It's a world where no freaks can survive

Why are the last few seasons of The Big Bang Theory so bad?

Because the characters in it are no longer freaks, they all become normal people around you who get married and have children. For the audience, or for the general public, their screen meaning is gone, so the theme has become a warm family scene comedy, and it's no wonder that such a series doesn't go downhill.

Whether it's "Favorite Starry Sky" or "Gate of Eternity", they all try to interpret the freak Van Gogh into a...

"The sun burns too fast in the sky of Naar"

The director may be aware of loneliness, but he dare not act lonely (Charlie Kaufman expresses his anger). Wang Bo, who died before his death, wrote cruelly: “Guaranteed mountain is difficult to pass, and those who have lost their way; meet by the water, they are all guests from other countries.” (Wang Bo, Preface to the Pavilion of the King of Teng).

But loneliness is actually a false proposition. First of all, loneliness is not isolated. It is...

Van Gogh: At the gate of eternity, it belongs to the artist's perseverance

I’m going to talk to you about a "biographical" movie, and this time there is a film nominated for the Oscar "male protagonist".

This one tells the story of the great artist "Van Gogh", "Van Gogh: At the Gate of Eternity", and last year's "Van Gogh: The Mystery of Starry Night", it took six years to use 60,000 hand-painted oil paintings. Completion, and different from the mystery of the starry night, "At the Gate of Eternity" is completed with a "realistic" and first-person main...

A portrait of the painter [From Li Zongheng Film Critic]

I have been looking forward to it for a long time and finally watched it.

Julian Schnabel has filmed a painter-themed film with the same identity as his own since his debut in the film, the work that commemorates Basquiat. Coupled with the famous "Diving Bell and Butterflies" and "When the Night Comes" starring JaVale Baden, his characteristics as a "character painter" film writer have become more and more distinct. He once said that he was a painter first and then a director. He also...

[Film Review] At Eternity's Gate (2018) 7.4/10

Painter to painter, maverick artist Julian Schnabel's 5th feature, is a spate of stream-of-consciousness flows attempting to reify the world seen through Vincent Van Gogh's eyes, played by Willem Dafoe, who possesses a high-fidelity gauntness albeit is far on the wrong side of Van Gogh's real age.

In AT ETERNITY'S GATE, Schnabel emulates a Malickian freewheeling visual fluidity to...

Gauguin and Van Gogh take a piss in the wild, saying that Impressionism is out of date. Subverting the traditional genre, it seems as common as eating and drinking. Some people are only asked to draw flowers and leaves, but never thought to draw tree roots. Flowers will always wither, but his paintings are the gates of eternity, which can keep the people in the paintings forever young. Not being able to get fifty francs to keep the maid, she had to cut off her ear and send it to the prostitute....

Perhaps like the (daringly) repainting of Van Gogh's painting in the movie, this is exactly what a director sees as the genius of Van Gogh. He is trapped in hallucinations, but has a discerning eye; he is impersonal, but he reciprocates; he is fragile and sensitive, but full of passion; he is poor, but rich in heart. He is willful and irritable, and will cut his ears for friends to leave; he loves nature, and suicide is not his style (the director adopts the theory of being mistakenly killed by...

Finally, it is not a running account biopic. It mainly talks about Van Gogh's pastoral sketching time after arriving in Arles and his mental state in the final stage of his life: loneliness, fanaticism, hallucinations... "A little bit of madness is the best art." Arles saw the signs "Van Gogh painted XXX here" all the way along the way, and then saw that Van Gogh in the film was yelled and beaten by everyone, and no one appreciated him all his life, it was really distressing. This film made Van...

In fact, it's a postcard movie. It doesn't matter that every picture can be enlarged and hung on the wall. . . . All kinds of golden yellow flashes to the optic nerve orgasm, visual Porn without sexual...

Unlike previous Van Gogh films, this film aims to experience the painter's sensory world and inner world. In addition, it can be linked with "Love Van...
