      In the spring dream of Huajie, I don't know if I am a guest

      I don't like her, shouting and shouting, dressed in a mess, standing on the street without caring, fighting for the man who deceived her, pulling her hair and pouting her ass. She is Kabidia.
      I like her. She has black hair and drooping shoulders. She goes to church with her mother, picks flowers from the roadside to give to her sweetheart, and is moved by the philanthropist who takes care of the poor. She is Maria.
      Kabylia is hot-tempered, arrogant, philistine, irritable, deceived,...

      The real good man has nothing to do with the world

      5 points, the real good people have nothing to do with the world, they don't harass and ask others to be like him, they go to have fun alone, take the illusion of the world as a natural metaphor, they don't get misunderstood and hatred by the world And easily change themselves, their happiness is pure, like a God without troubles. Didn't Fellini photograph Lanzhou in the early days? The woman who lost her husband and danced the Xinjiang dance alone by the Yellow River, the man who sold fried...

      all beings suffer

      "...she described to me some of her stories, interspersed with cruel and ugly facts, insignificant lives, and other plots that she knew at first sight were made up under the guise of movies and graphic novels she had seen. She stubbornly insisted The reason to confuse the two is to be able to believe, heartbroken, that her unfortunate life is just like the life she has decorated and narrated with the innocent and sensual dreams of an ignorant little girl." The heroine's...

      All about Masina

      Masina, a name I'll love the first time I say it. The name belonged to a woman who embraced a young Fellini in kindergarten, only to feel dizzy at the strange smell of potatoes and soap, and then for half a century.
      My favorite part of the film is when Cabiria babbles in front of the big star. One of the ways to get out of the quarrel with your girlfriend is, of course, to find another woman. She was doing business on the street and inadvertently watched the lost star, so she was...

      In the name of love, Kabylia was deceived again and again, and she turned into a spokesperson for the suffering public, venting her resentment that she was not favored by God. The end of the film makes a good summary: even if you have nothing to die for, there is still a beautiful vision full of vigor around you, and the opposite artistic conception blends cruel beauty. Wiping away tears, smiling and living strong. Thank you Fellini and Mrs. Fellini for this national...

      The first time she was robbed of her wallet and pushed into the water, she didn't call the police; the second time she was defrauded of all her money, she didn't throw it into the water. However, no matter how kind and strong she is, the Virgin Mary will not pity her. Her fate Fellini has predicted: an old and fading prostitute, living in a cave. Joking about cruelty, too cruel. It looked...

      Use the talent of comedy to interpret pathetic propositions. Judging from the four early representative works, if there is no god-level acting skills of Giulietta Masina, Fellini may be difficult to enter the three saints....

      Come on, if you want to kill, you don't have to be soft-hearted. I just hope that you have lived for a thousand days and you have fulfilled your dream. 2020.10.23 Shanghai Cinema. She walked every road, not believing at first, then convinced, and finally disappointed. Then choose another path and start all over again. 2020.12.25 Watch Kabylia Night on Christmas Eve. Unlike "The Great Road", this movie is all about watching Masina, no matter how many times you watch it, you will still be...

    Movie plot

    Kabylia was pushed into the river by a young man she loved. He robbed her of her money and ran away. Fortunately, she shouldn't have died and was rescued. Soon, Kabylia met an actor and was taken home by him to spend a pleasant evening. However, just as she was immersed in the dream of love, the actor's original girlfriend came back, and the two quickly reconciled as before. Poor Kabylia hid in the bathroom, listening to the continuous...

    Background creation

    Fellini's filming of "Cabiria" originated from a small figure conceived for Anna Magnani. Rossellini is looking for an inspiration and theme to make a short film to be combined with another short film based on Jean Cocteau’s life experience that has already been filmed. Magnani asked Fellini to think of a good story for Rossellini. So, he drew up a story about a little prostitute who was taken back to the apartment by a male celebrity...

    Evaluation action

    The film's story is well-arranged, and the plot is flawless. In this film, the contradiction between the author's "vertical" theme and "horizontal" narrative requirements has been satisfactorily resolved. Fellini succeeded in endowing the film with tragic tension and rigor, abandoning methods that are incompatible with his world. Like "The Road" and "The Liar", the film is a story of asceticism and salvation. The rigor and perfection...
