I finished watching "May Blue Clouds" in a drowsy state last night, and before opening "The Far Place", I was ready to be dull to the end. To my surprise, this always gray film made me unable to sleep in the middle of the night.

It said in the movie, "You want to make a movie like Tarkovsky", but I saw a bit of Kieslovsky's taste in it, like the first article in "The Ten Commandments", the winter's The cold and gloom linger all the time.

In my opinion, the film whose English name is "distant" should be translated as "distance" more appropriately. Although there is no lack of interpretation of the concept of distance in the film, the feeling of alienation between people is the film’s Main melody.

It just so happens that the two male protagonists are also the two leading actors in "May Blue Sky", and the two characters in the movie are also in the same line as May. The younger brother finally escaped from the poor hometown and came to the coveted Istanbul, waiting for him He seems to be the same as his brother said, "It is not easy to live in Istanbul." As mentioned earlier, the interpersonal distance is the core of the film, and the distance between the two male protagonists is always within easy reach from the first night of meeting. Excessive verbal stimulus from Xiangjingrubin was accompanied by his brother’s ex-wife’s long journey. Perhaps this made the ice-like brother more hard-hearted.

In the movie, Ceylon used the brothers’ different attitudes towards relatives, voyeurism, toys, pocket watches, and mice to make the characters continuously three-dimensional, and the reason was also expressed through the mouth of his younger brother-"What has the city made you become?" But how can the younger brother know what the elder brother who drove the smart from coming to Istanbul without a person to live in a high-end apartment?

Ceylon's photography needless to say, it is definitely a master in modern and contemporary film circles. What impressed me the most was that when my brother eavesdropped on his brother’s phone call, the two people turned on and off through the frosted glass, as if the two worlds of Yin and Yang. My brother was a little bit lonely in the backlight, while the embarrassed brother was full of hope for the future in the light. , This is a completely opposite expression of the relationship between the two. Ceylon’s stop-motion shots also gave the two protagonists ample room to play. In a large number of close-ups and close-ups, the viewer and the viewer merged into one, and the emotions of the characters spewed out and flooded me. In the final push In the camera, the brother sitting on the bench by the sea allows the cold wind and smoke to blow on him, his melancholy face seems to contain all kinds of amorous feelings, what has the steel torrent urban beast changed?
