Abbas' name had been whispered long, long ago, but it wasn't until that day that the story of the art and construction of his sculptures really touched the soul. Without a certain amount of perseverance, the 2 hour journey of the whole story that Abbas told us would not be possible. "The Lover Under the Olive Tree" is another work from 1994. The films born in that year have always been approved and praised by the public to a certain extent, regardless of whether they are independent or...

A year ago or more, Bobo said this was his favorite movie of his life. One and a half hours of narrative, and the remaining ten minutes of writing sharply.
The story is slow. The slowness made me feel unbearable, it took a lot of time to digest and absorb, and I saved a lot of energy to continue watching. However, the dialogue, and the director's constant cut shots.
There are only two white dots left in the whole world, twinkling and twinkling. Men catch up with women.
Slow...

Under a tree on the top of the
mountain ,
Huang Qiufeng
did not have a house and asked for a marriage. Her grandmother was realistic.
Marriage after the earthquake, life after death.
I want to find a literate woman to marry, and I don't want my descendants to be illiterate.
When I was an actor, I really fell in love with the heroine and pursued it, but was rejected.
"The scholar should marry the illiterate, the rich should marry the poor, that's the best way",...

Today, we talk about the concept of "poetic montage", leaving aside the former Soviet films of the ancestors, and talking about Japanese and Iranian films. Continue the Iranian film talking about Abbas, continue Abbas talking about the last scene in his Lover under the Olive Tree. The specific point of discussion is whether this shot is a close-up or a long shot. According to the classification of film language, it is clear that this is an absolute long shot, but according to Abbas himself,...

There was always wind, such a strong wind.
At the beginning of the film, in a vacant lot surrounded by sparsely grown trees, the director of the play within the play, his assistant, and the group of girls. The trees swayed violently in the wind, and the director's gray hair fluttered in the wind, as did the headscarves of his assistants and the girls. Everything in the horizon seems to be gray, including the sky, including the trees, including the wind (if the wind has color...

Realities of different dimensions interact with each other, and at that time there was a sense of indifference in the flow, which was manifested by the description of love under the olive tree at this time. The rhythm between layers of texts that is intuitive and can penetrate all is undoubtedly emotion. In the "story" of the hometown trilogy, the movie really changed lives, and this is Abbas' unparalleled...

9.0/10. ①The various experiences and conversations of a crew who came to a mountain village to make a movie, and the illiterate and poor men in the crew (the hero in the play) took advantage of the filming opportunity to pursue the rich and well-educated women (the heroine in the play). ②The same "plain poetry" as "Where is My Friend's Home" (the flaws are the same), specifically: use plain image texture + real-life shooting + natural light, a lot of deep focus lenses and long lenses,...

The last classic long shot that can be written into a textbook, a suffocating green, the two white dots are getting closer and closer on the screen, and finally meet and stop, the brisk music is played, and the two white dots are separated in opposite directions , The poor boy's pursuit finally opened the silent girl's heart. After the earthquake, we no longer have any difference. Although he is illiterate, he may be the most romantic poet in the...

Still can't stand the annoying chatter in Abbas' films, but the last long shot under the olive tree is like a gardenia blooming in my heart this rainy...

Slowness is poetic and sad, whether it is a flowing car window or a mirror image of a movie, reality and story are intertwined and even gradually blur the boundaries, from the conversation we feel the color of...
Hossein: Mam, I'm really sorry. I want to do everything you ask me, but I won't do masonry. I don't work in construction anymore. I came to act in your film. I will work as an actor, but not as a mason.
