Talking about the sports shots of "Mint"
Skillfully use motion shots such as shaking, hand-held, push-pull, etc., combined with the mood of the scene, to create a sense of atmosphere in a specific era.
Years later, I ran into a criminal who extorted a confession and used the mirror trick. One after the other, with the camera pan, when the two appear in the mirror at the same time, it also means that the contradictions of the year have been resolved. Jin Yonghao said that "life is...

Would you live better if you went back in time
It's not so much a flashback movie, it's a memoir-traveling movie. Between these clips, the time span is huge, and usually in similar movies, the continuity of the film's plot is a big problem. But it is very impressive that Director Lee Changdong can wipe out these inconsistencies. Moreover, at the two ends of the span of these decades, two tears of different meanings connected the end to the end.
In my opinion, there are two clues to connect the...

How time can destroy a man without surprise.
The whole film is a flashback. It takes about 5 years as a segment. The time follows the old train running backwards. The connection of time is relatively soft, and the film is very well edited. At the beginning of the film, a man with a nervous breakdown meets a After a group of people danced, they committed suicide by lying on the rails. Time went backwards with the train that crushed him. 3 days ago, 5 years ago, 10 years ago, 15 years ago. In the words of Uncle Wang, this kind of narrative...

#ELECTRIC Phantom# The Korean version of "Mint" can smooth out how many complex flavors, accompanied by pure colors, originate from the beginning and stay in the end.
There is always some resistance to the smell of mint, but the strong wiping feeling always comes out very cleanly. Once it starts to spread, it can...

The wife's eyes are always "poisonous", and "Mint" was selected from the colorful films. This is a woman-specific intuition. In it, she saw fate. I saw how politics shapes people.
The protagonist collapses, and the film flashback begins. A better way to understand how politics shapes people is to compare the film with the history of Korea. Of course, this is not a personal conjecture, but a reminder from the film's author: he divides the film into several sections with time and themes...

The film has a lot to say. From the perspective of the individual protagonist, how heavy a person's burden can be, and how to go back and redeem, are all conveyed very truly, and that's why it touched me. Although the plot structure is a flashback, the development of the characters themselves (not the audience's cognition of the characters) is quite inherited, so the protagonist's final expression and ending did not return to the beginning, which also confirmed the previous speculation. The...

【A】From this one, I really fell in love with Li Changdong. Movies about time, the grand tide of the times, and the humble personal fate, Li Changdong integrated all of them, and then used the most cruel narrative technique of "flashback" to reproduce the past. The love connected by mints and the fate ended by trains, these symbols throughout the film prove that it is still drama and literature in its bones. You can't go back in time, but memories can go back. Li Cangdong used the last shot to...

After watching Li Cangdong's two films, I thought it was too much. Finally, I came across a good thing, "Mint" is so fucking...

The train of destiny whizzes past, but you can let it reopen~ Li Cangdong is so sharp. But more points are added to Xue Jingqiu's acting skills. So wonderful. After reading this story, I always feel terrified. I don't know from when, life has slipped into a doom and...
Yongho: It's leaking, in a new place. Last night, the rain fell on my forehead, as I lay in bed. You, sit down! Fucker! This isn't a game, sit! Isn't the way I live pathetic? Wonder why I live this way? Although I don't know who sent you, I want to talk with you.
Yongho: Do you think life's beautiful?
Yongho: I don't want to die alone. I need one bastard to come with me. Just one bastard among all that ruined my life. But then... Who should I kill? It gives me hard time, you know. To pick just one is hard thing to do. The fucking stock broker who made me go clean broke? The vampire like loan shark that charged the ridiculous interest? Or... how about the business partner who run away with my money? Or should I take my ex-wife and my kid to die with me? There're so many fuckers in my life that it's hard to pick just one.
