      FIFF15丨DAY7 "Jeanne Dillman": The story of No. 23 Commercial Street 1080 Brussels belongs not only to one woman, but to all women in the world

      The 7th screening day of the main competition unit of the 15th #faroeislandfilmfestival will bring you "Jean Dillman". Let's see the evaluation of the front-line housewives, although they only have three days, but they are like a lifetime!

      I know a little about her:

      A female director's Oedipus complex

      After watching "Not a Family Movie", which was filmed last year, I realized that I had actually watched two Chantal Ackerman films. The other is Jeanne Dillman, which she made at the age of 26.

      Born in 1950, shortly after the death of her mother after filming "Not a Home Movie", she chose to commit suicide one day last October, and "Not a Home Movie" became her posthumous work.

      She doesn't like being labeled as a feminist. She was born as a woman, and she just observes...

      I just picked up the scissors on the dresser and cut the exit of life

      The film and people's breathing always maintain the same rhythm, and the emotional transition is smooth and rich. In 201 minutes, it is like having spent three days of Jeanne's life.

      Although Jeanne worked hard to maintain a single mother's life by "selling skin and flesh", she never gave up the cup of coffee in the tavern. Just like the hint of the red silk scarf, it maintains her "arrogant" self-esteem.

      When Jeanne tried to create a bistro taste with coffee from a...

      Jeanne Dierman, 23 Rue Commercial, Brussels 1080

      "In Jeanne Dierman, when we see Delphine Seliger sitting in a chair for a few minutes, we don't think about a distant or recent past, but suddenly wonder if she's well arranged Live your life to the fullest so that you don't let troubles come in. Is it just her troubles? No. No, not just that." - Chantal Ackerman
           
      This is Chantelle Al Ackerman's 1975 feature film. At this time, Chantal Ackerman was only 25 years old, which was not in line with the film's mature and restrained...

      The best movie I've seen about death. Lengthen a rubber band, slowly until the rubber band is unconscious, while watching its expression. It wasn't until it finally broke that I woke up, and those expressions were called the pain of being...

      Andy Warhol is possessed, which is a test of patience; the best way to express emptiness and boredom is to show it directly; it is not only the audience who are bored for three hours, but also the protagonist, but it is this performance art that makes the ending of the film. Behaviour becomes...

      201 minutes without a dull field! The first day was especially beautiful. Delphine Seyrig's every movement and demeanor was a perfect body memory; the little ripples that followed, every little gesture and expression carried emotion, calm but made waves. This is undoubtedly Ackerman's most beautiful and simple yet rich movie. In the "non-family movie", "I think my mother is the most beautiful." Get the attention of this beautiful housewife; DMs explain the past, gifts drive emotions. Every time...

      A fixed seat, a dull life; a woman, turning the lights on and off. With no tricks and no modifications, this kind of treatment is especially close to the original appearance of life. But such a line drawing does not mean unrestrained laying out. The image is still vaguely conveying the director's intention. The sharp and sudden ending instantly transforms into a variety of mixed emotions, thus quietly completing the sublimation of the story....

    Evaluation action

    "Jeanne Dillman" details the experience of a housewife for two days and three nights. The fixed camera position, long shots and few lines, no close-ups, and out-of-focus practices are more "anti-film". To a certain extent, it is similar to "Horse of Turin", and this "set in stone" also creates a shocking ending. The whole film can be said to have no style, but it is full of style. Melodrama, experimental drama, minimalism all come...

    Movie quotes

    • 1st Caller: See you next week, then.

    • Sylvain Dielman: [Referring to his dead father] If he was ugly, did you want to make love with him?

      Jeanne Dielman: Ugly or not, it wasn't all that important. Besides, "making love" as you call it, is merely a detail. And I had you. And he wasn't as ugly as all that.

      Sylvain Dielman: Would you want to remarry?

      Jeanne Dielman: No. Get used to someone else?

      Sylvain Dielman: I mean someone you love.

      Jeanne Dielman: Oh, you know...

      Sylvain Dielman: Well, if I were a woman, I could never make love with someone I wasn't deeply in love with.

      Jeanne Dielman: How could you know? You're not a woman. Lights out?

    • Jeanne Dielman: I met your father after the Americans had left. I was living with my aunts, because my parents were dead. One Saturday, I went to the Bois de la Cambre with a girlfriend. I don't remember the weather. She knew him. You know who I mean. I've shown you her picture. So, we began seeing each other. I was working as a billing clerk for horrible pay. Life with my aunts was dull. I didn't feel like getting married, but it seemed to be "the thing to do," as they say. My aunts kept saying "He's nice. He's got money. He'll make you happy." But I still couldn't decide. But I really wanted a life of my own, and a child. Then his business suddenly hit the rocks, so I married him. Things like that happened after the war.
