    Berg's gray-blue eyes matched with his extremely handsome facial features, playing an extremely feminine, twisted and morbid evildoer. He kissed Loli, and Loli smiled at him innocently. Hearing that Loli was sick, he hurriedly put on his clothes and went barefoot to see her, guilty and timid to call her name, oh, how innocent, but knowingly asked, she straightened up, her face darkened, and no longer had the luster , walked to the corner, remained silent, the next scene was her hanging feet......

    Well, I admit the fifth star is for Turing's...

    Visconti's extremely heavy work explores the scars left by the Nazis on individuals and nations. At that time, the people's morbid worship of power gave birth to the Nazis, and the Nazis reacted to human nature, alienating and degrading them. There are so many characters, two and a half hours seem rushed, and many details are too obscure. I personally think it would be better to shoot for more than three...

    Now the Nazi reflection film is really too healthy. This is the terminally ill art of the underworld. Personal morality is abandoned, old sins are forgiven by new decrees; old institutions must be dismantled, and family members fight against each other. Divine terror descends, and the gravitational pull of statism removes humanity. The hollow man revels and blooms beautifully masculine flowers. No matter how you look at it, it is the follow-up to the magic...

    Subtitles are a big problem, thankfully the dubbing is in English. This movie really shows Berg's beauty in all aspects, can't believe he is so bad (though there are not many good people in the whole movie). But the film is the essence of the Third Reich....

    Charlotte Rampling is noble and sad. The gloomy blue in Helmet Berger's eyes is evil and seductive. He is an actor born for this kind of desperate character. It seems to be a sense of morality caused by aesthetics. I always think that the Nazi military uniform is full of ritual beauty and full of sexy. Visconti is a person who is obsessed with despair, obsessed with taboos, and obsessed with decadence, and I may be even more obsessed than...

    Visconti's features are obvious. Like the panther, the political and historical background is only the reason for the changes, not the core. The core is to show the changes in the family's historical torrents and personal struggles. It should be a hint of the Krupp family. It is unique in Italian to play this subject. There is no one but Italy who can photograph Nazi subjects so erotically. I didn't expect it to be Visconti's work. I'm so disappointed. Half of the credit is the subtitle...

    Extremely beautiful (it's self-evident in the comments that it is more shocking than "Saro"), but perhaps more suspicious than "Saro". A certain tendency towards shaky foundations has clearly been amplified from La terra trema to Il gattopardo to the present. The part where the stormtroopers reveled and then unknowingly everyone sang in unison was terrible...

    Gorgeous, decadent, classical and lewd, brightening, zooming, blooming flowers of...

    Personal ambitions, desires, and emotions are worthless under the pressure of power; the SA mutiny and the wedding poisoning scene are beautiful; Visconti's preference for Berg can be seen, and the shots given to him are extraordinarily meticulous and calm (although I prefer...

The Damned quotes

  • Sophie Von Essenbeck: It's not a joke. Enormous interests are at stake, and Martin thinks...

    Konstantin Von Essenbeck: As far as I know, it's the first time Martin ever used his head to think!

  • Sophie Von Essenbeck: Don't fool yourself, however, Elizabeth. Don't dream of coming back one day to find a Germany which was so dear to your heart. It's finished, that Germany, forever. There will be no other Germany but this one, and you will not be able to escape it for it will spread before you know it all over Europe and everywhere!
