    What to save you Andrei Tarkovsky. The staged performance, the language of the camera is obviously asking for something. The beginning is great, in the reflection of life, there is also the question of modern civilization. In the end, it was a maze of endless sorrow, entanglement, and no exit. I especially wanted to say: how to watch Tarkovsky's movies, it would be better to have subtitles synchronously analyzed. In the end it was hope and love, which Ta said was dedicated to his...

    The film was shot on the island of Faroe, where Bergman lives. Nykvist's photography is picturesque. There are many shocking moments, such as Alex leaning over the model of the villa like a god, or in the boy's room, the wind blows the curtains, and the light gradually brightens and dims. That last robe with tai chi printed on it is kind of...

    A film that changed my mind about Tarkovsky. I saw Bergman's shadow, but the difference is that Laota uses the lens to give objects/materials a very unique appearance and meaning, light and heavy, soft and hard, light and dark. And, in the interrogation of life and death, I saw lust. So I finally fell in love with the old tower, which I thought I could not see for ten thousand...

    OMG... I was very moved to think that this was the last film Laota made when he knew that he was going to die, as if every scene and every object in it had an extra meaning; and he was still a guest in Sweden. In the interior scene, Bergman's feeling is ready to come out, and the slow and elegant movement of the characters is Bresson's mark: the last old tower still remembers the idol in his heart. Although I was still confused for a while, I was very...

    Philosophy enables us to see the sins of human beings, and religion enables us to find the place of salvation for the soul. The wilderness by the sea is green and grassy, ​​and the civilization of the city is decaying and gloomy. Human ambitions and selfish desires give birth to evil wars, and individual despair and panic in the sense of apocalypse. All the wisdom, literature, art and philosophy possessed by human beings are powerless in the face of violent war. Was Lars von Trier's...

    In Bergman's Faroe Island, and Bergman's photographer, Lao Tower made the film with the last force of his life. In the beginning of a long-shot dialogue, everyone holds hope until death, and everyone believes that it will become a reality. The accusation gradually became self-talk: human beings more savage than savages, civilization built on overthrow and destruction, use of inventions as weapons. And when nature is manicured into a garden, when the original beauty of man is retouched,...

    The last old tower. The caption at the end of the film reads "This film is dedicated to my son with hope and confidence." The child has always been a symbol of hope in Ta's films. This is the last motto he left behind with a deep sense of salvation and suffering. And the way of salvation he thinks combines Christianity and oriental reincarnation. "In the beginning there was the Tao," the Tao is Jesus, or the Tao is the rule that governs everything. In the apocalypse where technology erodes the...

    I don't like it. After reading it, I feel very uncomfortable and want to vomit. The Faroe Islands are beautiful. The Passion of Matthew at the end is well...

    It's a movie that is bound to happen in a lifetime. When I saw the stills of burning the house a few years ago, I didn't know Tarkovsky, and I couldn't understand the Golden Pavilion. However, on this day last week, I met a tree by the sea, independent and green, rooted in warm brown rocks, at that moment I was like "waiting for my husband who returned from the war on the platform of the railway station", it was It touches life more closely and finely than now. Going back to this little tree, I...
