"Walking in the Clouds"

Garth 2022-04-19 09:01:51

A retro nostalgic journey, a legendary journey of pursuit, with the rhythm of the peculiar style, the rhythm is slack like a rope. Meticulous narration and preparation paved the way, accumulated practice turned into instinct, caring cooperation triggered motivation, conforming to the inner paranoia, making that cold steel frame also exudes "life".
The beginning of taking the first step, as the steel cable condensed a little bit of movement, it was constantly involved in shaking.
The first walk is shocking and surprising;
the second walk is attractive and satisfying;
the third walk is mischievous and enjoyable;
the fourth walk is unique and gratifying;
the fifth...sixth...sacred and Feelings again;
until the end, the end of the three steps, completed the obsession, leaving the audience's respect.
The former twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York also have another special meaning,
for "tightrope walkers"--Philippe Petit

    Perhaps because expectations were too high, he felt that he was not enough for an inspiring biographical film, more like an elegy to the Twin Towers of New York when ISIS was raging.

    Seeing Phillipe kneeling down on the steel cable was instantly knocked down by a sudden sense of sacredness, tears fell down, and the close-up of the twin towers at the end brought sadness even more unspeakable. Must see IMAX 3D

The Walk quotes

  • Papa Rudy: Most wire walkers, they die when they arrive. They think they have arrived... But they are still on the wire. If you have three steps to do, and if you do those steps arrogantly... if you think you are invincible... You are going to die!

  • Philippe Petit: [atop the south tower for the first time] I find myself standing on an island floating in mid-air... at the edge of the void. And of course, I automatically look at the opposite tower. But now, I had to dare... to look... Down. Now I know what the void is. I'm a wire-walker. The void is my domain. But not this void. But somehow I gather the strength to whisper, whisper so the demons won't hear. It's impossible... But I'll do it.
