      Laurence Anyways--Emotion And Story That Come Naturally

      I enjoyed the quarrel between the characters very much and found it very interesting. The words are the real feelings of the characters, not their disorderly venting. The two people shout out their hearts, which is the real communication. And only real communication moves the story forward.

      I also admire the...

      The absurdity of life is that we always seem to be lost along the way to truly be reborn.

      Dolan's film may be more suitable for a person to ponder quietly at home, but it is hard to imagine that such a three-hour stream-of-consciousness film, if the bullet screen is not opened, there will be no friends around. Tucao, and there is no delicious food to pass the time, how to be patient and read it completely.

      The incomparably lengthy plot, the rhythm is slow, the scene color is gorgeous, the slow motion is superimposed, the detailed description is highlighted, and the rich...

      Soulmates and reality. . Which one do you choose?

      Even if you don't watch the plot, this movie is enough to be a visual art feast.

      Various slow-motion, close-up and even exaggerated psychological activities are used to portray (the butterfly in the mouth, the heroine is chilled by the waterfall in her heart on the sofa), and the bold color matching and high taste of the whole play are the finishing touch.

      Even if these five stars are all given to the artistic effect, I am convinced!
      Who knows...

      The girl Heluo who used to cry with burgundy hair

      Last night, I lost sleep and had a nightmare. Tossing and turning in bed for three full hours, the feeling of sultry and humid summer made my heart palpitate. She had similar symptoms to me. I opened "Miryang" and watched it without hesitation. I knew it wouldn't work, but this method was told to me by the person who once dyed burgundy, painted his eyebrows, and often cried in front of me.
        
        She said it was one of her favorite films of Dolan, and she said it many times. But I am...

      the truth of love

      I always thought that the theme of this movie was gender disorder before I saw it, but in the end I found out that it was still a popular romance: Lawrence chose to openly cross-dress, and from beginning to end hoped (requested) Fred to sacrifice (endure) for himself. The psychological and life pressure brought by his transgender to Fred), which actually reflects the fact that the party in control of the relationship requires the other party to give unconditionally for himself without bottom...

      Xavier Dolan's third feature film, continuing his personal aesthetics, begins to rise to the confrontation between the marginalized and society. The much-criticized slow-motion has been restrained, and the narrative ability has also been significantly strengthened. For example, the stream of consciousness scene in "The Hours" is quite amazing, but the nearly 170-minute film length not only exposed his shortcomings in rhythm control, but also showed that he still A narcissist who doesn't know...

      Melvil Poupaud's women's dress is really not particularly good-looking, especially without a wig, but he really liked the part where he walked through the school corridor after his first cross-dressing. The color, costume, and soundtrack are all very Xavier Dolan, the heroine in his movie is better than the big mom every time, but every time she plays it better. The whole movie is rich in emotion, but the climax is slightly more, if the length is stuck in an hour and a half, it will be just...

    "Laurence Anyways" is the third feature film of Canadian young director Xavier Dolan, and it is also Dolan's most ambitious and epic work since filming. Compared with the previous work, the film no longer has such a strong autobiographical color. However, Dolan cleverly extracted the commonalities of human emotions from the special fringe characters—the inner core behind those passionate love, disputes, vacillation, deterioration and...

    Movie quotes

    • Journaliste: What are you looking for Laurence Alia?

      Laurence Alia: I'm looking for a person, who understands my language and speaks it. A person who, without being a pariah, will question not only the rights and the value of the marginalized, but also those of the people who claim to be normal.

    • Laurence Alia: So... will you still love me?

      Julienne Alia: Are you becoming a woman or an idiot?

    • [last lines]

      [English subtitled version]

      Laurence Alia: [showing her a metal pin] Excuse me, miss. This may sound a little stupid, but... the guys over there made this. If you take it, I'll get $20.

      Fred Bellair: [taking and looking at the pin] What is it? Some kind of cloud?

      Laurence Alia: [laughing under his breath] No, it's a butterfly. But the fact you think it's a cloud minimizes my pleasure.

      Fred Bellair: You just made twenty bucks.

      Laurence Alia: Okay, here's the deal. $10 for gas, and $10 to buy you a drink after wrap. Hm? Deal?

      Fred Bellair: [thinking about it for a few seconds before offering her hand to shake] Fred Bellair.

      Laurence Alia: [shaking her hand] Laurence Alia.

      Fred Bellair: Laurence who?

      Laurence Alia: Alia. But... it's Laurence, anyways.
