Day 21 I am afraid of being alone
"A year with 365 movies is a new year"
May 22, 2018 Day 21
Title: Fear Eats the Soul
Director: Rainer Werner Fassbender / Germany
Length: 93 minutes
The movie is about a love story, but it's not a love movie.
I am afraid of being alone, so I am looking for someone to love. I am afraid of being alone because I am in love with...

When we are together, be kind to each other
The broken German and the slow pace of the film make the film look bad. But that's what characterizes this film, the exotic discomfort and slow irritability are the best experience of the lonely, miserable atmosphere of the film
The heroine of the film, Amy, is getting old and full of fat. Although the light and shadow of the whole film are bright, they are all low-saturated colors, which make the perception very depressing. (Fortunately there are only 90 minutes, otherwise it will...

Fassbender followed Douglas Sek's method of using popular melodrama as a tool to dissect social hypocrisy and contradictions in his filmmaking in the middle and late stages of his creation. Fear of familiarity is more desperate than all class, racial and social issues.
“The simpler the story, the more real it is, and the more engaged the audience will be. If art stimulates the possibility of further discussion, then we think it reaches the extreme.” Fassbender followed Douglas in the...

I watched this film, largely because I think I am a person with fear, and I think the erosion of the soul by fear is really worth watching. For love, like the couple in the film, two lonely and frightened souls get together. It feels to me like two faint points of light fused together to form a slightly stronger heart photoelectric with two colors, but still very faint. After the heroine and the hero were together, the heroine became less lonely, but I still saw her sometimes bowing her...

Emmi, a 60-year-old cleaning lady, met Ali, a 40-year-old Moroccan car mechanic, in a bar because she was sheltering from the rain. The two danced under the instigation of the crowd. Finally, Ali sent Emmi home again. They told each other at Emmi's house. The loneliness, the words are long and the nights are short.
Later, the two interacted frequently, got along sweetly, and even got married. Sons and daughters, neighbors, Emmi's colleagues, almost all of them blamed them,...

Doors, windows, railings, glass, and even the camera screen separate the people who come and go in the film from the audience and the actor. Fassbinder tells a warm and easy-to-understand love story in the language of "container people". Considering this movie could be the best "The Outsider" if it was re-released Fassbinder fulfills his promise of "Let the movie and life never be separated" in the flat narrative and honest relative movie plot. Others are hell But when we are together, at least...

People always say "but", but nothing changes; I love you more, how much, so much, I love you from here to...

Fassbender-Ozu-Aki shared a language of urban space and color. The city is like the arrangement and combination of industrial products, and the characters are mostly mechanized. The cold performance is extremely precise and accurate. How to control the temperature between people also seems to be a scientific problem. The distance needs to be calculated accurately and the person trapped in it is a lonely void under the cold exterior. The director skillfully used the combination of the zoom lens...

The technique is simple and the plot simple. Not the same Fassbender. The film focuses on the love story between the elderly and the many black expatriates who are younger. The prejudice and indifference of the people around them make them at a loss. Would the world be a better place if people could be treated as human beings? In addition, the male protagonist is the director's lover. It's a pity that his later life was worse than in the...

Ah~ I just don't like watching old movies~ But it's still very warm with Baozi: "We are so rich, I really want to buy a small piece of...
Girl in bar: Well... are you coming?
Ali: No.
Girl in bar: And why not?
Ali: Cock broken.
Emmi Kurowski: We'll be rich, Ali... and we'll buy ourselves a little piece of heaven.
Ali: Why heaven?
Emmi Kurowski: Oh, just a fancy of mine.
Emmi Kurowski: But when we're together, we must be nice to each other. Otheriwse, life's not worth living.
