      050804 Movie Watching Notes

      Lovers in the Arctic Circle made me feel like I wasted my life a lot in the past, and made me regret that I didn't go to China to work last week. I'm
      really a superb storyteller. I feel that the director's thinking is very clear and his ability to control the story is super strong! Unlike the previous works of several narrators who simply emphasized the impermanence of life and the elusiveness of chance, he has a belief, a belief that one can control fate, which I like. Although this...

      The so-called eternal love and destiny

      (There are plots revealed, but in such a movie, having a certain understanding will not spoil the fun, but will deepen the impression.)
          When he was a child, Otto did not understand why his father didn't like his mother, and felt that it was all his father's fault. . The mother said that it is not the fault of the individual, that only the love for the child is eternal in this world. Dad said that life is doomed, and time erodes everything, including love. Otto doesn't believe, since he...

      the coil

      Watched Julio Medem's "The Red Squirrel Murder" three years ago, and then "Lucia's Lover."
          I haven't watched "Arctic Circle Lovers", and I feel that such a theme will have too much literary and artistic capital, and it must be associated with boring, but I feel relieved when I know that the director and the first two films are the same person.
          After watching this film, I guessed that there are three "North", "Red" and "Lu". "North" seems to be a relatively late filming. The...

      It's a little colder in winter, so you can appreciate the benefits of spring more

      Otto said: "It's good to live in a constant cycle. But mine is only a circle, and it's not even complete. The most important thing is missing. I wrote her name in my mind countless times. Here and now , I can't get close to anything, I exist alone." (In the loop, otto met the defect in the loop and lost ana.) Ana said: "I will wait here for as long as necessary, waiting for a game in my life. Great coincidences. I've had all kinds of coincidences, and coincidences make up the path of my life....

      autumn 2010

      Hair slowly loses moisture like fallen leaves on a branch, and it falls out very neatly. The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, but this year, I have not seen the moon. The cold air suddenly arrives, and my body understands best when the seasons change.
      Depressed, yes. It's hot and humid all of a sudden being frozen in the fridge, which I don't like. I almost forgot when I really craved sweaty summer. Maybe I'm just too afraid of dry muna like the weather.
      Monologue, yours, mine, or...

      It's time to realize it's a tragedy when there's just hope. . . Slowly deviate, farther and farther, and finally miss forever. PS This is the first time to watch a Spanish movie, and the Spanish is also very...

    Evaluation action

    I would say that this is another "Jeux d'enfants" , but it is not. The sneaky sex between Otto and Yana is like the "forbidden fruit" that every teenager has secretly tasted. It is so beautiful and short that people dare not touch it. (Tencent Entertainment Review) 
    In addition to the simple narrative, the rendering of emotions and the scheduling of the system have also not been ignored. As a result, the film presents a kind of...
