In my eyes, Antonioni's work has several major principles:
first of all , the structure is beautiful, interlocking, clear. There are some unexpected events echoing (that propeller is a good example).
Then, the story is strong. The whole thing is clearly stated by him (at least see Seems like so).
Then, after reading it, I was at a loss, it wasn't that there was anything I didn't understand, but that I didn't understand anything, that I didn't know anything.
Although this 24-hour story, the actions of the characters, the plot The development is complete. And it is very simple and clear.
However, the result is that I can't understand anything.
Of course, you can say that this is a fake B. So when I just read it, I can't comment.
But when I try to think about it, I realize. This movie is indeed a good movie.
You say I want to understand something, sorry, nothing. You say I really don't understand something. I'm sorry ,
neither.
There is no feeling of being completely overwhelmed after reading it, and feeling that it is a waste of time.
I always feel that I have got something. But I don't know what it is.
I can't comment on the subtlety. It is
naturally boring and naive.
Next. This is the personal rant part I like:
the Yardbirds jimmy page and jeff beck's story The
track is stroll on.
The time is 1966. It disintegrates two years later. The
jimmy page already has a little led zeppelin feel. The strumming feeling has come out.
The funny thing is that this year. jeff beck got fired.
Then, after Beck left, the band changed a lot. There should be such a few people in succession, robert plant.john bonham.john paul jones (I don't know who came first), so led zeppelin appeared like this.
Quite a legendary time. Recorded in this movie It can be seen as an era of music, a small mark from blues rock to heavy metal.
Miles Davis, the ubiquitous god-like black
herbie hancock, completed the music except yardbirds. And in 1966 , he was mixing under miles davis. And this time. It was in the middle of two incredible heights that kind of blue and bitches brew represented. Their band was called second great quintet at the time. I don't know how to say it, anyway , those things of Bill Evans' tune. It seems that there are a lot of them. But at the same time, there are some bebop things mixed in. In short, it sounds quite miles davis.
MOD or HIPPIES
In 1964, bob dylan went to the UK, Then everyone in the beatles saw this horrible character who overdose on drugs and vomited at any time. Then one by one they started to grow hair, take drugs, study strange religions, let their wives and outsiders fuck, etc. The popularity changed quite quickly. In the movie, no The ubiquitous silk tops, marijuana, Nepal, etc., all represent the complete past of the era of MOD. Hippie has become the mainstream culture of the middle class at that time. From a historical point of view, the decline of MOD in 1966 is also very significant.
But the protagonist It is a MOD. Leather shoes, trousers, hairstyles are all. The
reasons are as follows:
Las babas del diablo (Las armas secretas, 1959) This is the original novel of blow up, 1959. At that time, it was still a period of prosperity for MOD.
Therefore, there will be only the protagonist MOD. And everyone else has evolved to HIPPIS.
