"2046" was a success, because I was in the play

Now watch 2046? Be late! It's all 3046, and the blockbuster is out again!
Actually, I don't like to follow the trend and watch movies. I think a good film can last for a long time, and there is no timeliness. If you don't watch new or outdated movies, you can't watch that kind of movies.
I don't pay attention to whether a movie is a blockbuster, a famous actor, a big publicity or a big production. Maybe it's a comment, a friend's recommendation, or a passing shot that arouses my interest... The film is only good There is no difference between the bad and the old. If you want to see it, just watch it. Maybe I will watch a bunch of films that seem to be disorganized at the same time. There are "City of Glass" in the 1990s, and "Dead Poets Society" in the old days. There are also some seventy-eighty films on this year's Valentine's Day schedule. You say I'm out of date? Nostalgic? European pie? No need to define.
I don't dare to pretend to be a professional, I don't advertise my taste, I just like to watch movies and watch my favorite movies.
And watching a good movie is really very relaxing. After watching "2046", I feel a kind of inner joy and satisfaction. I used to think that watching Wong Kar Wai was just arty and tasteful, but "2046" really made me want to collect.
For some films, the narrative technique chosen is often at odds with the core of the desired representation. Take the few films I have watched recently, such as "Letter from a Strange Woman", "Lover's Knot", etc. They try to tell simple stories as obscure as possible, and play tricks to cover up the poor connotation. While many people said that I couldn't understand "2046", I was very comfortable watching it. I felt that the plot advancement was quite skillful and the filming was very smooth, but it successfully conveyed the connotation that made people sigh and think.
I have been looking for a sentence to describe the relationship between form and connotation. When I was writing "The Lover's Knot", I was looking for an appropriate description when I communicated with people recently. I only felt a little clear after watching "2046" tonight. , after seeing something with contrast, you can really appreciate a kind of difference - the big one, return to the basics.
In "2046", for me, Zhang Ziyi's part is the best. Later Gong Li, and Maggie Cheung, who was a guest star, were somewhat messy. Some people said that they couldn't understand it, which may be partly because of this.
After watching Zhang Ziyi's excellent interpretation of the character, I seriously warned myself that I should try my best to get rid of the habit of making random comments - before I watched the film, I used to disapprove of Zhang Ziyi's honor at the Academy Awards for "2046" , and injustice for Cecilia Cheung. Indeed, before you don't know anything about something, you shouldn't take it for granted and draw conclusions based on established impressions.
After watching the film, I have to admit that Zhang Ziyi in "2046" is really good. The delicate and well-placed performance interprets the complex feelings of the characters and successfully guides the audience into the plot to experience the joys and sorrows of the play.
After watching "2046", I can forget Carina Lau, Gong Li and Maggie Cheung who appeared for less than a minute, and I can even forget Faye Wong's eyes, but Zhang Ziyi will remain in my memory as a specimen of "2046".
Wong Kar Wai succeeded because Zhang Ziyi was in the drama; Zhang Ziyi succeeded because I was in the drama.
In addition to Zhang Ziyi's sadness, I am also amazed that Faye Wong can have such a simple expression. It simply reminds me of the heroine in Qiongyao's films, Brigitte Lin when she was young - mentioning Qiongyao here is not meant to be ironic at all, just to describe a particularly simple feeling. Personally, I feel that in the filming, the clothing and styling should be deliberately leaning in this direction.
This is the first time I've watched a Wang movie in its entirety. In the process of watching the film, I have been unable to control myself to stop and record the lines in it, and then a sentence suddenly entered my heart.
I finally understand why many people repeat the lines in Wong Kar Wai's films, and they relish:
"All memories are damp."
"If the peony is in full bloom, she stands up and leaves, leaving either "yes" or "yes". A non-"No" answer."
"Everyone who goes to 2046 has only one purpose, which is to retrieve lost memories, because nothing will change in 2046, and no one knows if it is true, because no one comes back."
The scene nearing the ending: Zhang Ziyi watched Liang Chaowei count the money through the glass, and counting her was equal to the money she earned from selling her body, that kind of utter sadness, that kind of sad despair.
In the end, she couldn't help but ask: Why can't we be the same as before? Don't go, stay with me tonight.
To give up dignity completely, this is what desperate people are begging for, begging for the last bit of mercy.
However, you need to beg because it is impossible to get.
——He replied that some things are never borrowed.
Seeing this, pantothenic acid in my eyes: why can he be so heartless to her? ?
Maybe, everyone is the same, being cold to some and then hurt by the coldness of others.
He never looked back, as if he was on a long, long train heading for the hazy future in the dark night.

2046 quotes

  • Tak: Do you know what people did in the old days when they had secrets they didn't want to share? They'd climb a moutain, find a tree, carve a hole in it, whisper the secret into the hole and cover it up with mud. That way, nobody else would ever learn the secret...

  • Mr. Wang: Our cabin attendants are superbly designed... But there's only one problem : when they've served on so many long journeys, fatigue begins to set it. For example, they might want to laugh, but the smile would be slow to come. They might want to cry, but the tear wouldn't well up till the next day...
