      It's a short review

      Candy is actually taboo, a broken movie is the most complete movie, and a complete movie is the most broken movie. That's why the first hour has an extremely large amount of "idle" footage and logically fragmented dialogue and passages (like redundant random items, as a friend said), like the first time Se and Chu eat candy After seeing the "movie", this time the movie is the most beautiful. The charm of Sai and Zhu's movie on its ongoing side is weakened with the gradual...

      The movie is alchemy, candy and adventure

      Rivett made a story similar to Hitchcock's "Rear Window", except that the protagonist of the audience has changed from a lame man to two lively and romantic women, and the viewing experience is also a projection of male desire. Transform into a surreal dream. At the beginning of the film, there is a chase scene similar to "Vertigo", but the gender of the chaser is changed from a man chasing a woman to a woman chasing a woman. This fragment is confusing: Why didn't Julie...

      Fantasy and Reality in "The Voyage of Selena and Jolie"

      Text / Gucheng "The Voyage of Selena and Julie", unsurprisingly, took me into the video journey of Miaoman, the wonderful hallucinatory impression could not disappear from the brain for a long time, and the color of light and shadow seemed to settle in the memory. In the texture, it becomes a frightening and intoxicating hallucination. A movie that tempts people to stay up all night has already succeeded. I call it "wonderful", which originates from a wonderful viewing experience,...

      voyeur

      A dream within a dream, a play within a play, Jacques Levitt's farthest work in film form. The two strangers, Celine the magician and Julie the librarian, are impressive in their game-like chase at the beginning of the film and the way they meet. The relationship between the two in the first half of the film is presented by pasting clips, even if it is continuous in time, but due to the skipping of clips and the omission of information, the audience has a feeling similar to peeping. After...

      broken memory

      Mimicking the opening of Hitchcock's Psycho, a plethora of signs and symbols, a wobbly telephoto lens that enhances its meaningless nature

      The trivial life of the two female protagonists inserts broken language in a state of freedom, in contrast to the fictional dramatized love in the second half

      Satisfying the male gaze and voyeuristic desire, at the same time echoes the later interspersed teasing and...

      Rivette is really not my thing, the dialogue is too empty, and I don't feel bad after reading some interpretation articles. It took more than 3 hours to be a...

      The creative thinking exploration of fantasy and reality, Rivette constantly breaks the narrative space fault like a magician, creating "pain" for the audience (cc...

      9.5/10. ①The first half is about the encounter between the two heroines, the deepening of their friendship, and their respective lives; the second half is about their magical experience in a haunted house after sharing magic candy, and the rescue of the little girl in the haunted house. ②It is full of mysterious atmosphere. The first half of this mystery comes from the unpredictable, and the second half comes from the blurring of reality and virtual/surreal. De-targeted narrative (create a...

      The fantasy world of Jacques Rivette. Playful, mysterious, spooky, and casual, using the characteristics of the new wave to create a magical wonderland. The switching between characters is very natural, and the wonderful ending wraps the whole story in a...
