall of moral lightness? The male protagonist has been struggling, the open woman is very low, and the man who is fascinated by her is also so. It’s hard for people to bear. Life is the ebb and flow of satisfaction and...

    The bright and warm light, bright and harmonious colors, the picture is very beautiful, especially the shots of the water waves and the coast, it is really beautiful. However, those dumb and metaphysical narrations are used too much, not to the extent of creating alienation effects, but to seriously weaken the sense of cinema. In addition, I don't know whether it was Bresson that Rohmer intended to learn from or the professional ability of the actors. The performance of the whole film is very...

    The puppet realizes that he is a puppet, a part of the game - if this is the concept of the climax to the final part in Hollywood movies, but in "The Collector", the hero Adrian is a self-disciplined, knowledge-based Rong, a man with "enlightenment", his conscious resistance is just the beginning of everything. In his game with Daniel and Heidi, anyone can feel complacent as the master of the game, but he is the only one who realizes that the will to operate the game is also limited: there is...

    Bright sunshine in the French countryside

    I bought the movie tickets for this festival two weeks ago. Eric Rohmer was a director of the French New Wave period, and the "The Collector" I watched was part of the "Six Moral Tales" series. The so-called "collector" is the male protagonist's contempt for her, saying that she is a slut who...

    Morality is the hidden transcendence

    I like the state of people in Hou Mai's movies. Without exception, they are all lonely, the mind keeps producing secretive activities, and there are lines. Yes. That is a philosophy of the director itself, and the director is not a skill. Home, he must follow the path of a philosopher.


    In the...

The Collector quotes

  • Haydée: I exploit. It can be anything, the main thing is for me to get something.

  • Adrien: We are always someone else's slave. I find less dishonor in living at a friend's house, than in being paid by the State. Today, most people do useless work. Three quarters of all activities are parasitic. I'm not a parasite, the bureaucrats, the technicians are.
