tragedy of life

1

This film is not only the posthumous work of Louis Mahler, but also a masterpiece of the original theater director.

In a nearly forgotten theater in New York, the classics with so many big names played together. The result they achieved was almost the expression of what Chekov had sought throughout his life, the complexity of life, but as pure as life itself.

It is indeed pure from the rehearsal to...

Every one of his movies is his best movie

On the surface, it seems that the Mahler people return to their basics and use minimalist lenses throughout the year. It seems that any master has similar tendencies and states in his later years. Actually I don't think so. The key to Mahler's ability to be called a film master rather than a film author lies in his practice of film language rather than his retelling of film meaning. For example, when he wanted to tell the story of Chekhov's "Uncle Wanya", he first thought of how to tell the...

Lonely Chekov

　　No wonder some people blame modern man for its depravity. This play by Chekov is really subtle and mean to the surface of modern people's romantic, ambiguous, and deep-seated malaise and incompetence. The movie "Vania at 42nd Street" adapted from this script is also in place. The actors are also well matched. Except the actor who played Uncle Vanya was not as gentleman as I thought.
　　
　　The best is Sofia, very pure and strong. It's just that there is a line that is a bit cruel,...

"Vania at 42nd Street" by Louis Mahler

It can't be said that this is an excellent "movie", its charm lies in Chekhov's excellent drama script and the actors' in-depth and passionate performances. In his last work, Louis Mahler almost gave up all film skills, simply used close-up shots to record the entire drama that took place on the stage, and successfully presented the stage performance in the form of a film. Through expressive close-up shots, the audience can go deeper into the inner world of the characters and experience the...

In this dramatic posthumous work, Louis Mahler created a psychedelic life experience, which cannot be summed up by the phrase "life is like a play", and its form is far more complicated than the previous ones. single expression. In fact, the structure of the play-in-play used in the film, the rehearsal scene and the rehearsal, and the movie audience and the movie content together create a chain reaction of thought-provoking...
