      Copie conforme

      "A woman whose life has been plundered, trying to make the most of it." This is what Bonnie said about her. And she is nothing more than a portrait of many married women. In the movie, she went from trying to pretend elegance to be irritable, irritable, and finally exhausted. In the process, he (James) tried to persuade her with his philosophy of life, "there is no so-called eternity", and also tried to comfort her, but the further back, the male protagonist began to expose his life, the more...

      True and false are true

      When I saw the last empty scene, I screamed in my heart that it ended like this, aren't you kidding me? Whether the two of them are a real husband and wife, they were strangers at the beginning, but later they became more and more like husband and wife, and they couldn't tell them apart at all. I stopped and went to Baidu for a while. The film starts and ends in the dialogue between the two of them. This is the first time I have seen this kind of film, and I don't know who the director is. I...

      I love you as a loaf of bread handed

      I've never seen such a movie, quiet, calm, and enjoy. The director didn't say a word, but what he once thought about, what he never thought about and what the audience self-examined, has been scattered in long shots. Gently brushing the silky silk, that feeling is what this movie feels to me. Comfortable, so comfortable that I almost dozed off. Silently conveyed: You see, Italy is really an open-air art gallery. You see, red wine just can't have a musty smell. Even in a remote town, at five...

      BRAVO, a classic!

      Very interesting movie, rarely seen this kind of movie. Rarely speak, do not attack in life, and be timid. This movie is about the relationship between men and women (husband and wife), and I think it is the most classic movie I have ever seen, no one! First of all, these two are definitely not real couples. 1. The heroine's life status is very low, divorced with children, all kinds of hardships. Although the economic conditions are not bad, but I am afraid of loneliness and want to find a...

      Juliette Binoche's boob tour

      I know I'm being harsh, like I'm talking about Juliet's chest. However, if the original copy of the box office is not ideal, changing my name will definitely make the box office data look better. When I say this, I feel like I'm a big, big-eared, greasy-haired, short-and-tight figure.
      But no, when I say this, I feel like Juliet and I are connected, and some romances in life are to balance the unromantic ones in life; some are not, some are just to escape the unromantic ones in life....

      [Exhibition at the China Film Archive] Film version. Forgive my stupidity, I didn't understand the relationship between the hero and heroine until the end of the movie. couple? ex-husband? Father and daughter? ... In fact, it is a pair of men and women who meet for the first time, practicing the theory of the male protagonist: imitations are also valuable. In the film, the Bai language is even involved in the narrative. The switch of the male and female protagonists to the Bai language is also...

      This movie is really interesting. I've never really believed that movies can explore philosophy. To be honest, I just think movies are inferior to philosophy, and the philosophy that can be explored in movies is a philosophy that has little value. But this movie is really interesting. There is a chance to find a few more Abbas movies to...

      copy? Original? False is true. ....

    Movie plot

    Ella ( Juliette Binoche ) , a Frenchman living in a small town in Tuscany, runs a gallery with high taste, and one day she attends an exhibition by British writer James Miller ( William Miller). Shimell (played by Shimell ) provides a deep dive into the authenticity and inevitable affectation associated with art. Ella seemed particularly fascinated by James' passion for literature, and she then invited him to take a tour of the...

    Evaluation action

    The film's dialogue lacks themes. The discussion of the respective values ​​and meanings of the original artwork and The Certified Copy is just an introduction in the film, and the film does not intend to raise it to a philosophical level, but the main topic of this introduction is not attractive. The propositions thrown by the protagonist in the role-playing are nothing more than reflecting that men and women have different views on...

    Movie quotes

    • Elle: After we've seen so many copies of something over so many years, we're not all experts who can stand before an original and understand it. It takes our breath away. Therefore, without the existence of copies, we wouldn't understand originals.

    • Elle: I didn't get married to live alone. I'd like to live my life with my husband. Mmm... Is a good husband too much to ask for?

      La patronne du café: Our lives can't be all that bad if all we can complain about is our husbands working too hard. You see, when there's not another woman, we see their job as our rival.

    • James Miller: My family lives their lives and I live my life. They speak their language and I speak mine. That makes sense doesn't it?

      Elle: It makes a lot of sense.
