Cold war

1. Let’s talk about the advantages first. The music is still good, whether it's the heroine's voice or the performance of the troupe; the dance is also good, with a strong national style. The movie screen is black and white. There is no impressive picture, except for a pair of male and female protagonists embracing on the street. At this time, the female protagonist is dressed very maturely, with shoulder-length wavy curly hair, pinned to the slanted bangs, elegant and gloomy.

2. Speaking of the storyline, the emotional line lacks convincing. As a 24-year-old semi-rational young woman who has had a love experience, she believes that this kind of love at first sight, which comes violently and quickly, is too weak in reality; secondly, the description of the relationship between two people is too thin and jumps After everything has passed, it has directly reached the stage where men and women do not recognize each other, and they are constantly entangled in love, hurting each other hard, and doing anything for each other.

3. Finally, talk about the background and tone of the story - with the Cold War as the background, the tone of the story is somber, not a drama, but not too tragic. Stalin, socialism, Poland, France, etc., can also feel the atmosphere of the 1950s. For those who like history or such movies with a sense of time, it is a good viewing experience.

    The black and white photography of #BIFF# 4:3 is beautiful. A minimalist, fragmented approach to a long-span, Cold War-era love story that runs through the music. There is a small passage in the film that composes the soundtrack of the film, which can be regarded as a metaphor for the methodology of the whole film: all emotions and stories are integrated into the music (locality is in folk songs, freedom is in Free Jazz, the infiltration of propaganda, the translation of folk songs into The clumsiness after French is expressed through music).

    Some so-called film critics should stop copying Brody, okay?
