    I have gathered together "Never Lost", "Youth Nezha", "What Time Are You Over There", "The Overpass is Missing", and "A Cloud in the Sky". Love can be loved at first sight and disappear for a lifetime. Whether loved ones love or not, deep or not deep, they have to last their whole lives and linger around themselves. Xiaokang has changed from a troubled teenager to a watch seller to an AV male protagonist. In addition to thanking Cai Mingliang, he also has his parents, girls who have passed by,...

    I like it very much, that kind of loneliness resonates a lot. This film takes the element of "time" as the matrix, and explores the resonance of three people's loneliness. Wall clocks, watches, Ferris wheels, subways, all of them imply the omnipresence of "time", I set the clocks all over the world to the moment on your side, pretending to be with you, am I right? The loneliness will be less, and the thoughts of you will be less? The ending is a big compliment, slightly surreal, the reversal of...

    90/100, a very typical time-image, directly depicting time with a long and silent lens, the transcendent loneliness flows in the image, solidified into a river, the sense of alienation maintained from beginning to end is also forcing you to think, from clocks and watches. →Waterwheel →Ferris Wheel, all of them are undoubtedly creating that sense of flow, and the theme of "time difference" mentioned from the beginning of construction gives the concept of time to the meaning of time and space,...

    Cai Mingliang, who is dedicated to depicting loneliness with images, found a new entry point in [What time is there on your side]. On the one hand, each character is isolated in space by lighting and scheduling, and on the other hand, the image of "time" sneaks into the picture, separating the characters more thoroughly. The loneliness of modern people is understood as the difference in time. Slowing down the watch blocks the light, and the dead ghosts can still only wander in foreign places....

    or medium. Put desire into a symbol or space, then this symbol is scattered and gathered by life, space and space are connected, and finally experience and think about the whole of life in a plain and slow lens, and enter the world of images.

    It's so boring, so lonely, and I slept twice in the middle. Ye Tong was not recognized. But I like the ending very much. There are metaphors. The appearance of Miao Tian is as surprising as the surreal pictures in Jia Zhangke's "The Three...
