      Be Kind Rewind--Son of Rambow and Be Kind Rewind

      Two films are about making films myself; the other two are about realizing my dreams. Be Kind Rewind is for adults, while Son of Rambow is a childhood fantasy. I prefer Son of Rambow. because I had the same childhood but grew up with less and less imagination. When I was a child, with my younger brother, one held a broom and acted as a knife as Guan Gong, and the other held a clothes-drying fork and acted as a silver gun as...

      low definition person


      When I watched "Be Kind Rewind", I was filled with emotion. First of all, I thought of a lot of original VHS video tapes and LDs at home. In the era of high-definition broadcasting, they suddenly became outdated products, and I didn't count the menacing Blu-ray discs. , is slowly phasing out DVDs, abandoning me as a low-definition person.

      Unexpectedly, I rewinded myself, and went back to the high school years when I was crazy about movies. Following my seniors, I stumbled upon a...

        At the end of the movie, a documentary with a warm heart was released, and then I started from this young age. Inside and outside the building is a crowd of people applauding and cheering
        Even if these warmth can't save the end of the world, I would still like to enjoy them before the destruction of the...

      all because of the love of movies

      "Ace Producer" or "Careful Rewind", to be honest I watched it for director Michel Gondry's name, this film is not like his previous work "Eternal Sunshine of a Beautiful Mind", so Filled with tormenting love stories and romance to the core, this is an oddly shaped, quirky, and endearing comedy.
          
          Some people say that this film is to show that Hollywood is nothing to do; some people feel that it is a complaint that the current era is progressing too fast. Possibly, but I think...

      Grassroots Carnival, Charming Fat Jack - Motivational Film of Shanzhai

      This is undoubtedly an inspirational film that advertises grass-roots dreams like "Farmer Astronaut". Although the two films seem to take a slightly different route, the latter is more touching, and this film is under the leadership of Fat Jack, Obviously can only follow the model of "Tropical Thunder". When shanzhai became a derogatory term, Michel Gondry seemed to use this film to prove that shanzhai can also go from a derogatory term to a positive one. Whether it is a dream or a dreamer,...
