      "The word love is too big..."

      I fell asleep again when I saw it, sweat.
      "The word love is too big..." The
      admiring husband asked the theater staff if his wife had been there, and then gave him a tip.
      It's the information fee.
      In China, it is difficult to ask for it like this.
      A certain line "Your wife and children are not chosen, but met." At
      last the fire was burning, the old man and the old woman looked back together, and the woman said, "Life is no longer, but I have loved it." A certain...

           "Ge Chu" in the movie room of the museum is not a film with a strong story or tone. Danish director Dreyer’s very important final work in the 1960s. Why did he choose this film to talk about the relationship between thinking and film? The main reason is that the relationship between film and thinking was in Deleuze last week. The first definite and very important theory is perception...

      Ge Chu

      For the most part of the story, in the dialogue between the heroine Ge Chu and his predecessor, current and lover, there is a seemingly entangled relationship between Ge Chu and his lover. The predecessor wants to rehabilitate the old because he was busy with work and played down love, while the lover is Because Ge Chu wants to go far and fly together and he does not want to be "supported" by him, and the current minister is too busy to be a minister and his feelings have long been overwhelmed....

      Untitled 12

      Gabriel (the poet)'s speech: Thinking good thought requires courage; a true soul does not need to be hidden behind his thoughts. '

      Georg (heroine, singer): Georg is an atheist. She believes in free will. She said that my father is a fatalist and believes that everything is arranged, but I have to choose my husbands. Georg's creed is "love". Life has nothing but love and youth. Love is everything. Man came to this world alone, facing his own death alone, man can only be responsible for...

      Dreyer's films are entirely emotional, so although his space appears to be stagnant, in essence it is all fluid; although the form is very dramatic, it is entirely cinematic. In the slow but moving "Ge Chu", the spatial relationship between the characters is completely emotionalized and becomes a tension zone between the souls. This is the purgatory of the soul, torturing whether it is possible for people to love each other. The heroine adheres to Dreyer's consistent line of martyrdom, and...

      The aristocratic version of Hong Changxiu is close to a scene, and the lines and light and shadow are also aristocratic. There are not many embarrassing scenes between a woman and the four men in her life. The godless she says "love is everything" and men want fame and greatness more. But the film never solves the philosophical question of love. At the end, the noble Nora ran away and obtained a quiet life and freedom, which is too ideal. The characters are peculiarly arranged, and there are...

      Anna from Denmark is old and ugly, with big eyes and a good voice. The pursuit of love is as persistent as a child's pursuit of candy. The movie is not boring, but it is obviously...

    Movie plot

    "A woman's love and a man's work are a dead end." This is the perception of the protagonist of the film. She is a woman with identity, status, and the love of three high-quality men at the same time, but none of them can put their love for her supreme. So she chose to give up, preferring to endure the loneliness of the rest of her life. On the day her husband became minister, she left him. Her current lover is a successful pianist, and...

    Evaluation action

    This is Delaire's swan song. He was 75 years old at the time. The style of the film was quiet and detached. It was rejected by the premiere audience. Now his reputation has increased. The film mostly uses a long mid-range lens, try to avoid movement and location, so the stage cavity is dense. This old-fashioned style is very popular with a certain audience, even to the height of Yasujiro Ozu , but it must be said that the film lacks...

    Movie quotes

    • Gustav Kanning: [First lines] Gertrud. Gertrud. You're still here.

    • Gustav Kanning: It gets dark early now.

      Gertrud Kanning: I should probably go.

      Gustav Kanning: I seek your lips and you give me your cheek. And the door to your room has been locked to me for more than a month. I used to be welcome there. I often lie awake, thinking of you. I've thought you might be in love with someone else and I've wondered who it could be.

      [Doorbell rings]

      Gustav Kanning: Damn it, Mamma's here.

    • Gustav Kanning: I love you, Gertrud.

      Gertrud Kanning: Love. Such a big word. There's so much you love. You love power and honor, you love yourself, your intellectual life, your books, your Havana cigars... and I am sure you love me at times.
