    #SFF, Solid 7, so far the best director work of Ralph Fiennes. Although the interstitial memory of changing the color tone and the use of similar shapes to switch screens are somewhat mediocre, the main line of the story and the main character work well. The reins around a ruthless rebel's neck were strangled too tightly and broke free. This movie uses a ballet dancer who can act as the protagonist, and the language used by historical figures is probably the two most adore of this movie. So...

    #HKIFF Samsung and a half. Reminiscent of "Cold War", but cut from the perspective of individual choice, with the universality of depicting a misfit alternative. Ballet is also pretty...

    The lens photography is very good, and it feels like a lens shot alternately between film and digital high-definition. The editing of the three lines was a bit messy, and the shot was cut without warning, but there was no connection. The male protagonist is not the kind of handsome for the public aesthetic, but it is very attractive, the more he looks, the more pleasing to the eye. The guys and girls who dance ballet are so beautiful~ and the dew-pointed German little brother, tut tut... 2019...

    The second session of the Hong Kong Film Festival. The rebellious white crow, the talented ballerina, the Soviet thirsting for freedom. A collection of dance, music, sculpture, fine art, elegant classical art awards! Nureyev's personality is really a bit like the supporting actor in it, who is also the top Ukrainian ballet dancer Sergei Polunin who was born in the former Soviet Union! Unfortunately, the story lacks too much surprise, and the second half of the story suddenly becomes very...

    18LFF/ Smooth, elegant, charming, and seamless. The photography and scheduling are extremely excellent and precise, which is the surprise of this London Film Festival. The grandmother of the audience said that she had watched Rudolph's performance in the 1970s. When she said this, her eyes were full of light, maybe This is the power of...

    The camera and performance are amazing. I hope that, like last year's Lady Bird, it will become an Oscar blast out of the London Film Festival. After the screening, many aunts in Q&A had watched Nureyev's London show 40 years ago, which was...

    A "treason" incident that was not planned in advance was very heartbreaking for me who fell into the maze of nostalgia; Adele played a role that was almost the opposite of blue and performed very well; I think the protagonist’s psychological struggle can be more powerful Yes, the screenwriter owes a little, it's a pity, and the director's expression is relatively...

    Despite being the screenwriter of David Hare, I still want to say: Go to see "White Night", go to Mikhail Baryshnikov's dance, watch him spin 11 times on his...

    Three and a half. Fiennes directed non-English works, a British actor who was fascinated by Russian culture, and was fascinating to show the little bourgeois style of Paris in the...

The White Crow quotes

  • Rudolf Nureyev: I can live anywhere. Remember, I was born on a train. I feel I will never return to my country. But I may never be happy in yours.

  • [First Lines - dialogue entirely in Russian with English subtitles]

    Interrogator: You knew.

    Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: No.

    Interrogator: You knew what he was planning to do.

    Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: No.

    Interrogator: You're saying he never spoke of defection?

    Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: The subject never came up.

    Interrogator: He never spoke of it?

    Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: Never.

    Interrogator: This is an attack on the Soviet Union.

    Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: No, It's about dance.

    Interrogator: Dance?

    Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: He knows nothing about politics. He's gone to the West because there he can dance.

    Interrogator: He could dance here.

    Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: Yes, but... I think it's likely he had an explosion of character. That's who he is.
