Zabriskie Point

"Hippie culture" in the eyes of an Italian

When the male protagonist takes off on a plane, you can feel the young man's enthusiasm for breaking through everything and yearning for freedom. Like Jack Nicholson in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" carrying a carload of "mentally ill" out of the madhouse... yes, this was the America of that era, and it was Antonioni's America. After converging into this "Zabriskie Point": so real and powerful, just like the sentence "Mark" answered "Dalia" in the play: "I needed to get off the...

Once upon a time there was a young man and he died

In 1970, Michelangelo Antonioni was 58 years old.
The directors of the movies I watched recently are all very personal. The 58-year-old Antonioni made a very youthful work. The male protagonist who did not quite agree with the original intention of the student movement was involved in a violent incident and was stolen on the way to escape. On a private plane, he met a girl and made love, and was finally killed by the police. The story is over, what does the director want to say? Is it...

Marx rolls on a donkey in the desert

Italian director Antonioni is a "master of world cinema". Although young people rarely watch his films, his status is unshakable.

It is true that he is a master, but it does not mean that each of his works is a master. Today's "Infinite Spring on the Dangerous Peak" is a failed work.

Looking at this once avant-garde and radical film with today's eyes is a bit ridiculous. The film has little storytelling, with Antonioni's usual looseness. A boy, a left-wing radical youth,...

Explosion under pressure

First of all, the Amway software CorelWinDVD reads CDs. After experimenting for a long time, I found that this software is very nice to watch CDs!

Although nothing has happened recently, I still feel depressed, so I bought the disc of this film to watch...

The following may be a little spoiler. The heroine and the hero meet and fall in love ideally under the stimulation of hormones. But there is no way, absurd reality will always destroy...

Wave bye-bye to an era

With the final scene of Zabriskie Point, Michelangelo Antonioni made film

history. The main character Daria drives away from the villa into the desert.

Fantasy is overheating. Daria stops, gets out, and looks back angrily at this

stronghold of consumerism and commerce, now engulfed in a ball of fire.

Then the villa reappears and the spectacle repeats itself over and over again.

The visual effect is very good, especially the part where the two people linger in the desert is very beautiful, I won't say anything about the plot. . . Four stars are really friendly points. ....

A fate almost all masters can't avoid: when he starts talking about politics, he falls off the altar and exposes his limitations. Aside from the explosions at the end of the film and the spectacular ambiguity between the canyons, Antonioni's left is almost like an angry youth in China, and indeed, as some critics say, "lost his credibility." More and more I find that politics and art are two completely different fields, and art that touches politics emotionally without pondering is neither...

The plot is indeed "out of print and fresh". But the beautiful desert gangbang and the great ending, and the unforgettable explosion elevate the whole film to a...
