people lost in luxury

?The 21st movie "City of Absolute Beauty" The protagonist Jab is an old man who is approaching his twilight years. He once wrote a very famous novel when he was young, and he never wrote it again after that. He was trapped in the city all his life, when he was obsessed with fame and fortune every night, his soul was empty. The introspection of today's prosperity fades away, but self-deception, reminiscing about the past life, emotion is eternal. A lively summer, a beautiful city that cannot be described in words, a story that seems absurd but has deep meaning, scenes of life and death, intertwined with nothingness and reality. Colorful, life is full of expressions! People taste despair in loneliness, and feel lost in amnesia. This beautiful Rome is like an old man going into his old age! The lines in the movie that impressed me most were: "We are all on the verge of despair, all we can do is look after each other, be with each other, and joke around"

    Photography, music, and camera sense are all good, but the form outweighs the content—writing, glitz, life, everything is discussed, but it seems that nothing is explained thoroughly. Art is thought-provoking with its natural incomprehension, not a deliberately drowsy incomprehension.

    So lucky to see it in theaters today. It's beyond words, but for two and a half hours, I was completely sucked into the screen. “Italian cinema is the best”

The Great Beauty quotes

  • Jep Gambardella: The trains at our parties are the best in Rome. They're the best cause they go nowhere.

  • Jep Gambardella: The most important thing I discovered a few days after turning 65 is that I can't waste any more time doing things I don't want to do.
