The circular "family history" all say that "Sisters of Hannah" is Allen's masterpiece at its peak, and it is also said that it is a complicated "modern urban family history". If you look into it carefully, the background is really amazing, just like the Chinese people love Zhao Benshan, New Yorkers also love Allen so much. In "Sisters of Hannah", everyone is full of neuroticism, suffering from gains and losses, hysterical, and absurd as a shackle to the soul. In the process of watching the movie, what reminded me for a while was the floating wooden stakes on the coast, like a hard shell of spirit floating on top of a magnificent sounding; while the truth of life is still buried in the deep water, unknown. . The process of watching "Sisters of Hannah" made me feel that Allen's movie is so attractive for the first time. Those middle-class intellectuals, who are nervous and sensitive, live in the world in a cautious manner, just like a mirror in Allen's heart, showing people from the front, but bearing the darkness on the back. Allen used the silent film method to split "Sisters of Hannah". The opera passages interspersed in the film are an excellent rendering of the serious subject behind a kind of black humor, which is indeed an excellent contrast. Therefore, as in reality, human life is not destined to be as elegant and solemn as opera. In the film, the two couples tried to conceive through the sperm of their friends because they couldn't have children. The conception of this stage overlaps with many images quite interestingly. I saw the shadows of Ou Rong's "The Dead Time" and Wang Xiaoshuai's "Left and Right", and a short film called "Ladybird" by Dindu Ballas. Looking at the structure of "Sisters of Hannah", it is like this: the opening is a group of people gathering together, and then one by one, they break up, fork, and move away, until finally they are tied together again in a balanced way, forming a "he—" Divide-close circular structure. And this structure is absolutely different from Hollywood’s "reunion" ending, but a neurotic operating table with unique Woody Allen temperament, using the lens to study the clusters of scattered nerves, sometimes too collapsed, sometimes It's too shy, but it has to be tied together after all. Come to think of it, the structure of "Sisters of Hannah" is really similar to Assayas's "Summer Time". It is also a gathering that echoes the beginning and the end, and the theme of the story is also a variation of the same color.
