A friend once asked me why I couldn't understand some movies. I said, "understand" can be divided into many kinds. Many movies are not based on conventional narratives. This is like literature. A poem will be in the form of a narrative essay or manual to write? But you can still understand what the poem is about. I got this experience from Tarkovsky's film and book "Sculpting Time". Laota's last movie, the imagery and music are still wonderful, but it is indeed old and exhausted. The process of watching it is like watching a poorly translated DVD, and the words are always incomprehensible, exaggerated or excessive. The contribution of Bergman's team is really great, especially the performance and photography. Watching the documentary about "Sacrifice", you can see that Bergman's old actors and old photographers have always tried to understand the dying film master with sympathetic eyes. It takes a lot of courage and sacrifice to make a movie for this type of artist whose collaborators are the most lovable and respectable people. In the end, the old pagoda still did not put it down completely. Throughout his life, in Taoist terms, he was too promising. He always wanted to be the top of the mountain, but refused to be the valley. Burning, looking forward, like a sacrifice, a suffering. Sokolov and Bella Tarr are his wonderful legacy, where I saw a stream, a deep valley. 8.5 points/10

Even though Laota did not die in his homeland, his posthumous works resonated deeply with the vast land. Its "apocalyptic consciousness" is extremely realistic.

One of the most ingenious and complex films of the old tower, full of prayer and love, when we shun all the miracles in life due to loneliness, the wind of the Holy Spirit blows, awakening and resurrecting us, we will one day become a tree The luxuriant flowers and trees, when that day comes, ask the fire to burn up the space of illusion that imprisoned the soul, let us hug tightly and never be separated again.
