What kind of movie is "Roma" directed by Alfonso Cuaron, one of Mexico's "Three Heroes"? Judging from the awards alone, this unique black-and-white film handed over a "chaotic and charming" transcript: The 75th Venice Film Festival: The Golden Lion Award in the main competition unit. The 76th Golden Globe Awards: Best Director, Best Foreign Language Film. The 91st Academy Awards: Best Director, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Cinematography. The 72nd BAFTA: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Non-English Language Film, Best Cinematography. ... If you count the countless nominations (Roma alone accounts for ten Oscar nominations), the artistic value of "Roma" is even more important than Tarzan. This film reflects the social background of Mexico around the 1970s with the experience of a family. Some people will see or think of familiar scenes from the film, which may be the reason why this film cannot be released in the mainland. I like the shooting skills of this film, the restraint and precise scheduling of the picture, so that each frame has an epic sense. The black-and-white film's picture is extraordinarily quiet, and the slow rhythm is extraordinarily similar to the human nature in the film. Although this film won Best Director, Best Foreign Language Film, and Best Cinematography at this year's Oscars, it did not create the miracle of winning Best Picture and Best Foreign Language Film at the same time. It's a pity to think about it. - Tribute to women!

    "Rome" is private, but it still captures the grandeur of the times. Although some of the plot is suspicious of soap operas, but under the brilliance of its coherent and accessible image, this Caron's personal letter shines with epic light, and it may be the pinnacle of Caron's director's career. The fate of the heroine Cleo is a silent testimony to the changes of the Mexican era. With the absence of male characters, the film shrouds the aura of feminism. Interpreting an extremely important moment in one's life from such an affectionate perspective and thinking about the important people who have crossed one's life may be the ultimate dream of every director. As Caron said: "90% of the scenes in the movie come from my memory, some are direct, some are circuitous, but they are all about the era that shaped me, or the era that shaped Mexico, which is exactly Mexico’s long history. The starting point of the changes of the times."

    If it is not a memory, you can add more, but you can only stop here. Black and white images, precise movements, neat space, objective perspective, everything makes the past so clear, even the real emotion will become "fabricated", it is too clear, political past (intuitive "collision") and private memory (fuzzy) The "bubble") failed to achieve better reconciliation, and was still biased towards the sensibility dominated by reason, which was strong enough but not viscous enough.
