    Unfolding in dazzling fragments, this compound eye image reflects both the anxiety of media coverage and Welles' hopeless boastfulness. He inherited the use of mirrors in "Miss Shanghai", fissioning himself through the eyes of others to form crystal-images. By rubbing the same character in different colors, Wells and Andy Warhol came together in different...

    It is not Orson Welles that is worshipped, it is the image that is worshiped. The original appearance of the film is not as important as the truth in the story. Images are fragments, uncut and finely carved, images may even be "wrong", but images are always the...

    Like Godard's filming "Goodbye Language", it is also a stream of consciousness, a collection of thinking. The shots are too dense and fragmented, and the narrative structure is so advanced that you can't see the whole picture until later. Looking very tired. I fell asleep in the fleshly lust for the little male...

    Genius is genius. A real film revolution has already begun to take shape from that "Fake". The dusty excavation of "The Other Side of the Wind" has defended the art of film and Wells' final dignity. The future of film still has infinite...

    I don’t really understand much about the plot. It’s probably Orson Welles’ life epilogue and his full understanding of the film itself and the industry; the double estrangement between the play and the characters’ watching and being watched completely isolates the audience. No matter what dimension the screen is in, there is another reality inside the screen, facing the outside world. The director is contradictory and even painful, while the actor is completely attacked by the...

    The nightclub chase scene in the film is stunned. Why is it difficult to express desire by focusing on parts of the body? Relying on the experience of filming pornography, Wells can easily complete the process of creating and seeking audiences for Director Zhang, which most directors can't make with all their efforts. Is it really always painful? How was Fassbender's Holy Prostitute filmed? It's too painful to wander around in chaos, the other side of the wind is destined to be...

    The correct order is to watch this film first and then watch "Be Loved After Death". The people who arrange the film in Venice are idiots. If I hadn't done a good job of taking notes... Every shot wants to be remembered in the history of the film, and you can imagine how he edited it. torment. I understand the pain of Orson Welles: I hope all human beings will know about my genius & this time I will not allow myself a little bit of...

    I don’t dare to comment on the master’s posthumous works. The inscrutable editing makes people feel like falling into a fog. I have seen a lot of works that satirize the filmmaker circle. This kind of extreme stream of consciousness is really eye-opening. This afternoon’s show The screening also invited the editor to come on stage. On the contrary, I think the film in the film is more durable, with a strong lead yellow film...

    It's better to watch with "Be Loved After...
