In fact, this is a very twisted movie, especially the little boy Ivan as the hero, who is so fucking twisting the child, from the beginning to the end, this is a movie that makes you restless, people to watch Please be mentally prepared. Photography is like a landscape film. After reading this, I believe that the clouds in the Soviet oil paintings are really like this? I always have this feeling when watching European movies. Those oil paintings I have seen before, those coasts, clouds, forests, sailboats, all really exist! Oil paintings seem to be able to keep a certain distance from you, but movies always push these naked and fiercely in front of you.
The father, who had run away from home for many years, came back and took his two children on vacation for the first time. The three people who were strangers to each other turned the whole journey into a battle for patriarchy. I found that patriarchy has actually been lost in the United States. While American fathers are constantly reducing their responsibilities to their children, they are also losing the original influence of patriarchy. Many children rely on government student loans to go to college. , the father is not available, and of course you have no right to talk about the child's lifestyle or employment orientation, so in American films, it has been a long time since I saw such a thing as patriarchy. But in the East, or to be more precise, including the former socialist countries, patriarchy still tries to play a certain role in the growth of children, so most of our fathers here beat people, he thinks he has this right, even if Everyone just met and didn't know each other. At first I thought this movie was about this...
But as the plot progressed, I slowly smelled another smell, the kind that only belongs to a country that has just been divided, that kind of smell A taste unique to the people who have just tasted what the aftermath of the labor pains of division is like. Father is like a country. When you think you need him, he is often not there. As soon as he comes back, he tells you what you can and cannot do. He often threatens you that you have no right to choose, but he also protects you. , teach you how to survive in this harsh world, if finally one day, you can break free like the twisted child in the film, you will be able to feel the bitter freedom and the huge emptiness at the same time.
The disintegration of patriarchy is like the separation of Soviet sovereignty. Decades of friendship and grievances between various small countries are reflected in the struggles of fathers and sons along the way. Some small countries are obedient, while others are inherently rebellious. The desire to be loved, the desire to be valued, and the desire to be free are often intertwined.
That's what the director wanted to say, so I disagree with the Venice Film Festival's comment, even though they awarded the Golden Lion to director Andrei Zujakinsev, saying: "A film about love , an indescribable but irresistible film of loss and growth", which is one-sided.
Andrei Zuyakinsev also won the best debut or new director award at many film festivals with this film. Critics are keen to explore how the film was deeply influenced by Tarkovsky. This shot of the poster screen It's the proof, and the little boy is also called Ivan. Photography Mirkaye Kritchman is a typical Russian photographer, whose strength is the incomparably rough texture and rich layers.
The most funny is the American "Entertainment Weekly": "This is an excellent psychological thriller" ※％※…×￥#
Americans are really cute~~
