Aquarius

Independent and autonomous.

Aunt Clara, a seventy-year-old girl, is still beautiful. Seeing the cupboard brings back memories of having sex with your partner when you were young.

Clara's husband said, "I love her, and even though it was a low point in my life, we still got through it together, the saddest time."

My husband passed away for 17 years.

This apartment, Aquarius, holds memories of my past years. My children are grown and married, my...

"Aquarius": She lives in an apartment

(Written by Zhi Ning on January 10, 2017
 
        ) The narration and photography of the Brazilian film "Aquarius" give people the appearance of wandering around at will, but in fact the shape is scattered but the spirit is not scattered. The director and screenwriter of the film Little Kleber Mendoza, a film critic, probably because of the large number of films he has read, in many classic films in the past, Mendoza has found a suitable shooting method to express his works. He seems...

Just because it's an Aquarius - this Aquarius is not that Aquarius

Before I watched the film, I always thought it was a movie about constellations. At first I thought it was a story about an Aquarius, but then the whole plot developed a little bit insinuating.

Clara is a Brazilian female writer. At the beginning, her family was holding a birthday party, and her grandchildren enthusiastically recited poems to bless her. Everyone is very happy. Then the camera cuts to, Clara gets up the next morning and goes to the beach for a swim. After...

May I be the same when I grow old, as stubborn as a child and an old lady.

When I downloaded this movie on the movie website, it was purely for the title, "Aquarius". Because I am also an Aquarius, I was preconceived and had to watch it before downloading it. I have saved it on the PAD for a long time. Today, in my spare time, I turned it out and took a closer look, only to find that the name of the building is Aquarius.

The lengthy and slow rhythm of the film caused me to not watch it very seriously. I went to wash a fruit and remove a yogurt from time to...

The end of life is music

The opening and closing credits of the film are the sound of the waves, and I thought it was a very poetic and romantic movie. But there is no romance here, with the real estate agent's giant hand looming over the later life of a Brazilian female intellectual who wants a poetic inhabitation in a seaside apartment. A missing breast, the drain pipe on the beach, the termites upstairs, the white eyes of my daughter, the deceased person in the thick old photos. There is no love that transcends...

Little Kleber Mendoza spent more than ten years cultivating the theme of Recife, and finally filmed this show showing a master atmosphere. The sound is still important in the film (very subjective usage), the big heroine writes wonderfully, using family life and private memory to resolve the very dramatic conflict of demolition (really advanced drama), and at some moments also Made for a tense thriller atmosphere, somewhat like a hybrid of Haneke and Puyo. The beginning of 1980 and the memories...

Very boring, lots of irrelevant characters and plot, the ending seems powerful but...

[Brazil] The memories carried between the buildings include past history, music, personnel and sex; the moth-eaten wood and mottled brick walls piece together all the things Clara once lived. "Aquarius" is her territory and kingdom. Even if she is in a sinister trap and conspiracy, she must resist to the death; in the face of the complicated world, she must maintain her voice. Although it is full of perspective and the themes involved are very serious, it is also a story of a middle-aged woman...

It is a home and a home, where memories and emotions are carried, and she has the right to choose where to live. But it is not just real estate hegemony. The retirement life of independent women reflects a series of social problems. The director's aesthetics, the use of interior space and the use of music are all great. Personally, I can especially empathize with the...
