    Hey, I saw my dad in this movie. When I was a kid, he sold fruit for 16 years and beat my mom a lot. Even now, he still drinks every...

    The 18th director Fassbender, although he already has a certain understanding of Fassbender's style, but marveling at the perspective and details of this film makes the atmosphere extremely depressing. The old law's lens allows each supporting character to have a "protagonist lens" to torture and torture Hans. Although the sister who has seen through everything is the eye of God, "as long as he wills, he will not die", and he has not rescued him from his demise. The interrogation schedule at...

    Simple and somber style: a man in a very everyday atmosphere, day in and day out, overwhelmed by the abandonment of others. The trauma of the war, the contempt of his mother, the infidelity of his wife, the departure of his true love, and the indifference of others are all pushing him to despair step by step. It seems that in his life, apart from the memory of true love, there is only pain that gradually accumulates in pallor and goes hand in hand. The ending is a deeper irony: Even after he...

    I didn't realize the despair and helplessness of the male lead until the day when he went to the window and ignored him. He was despised and deceived by his family. His career was shamefully lost. His only remaining self-esteem may be in the backyard when he was selling fruit. Anna's dress is remarkably similar to Lana Turner's in [Spring Breeze, Autumn Rain]. Constrained composition and high-speed camera shake. The music in Fassbender's film is the howl of a life full of suffering - thorough...

    The whole film is more about the sadness of the times. They go abroad to fight, foreign workers, and the native German men are like mollusks with snail shells. They are sensitive, decadent, and slow, but they don’t need to worry too much about material things. They are a little careful, but not Great evil, a little ambition, but not recognized by the family, can do, only a middle-class standard, to achieve is decent, not to be...

    A bit like Aki in style. The strong dramatic tone of the actors' gestures creates a strong and depressing sense of falsehood. Narratively, the layers are peeled off like petals, and the heart is dark. Fassbender can always skillfully weave sociopoliticality with personal...

    Each of us also has a Four Seasons Merchant in our heart

    The Four Seasons Merchant is an early feature film directed by Fa Da. It is still full of elements of the stage play in terms of form, and it expresses the metaphor of the character's situation in some compositions. Alienation is also one of the very important elements of this film. From the...

    Talk about some details

    In Hans's life, three women had a great influence on him, and together they formed the trajectory of his life:

    1. Mother: Serious and cold-hearted, the patriarch of the family, the almighty Lafayette. When Hans came back from the army, he accused him of embarrassing himself; he rejected his idea of...
