Cool form, messy core

The cool form and messy core of "The Wind and Wind". An unknown dancer, a group of gloomy teachers, a dance troupe with weird things, a story about religion, feminism and revenge. I didn't have any expectations for this film, but I was still attracted by the thrilling atmosphere created by the movie and the suspenseful points set at the beginning. The works are very characteristic in audiovisual and stylized presentation, so the look and feel is not bad. It can be seen that the director wants to express more levels of content on the basis of this horror film, perhaps because he wants to express too much, so that the story itself, except for the form of expression, appears disorderly, such as Nazis and terrorist attacks. It was mixed and cut in the main line, but it was not unfolded at all, and because it did not have a good connection with the main line story, it appeared to be a lot. It can only be said that the director does have great ambitions, but he is helpless and limited, but the stylized transformation of this type of film is commendable. 5.5 points. Ps: I haven't seen the original work, and I can't compare it. c

    One of the best of the year. No way, I just prefer this kind of formalist work with a strong aesthetic style, because for me film is pure art. A lot of information needs two swipes to clear it up, but I don't hesitate to give my five-star praise first

    There are some shortcomings, but after watching the first dance, I already gave five stars in my heart; the good part is so good, even if you want to deduct points, it will be deducted from 150 points, he'd still outdone himself. The body in motion, object, excess , ecstasy; dialogue game is very not strong (SHOW DONT TELL!); not sure why we need a man's-regret story in this abundance of female energy
