adolescent love

As one of the films of the 2017 Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival, it was screened at Shin Kong Cinema in Taipei. The two-hour-long run shows a lot. But the biggest element to be shown in the film should be youth and homosexuality.
Saul and Christine in the film are good brothers in their adolescence. Saul is secretly ashamed of his sluggish development, and also has a crush on a girl - Beth, and Christine is also quietly in love with himself good brother. I was saddened by what Kristin...

[1 - The Valley of the Whales] It is
recommended to watch it with the director's other short film "The Valley of the Whales" . "Stone of the Heart" can be regarded as an expanded version of "The Valley of the Whales". One of the biggest points of convergence between the two films is the extreme use of explicit use of corpses. If the huge corpse of the whale in "The Valley of the Whales" gives people an instant shock, then "Stone of the Heart" repeatedly uses the corpses of different...

As gentle as you can be

I have seen the 15-minute short film "The Valley of the Whales" by Icelandic director Gu Demonsson before. It is very similar to most Nordic movies, and it is cold and gloomy. Later, at the Venice Film Festival in 2016, there was "Stone of the Heart", a feature film based on "The Valley of the Whales" by the director. The films made by Nordic directors, no matter how bizarre, perverted, or pure love the theme is, they all like to use a clean style of painting.

January 6 Heart Stone

This two-hour movie feels like three or four hours have passed. (Too sleepy on the way and passed out)

It's a pretty brutal movie. This cruelty is long, abyss, and cannot be eliminated.

-Everyone's heart is trampled, and everyone is trying to be brave.

The stone fish at the end had a white belly, but it came back to life with a flick of its tail. Is it a kind of comfort from the director?

- After being away from student life, I can't remember for a long time, the feud...

If the heart stone knows the heart stone, it can be reborn.

A very sad movie, I feel sorry for Christian, the relationship between Sol and Christian is too good, Christian even has more than ordinary feelings for Sol, saying to Sol that I can do anything for you, so that I have been helping Sol since then. Chasing Beth, stealing horses, and finally being beaten by Dad. But Sol did not understand this feeling. Don't know how to deal with it. But the final ending is gratifying, [Stone Fish] Christian was finally reborn, just like catching fish at the...

Like the saying of friends and neighbors, Iceland is a natural photo studio. Even on a green summer day, there is still an icy coolness. Restrained, slow-paced and even boring movies, loneliness accompanied by a long adolescence seems to never end, and there is no turning...

In the true and slightly cruel "Stone of the Heart", a group of lying, sitting, and standing are destined to be tempted by "desire" due to excess energy, destined to lose their lives for "sex", destined to "love" "The troubled young man. Fortunately or unfortunately, the common and normal ones are found, picked, and eaten first, and the rare and offbeat Some Freaks are destined to be ostracized, left, and dumped. Obviously, like The Squid and the Whale, this is a work that will make you want to...

More than 90% of the whole film is pure natural light, which leads to many night scenes and indoor scenes that cannot be seen clearly. Whether it is due to cost constraints or the director deliberately, the viewing experience is not very good. The story is fairly smooth. In the final analysis, it is a growth story. Sexual orientation exploration, family relationships, peer recognition... The use of animals to express it is crude and cruel but still...
