      The Bow--The Love Of Old Man And Girl

      It's for a living, it's fortune telling.

      also earning a living, fighting to protect loved ones when someone bullies them.

      It is more of a bond, playing the tacit understanding between the old man and the girl.

      color

      The green of the maiden and the blue of the red old man and the light green of the youth

      There are different changes in different time periods

      In the first stage, the girl's red and green are fresh and bright green is also related to the old man's green to some extent.

      After the appearance of the teenager in the second stage, the girl changed her clothes and wore a touch of blue to...

      seriously underrated movie

      What counts as a grossly underrated movie? That is, we can only give five stars, but five stars are only the upper limit, and it does not mean how high your recognition of this movie is.

      First of all, this movie is definitely a niche movie. The niche is so small that we don't know about this movie if we don't look at some self-media software. But that doesn't stop him from being amazing.

      This movie probably tells the story of an old man who has been raising a man for more than...

      A few highlights

      Highlight 1: Self-esteem and self-improvement He has a poor background. His father went to work in the city and was killed in a traffic accident. His mother was too sad and passed away not long after. His uncle adopted him, but his aunt did not treat him well and often beat and scolded him. Hearing that his uncle was going to the city to play cotton, he followed his uncle with a bed and roll, and wanted to earn money to eat by himself. A boy of 14 or 15 years old, in the face of family...

      Kim Ki-duk "Bow"

      Kim Ki-duk's "The Bow" should be the first Korean film I clearly liked. When I saw it, it had a great impact, so I always wanted to watch all of Kim Ki-duk's movies. I have always been very interested in this director and the film ( As long as I don't know what's wrong with him at the time) Kim Ki-duk's films always give the impression that he's the one who "gazed into the abyss, but then became the abyss". How to treat Kim Ki-duk and his films is a difficult problem. Can the film really be...

    Movie plot

    On the blue sea, there are two boats, one large and one small. Small boats shuttle tourists between the sea and land, and then tourists fish and watch the scenery on the big boat. The two boats are run by an old man ( played by Seong-hwang Jeon ) and a girl ( played by Han Yeo-reum ) who is not yet 17 years old . The girl was picked up by the old man on the shore 10 years ago. In 10 years, the girl has not been on land. The old man and...

    Overall

    Although "Hwal" cannot be said to be a breakthrough, it has Kim's specialties such as Ki-duk Kim's stylized shots, deformed violence and emotions, and has many shadows from previous works. The two protagonists only use their eyes, facial expressions, and actions to conquer people's hearts. They are very delicate and three-pointers. Seong-hwang Jeon, who plays the old man, is quite brilliant. The scene of the rope wrapped around his...

    Picture quality

    Although the beauty of the picture is slightly inferior to that of Ki-duk Kim’s "Spring Comes and Spring Comes", which is famous for its beautiful scenery and freehand brushwork, the realism of the picture has improved a lot. The girl in the wooden boat, even with such a poetic beauty, the whole picture looks quite real. In addition to the beautiful picture, the picture quality is almost perfect, especially the details of the facial...

    Sound quality

    There are no large dynamic scenes in the film, and the character dialogue in "Hwal" is also pitiful. The male and female protagonists do not have a single line, and they rely entirely on their body and expressions to perform. The film uses pictures to tell the story. Therefore, this film does not require sound. high. It is worth mentioning that the use of music in the film is quite successful. Against the background of piano music, the...
