"Eternity and One Day" (1998 An Zhe) is a long-shot textbook and a film about philosophizing "time". The "long shot" here is first of all a long shot with "rhythm", that is to say, in the long shot, whether it is the body language of the characters in the middle of the picture or the architecture of the space, there is "rhythm" and "sense of structure". Such as the dance of the newlyweds, the poetry of the poet, the condolences of the children and so on. The "long shot" here is followed by a narrative account of the plot. For example, the scheduling of the long shot and the mirror completes the bridge section of the restaurant children fleeing when they see the police. Thinking about the issue of "time" actually takes one day to stitch together the "elements" of the hero's entire life, such as marriage and love, artistic pursuits, poets studied, growth history, etc. The practice of one day, not only used this time in the film, but also used the short time on the bus to examine his love and artistic thinking when he was young, his understanding of revolution, music, poetry, etc. , all condensed into a single ride.
