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...

Krank: Irvin?
L'oncle Irvin: I've got a migraine!
Krank: Irvin, you know all about feelings. Won't you try to help me? Won't you explain why all those children only have nightmares?
L'oncle Irvin: Because you are their nightmare. You could persecute all the children in the world, but there's one thing you'll never have.
Krank: What?
L'oncle Irvin: A soul.
Krank: Because you believe you have one? You don't even have a body. The one who created us made us all monsters.
L'oncle Irvin: No Krank, you're wrong. You are the only monster here.
Krank: [Distressed] Be Quiet! He is the only one responsible for that, I say I'm innocent. I'm innocent!
Krank: [Shuffles away and then turns back with regained composure] In any case, I thank you for your help.
le scaphandrier: The Children!
Miette: What about them? What do you know?
le scaphandrier: He takes them. The Devil takes them away. In his boat... he takes them to Hell.
Miette: What Hell?
le scaphandrier: The tattooed man: he knows where. The map... the map of the minefield is tattooed on his body.
L'oncle Irvin: [after Krank's latest failiure] Who stole the child's dreams? Krank, in his evil schemes. But the happy tale had a sting in it's tail. The genius has a fit of pique, hear the genius shriek, the 'genius' is up a creek.
