for ballet

It is another movie that I watched after watching the Winter Olympics figure skating. The last one was Yuzuru Hanyu's "Onmyoji". Neither of these two movies impressed me very much, but the music of the movie is really good, and I got to know Kyogen because of the movie. Master Nomura Mansai and ballet superstar Lereyev have a huge difference in temperament, one is soft in the East, the other is rebellious in the West, but both have left an immortal mark in their artistic...

On June 15, the Shanghai Film Festival opened. The opening film "Yabai" has not been released so far due to "technical reasons".

The biggest highlight of the film festival is the extra screening of "White Crow"

The rare white crow to describe the rebellious ballet legend Rudolf...

He has to do this alone.

I haven't seen such an era background and subject matter before, and I think it's quite rare. The Soviet Union during the Cold War, defected ballet dancers. The colors of reality are as bright as candy, while memories are presented in cool black and white: a poor childhood, howling wind and snow, and the mother's beautiful eyes are unforgettable. A lot of facial close-ups, the subtle shift of the focus of the picture is very delicate, from the right eye to the left eye, from the face to the...

The four-stage eight-part biographical film is also so good-looking

Feelings about this film probably stemmed from the resonance with the protagonist’s growth process. Regardless of his bad temper, Relyyev spent his days with a group of sisters and mother in the family because of his father’s military service when he was young. Perhaps because of this, I was impressed by the various postures of women. After a theater observation, he embarked on the road of dance and incorporated the beauty of women into the performance, creating a new style of dance for male...

[Film Review] The White Crow (2018) 6.9/10

If you have absolutely no idea of ​​who Rudolf Nureyev (1938-1993) is, like as not, your immediate reaction after watching UK thespian Ralph Fiennes' third directorial feature THE WHITE CROW would be what monstrosity of a man he is, whose arrogance is simply up to eleven, which appreciably dents audience's empathy towards the subject, that could be a sticking point for a biopic. Nureyev (played by dancer Oleg Ivenko in his star-making role) is one of the most distinguished male ballet...

The three lines are still a bit messy, but the picture is so beautiful, and the close-up of the dance and muscle lines is really nice! ! The male protagonist is really...

I haven't seen such a retro literary film for a long time, and ralph has improved. The script is david hare, as if the characters are painted romantically in a baroque...

2019177 Parallel narrative, but the editing points are weird. Ralph Fiennes has great acting skills, but his directing skills are still lacking.

I remember a story about a Soviet-era composer who composed a very famous piece and played it all over the Soviet Union, which the Soviet authorities always thought was a compliment to the country. It wasn't until after the composer defected to the West that he declared to the world that the piece was precisely hate, not...

1. Such a rebellious and talented Nureyev jumped out of a crack in the stone. From the childhood description of nearly one-third of the film, I didn't see anything. Second, the conquest of Paris. It only took a one-minute "dancer" without any premise to exchange for the overwhelming cheers of the Paris audience, which was not very convincing. Is it not good for the male protagonist in the sandbox to recall "how did I form" while performing? Third, the teacher Pushkin's rendering is not enough,...
