    On the surface, it discusses the cost of eavesdropping on privacy, but inside, it falls into the endless abyss of resistance between reality and fantasy; when the flashbacks no longer appear, those voices haunt Kaur like a nightmare. Dialogue, until the end, the loneliness conveyed by the saxophone floods the cramped room, will that bug be in the instrument? The answer is...

    This is Coppola's experimental film. The editing and photography have maintained a consistent level. The use of sound effects to create suspense and reflect the psychology of the characters is still very superb. The motivation of the characters is not convincing enough, and the final ending is very "film noir". , also tricked the audience to the end as much as the truth—a film about the life and spiritual crisis of a middle-aged...

    Another Palme d'Or from Coppola, American Story, European flavor. The film was released on the eve of Nixon's resignation due to the Watergate scandal, which was very fitting at the...

    The God's perspective at the beginning predicted Jesus' joke, and the ruined house at the end was like Cole's dejected state of mind. When the ambiguity of the dialogue is revealed, the sense of subversion like "Zoom in" suddenly strikes. The empty room, the intermittent jazz music, the scattered light and shadow, all are rendering Cole's alienation from the outside world. Depressed and uneasy emotions flowed in the film, and the emotions reached a climax with the plot, and then ended...

    A textbook film about the use of sound, the fame of the godfather allowed Coppola to make a film regardless of everything, and it was precisely because of this that he made such an anti-typed art film. The theme of eavesdropping also alluded to the current status of American society , the eavesdropper is also the monitored person, and the final loneliness of the protagonist is also universal. Now it seems that eavesdropping and the like are just petty troubles. And, the two old generals in the...

    It should be literally translated as "Dialogue". When eavesdropping on other people's conversations, point by point, they are quietly peeled off, peeling off the inferior security feeling of self-control. I like it very much, the details appear slowly one by one, not disordered, and do not need to be deliberately controlled. Coppola perfectly integrates the rhythm into the space, sound, and composition of the entire film. Such a film can no longer be duplicated, yes The best example of the...

    When the audience sits in the movie theater and looks at the screen, you remember, at the beginning, before the movie starts, there is a black curtain, and then the lights come on. Don't we just start with a toilet bowl and wait for what's gone to come back? It's the whole wonderful thing on the screen, not a deceptive lure to try and hide the truth - we're just watching a piece of shit, aren't...
