In the late 1970s and early 1980s, British cinema slipped into an unprecedented trough: creative themes dried up and audience numbers plummeted. However, British film workers are not discouraged. They are constantly striving for self-improvement, working hard, and boldly making various explorations, striving to open up new paths on the basis of promoting national culture. This film came out in this context. The British Film Institute and TV Channel 4, which have always provided substantial...

The Murder in an English Manor-"The Draughtsman's Contract"
After watching Peter. After Greenaway’s 1982 "Cartographer’s Contract", he couldn’t get back to his senses. After being shocked, his brain couldn’t think of anything useful like a short circuit until after a period of time, he saw CCTV. After the National Treasure Archives album on "A River on the Ching Ming Festival", I suddenly felt a lot of emotion. Through the masterpiece "A River on the Ching Ming Festival", I saw the interesting and essence of Greenaway's strict compliance with the...

When Nietzsche madmen generally chant: "God is dead", an atheist like me just thinks through it for a while, and then sums up: "If you die, you die. In my mind, it never existed." Director Peter. Greenaway said with a cynical attitude: "The movie is dead." I don’t know if it will be remembered by many people in many years. In fact, nothing can die out easily, it's just a change of form. When carbon becomes a diamond, a beautiful woman becomes an old woman, life becomes a machine, and Abai...

"A really smart person can be a painter. A painter needs to turn a blind eye to part of the picture. Only if he refuses to make a choice. A smart person knows better what he is painting, not what he sees. In what he knows and what he sees. In time, he will be somewhat restrained. He can't desperately pursue an idea. He is afraid that the eyes of the people he wants to please are too sharp, and he will find that he not only adds what he sees to the painting, but also what...

I didn't understand it but was shocked. Whether it is the picture, the soundtrack, the dialogue of the characters, or the language of the camera lens, they are all like old-fashioned and elegant oil paintings. And the characters are like oil paintings, they use noble and old-fashioned to decorate themselves, and they are more dirty and cowardly than roadside farmers under the mask. Therefore, although the plot is obscure, it is worthwhile to appreciate the elegant...

Mr. Neville: Four garments and a ladder do not lead us to a corpse.
Mrs. Talmann: Mr. Neville, I said nothing about a corpse.
[pretending to accuse Mr. Neville of murder]
Mr. Talmann: More than a witness, Mr. Neville - an accessory to misadventure.
Mrs. Talmann: I will stay dressed, Mr. Neville; you will not.
