      The loneliness of Virgo's desolate carnal love--"Last Tango in Paris" (transfer)

      For a virgin who advocates sincere feelings, is full of bewilderment about feelings, is critical and suspicious, and is always at a loss before true love, this film often touches the deepest and most susceptible nerves everywhere.

        The calm but full of suffocation scenes, the desolate and empty bleak scenery, although it is an erotic film with intricate relationships between characters, it really tells the theme of despair. Two people who are like father and daughter at the same age...

      Slight feminism, still confused.

      Always called herself a slight feminist.
      I also try to constantly explore the boundaries and needs of feminism in my relationship.
      I know it's my own responsibility.

      I'm not a radical feminist, and
      I don't want to overemphasize women's rights while ignoring men and build a matriarchal society as opposed to a patriarchal society.
      I know that too much emphasis on women's rights is like the Hong Xiuquan peasant uprising, which overthrew the old dynasty, but still...

      For people who say they're insane to give a point for not watching a movie

      That person named High Priest, someone else came to give one point because the director and Brando violated the actress for making this movie, this is a part of this movie that can't be erased, if you understand it, attach The director's words for you
      "I specified, but perhaps I was not clear, that I decided with Marlon Brando not to inform Maria that we would have used butter," he noted. "We wanted her spontaneous reaction to that improper use [of the butter ]. That is where the...

      The advance, retreat and death of love

      Deviant love is a rebellion against ordinary life. Passion itself is a revolutionary reproductive instinct that transcends animals, so that people can become real "human beings", cross the boundaries of social morality and gender, and return to the origin of love.

      Let us be in this unknown room, with no names and no identities, only chasing and fleeing like a tango. Ridicule the dancers, the rules, who are serious. Performances appear in the corners of everyday life, and people are...

      details, memo

      Beginning with two paintings by Bacon.

      Concierge: You must be very young, laughing wildly after that.

      The man threw away the top hat in the girl's hands and picked her up, and the intimacy began. The two tumbled awkwardly on the floor.

      Pick up boyfriend at the train station. If I kiss you, it can be a movie; if I hug you, it can be a movie.

      I gave a very low evaluation. I have never liked to watch such erotic movies. It is a really boring movie. What does the director want to...

      Brando's acting is really good. A middle-aged man on the verge of collapsing out of control. But I don't think it can be summed up as the fact that he finally left the pain of losing his wife and chose to start a new life and the woman in front of him. Obviously, there is no connection with the final shot that he fell to the ground with empty eyes. He died a long time ago, how can we start...

      An old man full of entanglements, desires, and unfinished love, and a woman who is inexplicably entangled in entanglements, can only end this relationship with no head and no end by death. Brando's middle-aged voice sounded obscene, not as good as old...

    Behind the scenes

    Marlon Brando temporarily prepared most of his own lines for the film because he felt that many of the lines in the script were not to his appetite.
    During the filming, Bernardo Bertolucci tried to explain clearly the role of Marlon Brando in the film, suggesting that his role was Bertolucci’s "adult time", the "Maria Struned" "The role of "used to be his "dream lover". Brando later said that he didn't know what Bertolucci was talking...
