Looking back at the beginning of the film, Ceylon's iconic long shot - in the dark night, three cars were on high beams, the interlaced beams created a stage-like illusion, and the mottled light and shadow constructed a strange field. In the meantime, people and things are both vague and clear. The appearance of the person is blurred, the face is placed in the distance, and the dim figure is indistinguishable. But the...

A few scattered points, spit first is faster
The movie Once Upon a Time in Anatolia is definitely the most powerful movie in the last year. The gap between it and other movies is not a little or two, but a big chunk. Even in the context of the continuous good films in Cannes last year, "Bicycle Boy", "Melancholia", "Tree of Life", and "Drive" have all become weaker than it. If it is ranked first, the other films should start from the top five.
Even if this film is placed on the coordinate axis of Ceylon's film work, this film is...

Similar to The Three Monkeys, Once Upon a Time in Anatolia is also a truth-seeking film. The police, prosecutors, forensic doctors, and criminals searched for the corpse to autopsy, all in order to find the truth behind a murder, and the truth of Ceylon was often hidden in his finely woven and powerful video text. Different from "Three Monkeys", Ceylon hides those tricky camera angles and contrasts of front and back depth of field, but still retains his usual melancholy long-range shots....

Once Upon a Time in Anatolia: Undercurrents of Ordinary Life
Under the shroud of darkness, three police cars drove up and down the desolate plateau, only the light of the headlights outlined the outline of the remote Turkish countryside. No one knows what happened, what kind of shocking things happened under this calm and terrifyingly dark night. At the beginning of "Once Upon a Time in Anatolia", the atmosphere was brewed very well, attracting the audience to watch the movie.
Nubi Ceylon is indeed a master, and a murder case that has been...

Check out this review after watching the movie
It's quite natural and real (and leaves a lot of questions for foreign audiences), but it's a little contrived, and the movie is not very smooth in general. Please don't reserve time for the audience to check emails and text messages.
After reading some of the movie reviews here, I didn't make it clear about the content of the movie itself, so I hereby open a post to discuss it. I still didn't catch many parts of the movie, because when they were on the road with their high-beam...

Ceylon-kun, you made the movie so good and not so good, it makes people anxious to watch. . . Working in photography, the change of light and shadow is very attractive. From time to time, an old tower-style long mirror is full of beauty. This is the signature advantage of Ceylon. You can take these advantages to shoot some inexplicably suffocating films. . ok i can only...

For me, this is a movie worth five stars for the first two shots. Big Love! In the first half of the dark night, the grass waves in those big vistas, the figures in those grass waves move slowly, like Brueghel's paintings; the passage of the rolling apple is simply divine! There are also those magical lights and shadows, and of course that can of Coke that is too funny ^^ When I returned to the town in the second half, I was overloaded with information. I was moved after I understood something...

In Anatolia at night, everyone is preoccupied. The solemn statue in the thunder and lightning, the apple downstream, the candlelight in the long night, the memory of the past is terrible and...
