No matter how turbid and treacherous, it can't cover up the subtle affection
Dirty streets, a hopeless world view, cruel world, inexhaustible turbid air, green water that can smell nightmares, everything that makes it too late to complain about extreme normality and ugliness is a way of wrapping beauty in warmth, just like the ending song In the same way, the twisted and treacherous notes are finally overwhelmed by the harmony of the strings. Our life is not as suffocated as the world view of the film, but it may be too much at any time. At this time, I hope that I can...

Fantastic fairy tale horror world
The first "Angel Amelie" I watched. This household name film combines French humor with postmodern hyperbole and grotesque. With a happy song, a sad song was sung.
In the real world, how many love beauty? How many Ninos are there like Amelia? There are several who can appear in the same period, in the same city, and at the same subway entrance, doing the same things that others don't understand.
Therefore, behind happiness, there is always a lot of bitterness as a price. At...

from the classical imagination
The French people's film imagination cannot be compared with a few star faces, a few steel armors, stylized vulgar plots, and vigorous computer stunts in an assembly-line Hollywood clone factory. The imagination they give you is deeply hidden in the absurd and surprising expressions of each yin and yang protagonist, in every dream constructed with cellophane paper, cotton cloth, horses, branches, boats, and cotton clouds, and every dark and damp crawling snail can kill people with mosquitoes....

In the foggy night, the dazzling green water of Paris is rippling with microwaves. In this hazy city, it seems that sunlight will never penetrate...
The protagonist of the movie is like countless people drifting on this green water. A big man with a mind like a child, dedicated to looking for the stolen waiter brother, although danger often blocked his way, even though he didn't know the whereabouts of the waiter boy, he kept going on firmly, because there were some. The feeling of a...

Director Jean-Pierre Genet I don't think I need to comment any more here.
The film is entertaining, imaginative, and best watched when you feel tired physically and mentally and lacking in thinking, because it sweeps away those obstacles.
It's a surreal movie, you can also call it a children's drama (think it is suitable for children to watch).
In terms of style, "Black Shop Rhapsody" and "The Good Ruffian" are similar to it, but they also have their own...

So cool. C has said it several times, and I also have a psychological expectation, but I am still very surprised at first glance. I wanted to check it out for lunch. As a result, I couldn't put it down when I saw it, so I had to let myself finish it. Every character has a personality, every shot has a comic sense, the story is very flavorful, neither strong nor weak, but has stamina, and the aftertaste is endless. Watching a good movie makes my whole body feel warm. Genet has yet to disappoint...

Miette: When you're born in the gutter you end up in the port.
L'oncle Irvin: [Following through with his suggestion that a solution might be found found in an analysis of Krank's "tears"] Once upon a time there was an inventor so gifted that he could create life. A truly remarkable man.
Krank: [Sarcastically] A fairy tale! Tears are welling in my eyes.
L'oncle Irvin: Since he had no wife or children he decided to create them in his laboratory. He started with wife and fas into the most beautiful princess in the world. Alas, a wicked genetic fairy cast a spell on the inventor so much so that the princess was only knee height or less. He then cloned six children in his own image, faithful, hardworking. They were so alike no one could tell them apart. But fate tricked him again, giving them all sleeping sickness. Craving someone to talk to he grew in a fish-tank a poor migraine-ridden brain. And then at last he created his masterpiece more intelligent then the most intelligent man on Earth.
[Krank freezes]
L'oncle Irvin: But alas the inventor made a serious mistake. While his creation was intelligent he never ever had a dream. You can't image how his sadness made him quickly he grow old.
[Krank sheds a single teardrop]
Clone: [Seeing it] Boss!... There!... There!
[Krank tries to catch it]
Clone: Quick! A dropper!
Clone: A dropper Quick!
Mlle. Bismuth: [Bismuth and the clones start rushes around for a dropper] A dropper!
Mlle. Bismuth: A dropper!
Clone: A dropper!
Mlle. Bismuth: A dropper! A dropper!
Clone: A dropper!
Mlle. Bismuth: [Finding one] Ah, a dropper!
[Goes to Krank and gently uses it to get the tear]
L'oncle Irvin: [Disgusted] The poor masterpiece became so crazed he believed a single tear drop could save him. And after many cruel deeds he died.
L'oncle Irvin: [shouting] Never knowing what it was to dream!
Miette: One?
[One grunts]
Miette: You asleep?
[One breathes deeply and mumbles]
Miette: What did you do before?
One: One sailor. Harpooned Whales. One night
[pauses]
One: One hear whales singing. After
[gestures throwing of harpoon]
One: always always the target I miss. One loses job.
Miette: One?
[pauses]
Miette: What's it like to have a little brother?
One: Keeps you
[pauses]
One: running.
Miette: Well, he can't complain he's got nobody to worry about him.
One: [Turns over] Denree- little brother. Miette- little sister.
[Blows air on Miette's back]
Miette: What are you doing?
One: [Whispers in Miette's ear] Radiator
