I want to say a few words.
Many years ago he had a very gorgeous film called "Vera Drake".
Another year wraps up his gorgeous comeback.
I have seen the spring, summer, autumn and winter of the Korean logo director Kim Ki-duk.
The narrative style is very similar, and they are all master-level directors.
After Jin Ji-deok entered the realm of violent aesthetics, he suddenly turned around and came to the spring, summer, autumn and winter of meditation and enlightenment.
The picture is indescribably beautiful.
McLee used another way to express his attitude towards life.
Quiet and trivial bland. A detailed and refined life.
Like water, bit by bit.
Start with the gloomy female patient, Imelda, the acting school.
Mary reminds me of Ouyang Feng in East Evil and West Poison.
Life made her reject everything and everything in desperation.
The two old people are very loving. After being together for a lifetime, they will never give up.
Pastoral cultivation, those bright red tomatoes, green beans.
And hugs. A lifetime of hugs. The years are safe and the sunset is quiet.
McLee is very good at this style of story. People around you, things around you.
Small and sophisticated.
The photography is very good, there are almost no skills, just the advancement of long and short shots. The sense of light can be grasped very well.
McLee's films are all about loneliness with an almost brutal silence.
It is about sadness but not hurt, leisure but not resentment.
Not optimistic, not pessimistic. Faintly put the truth of life in front of the camera.
Probably the life of each of us is like this, returning to plain.
Quietly face the joys and sorrows of separation and reunion. Quietly waiting for the persistence in my heart.
