No Equality, No "Square": Promote the Idea of Equality
Without the idea of equality, and unequal "square" cannot be built.
The film The Square (2017) promotes the idea of equality, so it explains what the "square" is several times: within the square is a sanctuary of love and trust, and within its boundaries, we share equal rights and obligations. Obviously, "square" is to build an equal world, but it is the idea of equality, that is, those true ideas, thoughts, and behaviors of equality that are deeply...

Agree with what someone in the comments said, the film itself is the kind of thing he wants to satirize. To be reasonable, I didn't see anything particularly profound, but some embarrassing scenes made me laugh many times. For example, in various scenes involving installation art, when the curator faced questions from reporters, he did not remember the meaning of a certain sentence he once published, but he was still talking nonsense. People often don't know what to do themselves, but they...

Pride gave you the mask of pride
It's clear that the film is satirizing something and it's when such satire is commonplace that it makes the square take on a different meaning
First of all, square introduces a concept, although it is about art or something elegant blahblahblah, but in fact you and I both understand that square represents an equal relationship of mutual care and help, but from the very beginning, the people who distributed the flyers began to subvert "do you want to save a life?" A lot Everyone walks...

Elitism? Politically correct? No, we need borders
Obviously, this is not a movie that analyzes mass culture. Western elites satirized themselves with the help of modern art, satirized the so-called political correctness, and satirized our fragmented culture.
The overall style of the film is gloomy and depressing. It seems that everyone in it is under great pressure. From the moment the male protagonist first appeared, he could feel that he was nervous and didn't trust anyone. But the irony is that the exhibition The Square he planned...

The demolition of the hero statue and the establishment of a square square symbolizing freedom and democracy are self-evident political connotations. Take advantage of several moral dilemmas faced by elite curators (in terms of text), conversations about sexual morality with friends, video apologies to poor boys, and reporters’ questions about the upper limit of free speech (Is self-censorship an elite joke? ), which fully explores the boundaries of free speech and political correctness and...

A social horror movie, the tension at the banquet was as good as any thriller from the past...

Even the Palme d'Or at Cannes is completely unlovable. Northern Europe is still too developed, and I feel that there is no major social contradiction other than political...

Putting an entire era into one movie, everyone is like an object in an art museum, watching and being watched happen at the same time, what is the difference between a poor complacent human world and a lipstick-smeared orangutan. People who still explore the language of film are almost extinct. This is what European films should look...

Half a good movie. Later, not only the plot but also the rhythm started to get out of control. Being a Palme d'Or is a bit overrated. In some places, the director's irony and depth are somewhat like Roy Anderson, but the control and rhythm are far less than him. And Tony Erdman seems to have set off this year's European absurd comedy boom, unfortunately, I can't like...

The teasing and bantering of the elite, the savage climax scene is vigorous and powerful. I just suddenly felt that I didn't seem to have any movies about the middle class that could be put on the stage, and all the nouveau...
Christian: The Square is a sanctuary of trust and caring. Within it we all share equal rights and obligations.
Christian: If you place an object in a museum does that make this object a piece of art?
Christian: OK if I ditch Comic Sans? Find something less childish?
Michael: I didn't pick it. It's a 90s all-time favourite
Christian: Now it won't look like a kid's birthday party invitation. After all, it is a threat.
