    The first Roy Anderson I watched, Nordic-style cold humor, staged performances with fixed camera positions and long shots (it seems that only a few places have moved), and bar scenes that constantly change angles. The beginning is very fresh and then a little boring, but fortunately, the moving house and the sky plane make people reverie, and those who are content are always happy. Beijing Film Festival...

    "Be content, living man, in that warm and comfortable bed, before the icy winds of the Lethe lash your fleeing feet." Cold tones, cold faces, cold plots, cold humor. Northern Europe is so...

    Many passages are very moving, such as the wedding in the dream, such as singing in the bathtub. Just like "Silence of the Birds" and "Singing from the Second Floor", the pursuit of composition in the whole film is almost extreme. Every frame is very painterly, and if you pause for a moment, it looks like Edward Hope. Roy Anderson is literally a painter among...

    Actually tmd appeared luck! move! mirror! head! can you believe it? ! This is Roy Anderson! What a surprise! ; "Rejoice, you are still alive and lying on a warm and comfortable bed"; in the middle of the trial, a beer is brought in, "Then go to the electric chair~", it is too much; "Spending so much time on treatment, trying to make It's pointless to be happy one after another, it's pointless, it can't be done, I don't do that anymore, now I just prescribe medicine, the more the better, that's...

    The point is not about the story, but about the feeling. Of course you want something transcendent, but you are still familiar with the hints, the context, or you will suddenly be enlightened. However, there is nothing wrong with this now, because life is like this, and it may be impatient to watch it if it is a little ridiculous. Like stagnant water, dull pain, about to or already exuding a rancid...

    Call no man happy until he's dead

    The splicing of every piece of life is seamless. There are always a few moments in the unmemorable life of a small person, where bitterness and humor are condensed, and most importantly, truth, without anyone to please or hate.

    Is this Sweden? Exactly like the Eastern European countries under...

    Flowing color film

    At the beginning of the film, I noticed the strange light in the room, no strong light, no dark corners, and the man was lying on the bed. Can't help but think of Jeff Wall. But the Canadian's work is far less clean than this Roy Andersson -- it's really clean -- the lighting, the scenes, the...

You, the Living quotes

  • Anna: Forgive those who only think of themselves. Forgive those who are greedy and cheap. And those who deceive and cheat or grow rich by paying miserable wages. Dear lord, forgive them. Forgive them. And Lord, forgive those who humiliate and desecrate. Forgive those who torture and kill. Forgive those who bomb and destroy cities and villages. Forgive those who are dishonest, those who lie and are false. Forgive governments who withhold the truth from the people. Dear Lord, forgive them. Forgive those who are heartless, merciless, and quick to pass judgment. Please Lord, forgive them. Forgive courts that pass sentences which are too harsh or convict the innocent. Forgive them.

    The minister: Anna... We have to close and lock up now.

    Anna: Forgive newspapers and TV channels that mislead. That distract attention from that which is important. Dear Lord, forgive them.

    The minister: There now, Anna. We have to close and lock up now.

    Anna: Dear Lord, forgive them. Forgive them.
