    The narrative is loose and protracted, the characters are inexplicable, and each seems to be in a different movie. I don't like it very much. When the cave myth was told in a mysterious way, a condescending sage was preaching, and it was almost "hehe". I always feel that the whole film is full of the main theme of political propaganda. I don't know how the original novel is, but the adaptation of this work is really...

    Forty years ago, a 30-year-old member of the Italian Communist Party used the best film lens to shoot a story about a fascist party member. There are several wonderful buildings in the story, and the two most beautiful women in the world. I love this...

    The photography is really too coquettish. The zooming and zooming lens makes people feel numb, and the montage can not be more appropriate. Love, friendship, family, childhood classes, murder and marriage are mixed, Bertolucci's political presentation is always the soul. The feeling of depression of same-sex desire turned out to be an undercurrent that determines the life of the protagonist. The external images of the two key characters are surprisingly...

    A collective unconscious madness. The recognition of the collectivist life and the simple concept of happiness, and the fear of losing them if they are possible, enables people to remain obedient and silent, tolerate a society based on lies, and be both victims and supporters. Although it refers directly to fascism, it seems to insinuate any political power. Metaphors are everywhere, photography is superb, Lao Bei’s best...

    I didn't pay attention to politics or assassinations at all. I just kept staring at JLT's long eyelashes. Dominique Sanda and Stefania Sandrelli are so...

    murderer! He killed a political prisoner! He is a gay,...

    Almost perfect sound, light and tone, as well as a description of the family social blueprint full of metaphors and mapping. In addition, Laki's orientation and sense of security must be the topic of ancient...

    The theme is to ask ordinary people’s responsibilities in the era of autocracy, can they be a fool for "self-safety"? The protagonist couldn't even do bad things well in 1938, but he was very active in betraying his colleagues after the war. In contrast, his subordinates are more dedicated. The lines of the fiancée’s house are very expressive. The dialogue schedule in the broadcast room and in front of the back kitchen of a Chinese restaurant is similar, with a lively background behind it. The...

    It's almost perfect. It would be more interesting to learn more about the background of the times. Several time periods are edited together, and the photography is beautiful. Trignant was handsome when he was...

    Back then, Bertolucci was very skillful in mirroring, and the lens was as smooth as a serpentine snake, sometimes with his head up and looking down, and sometimes patrolling around. It was noted that there were a lot of deep-field shots that made the sense of space stronger. However, some scene transitions always leave me unconscious, and the protagonist’s inner digging is somewhat of a stream of consciousness, and it is difficult to concentrate when watching. Since Bertolucci always combines...
