This movie is not the most famous among Antonioni's other films, but I have seen it the most.
It is very interesting and beautiful when dealing with the separation and indifference between a couple who has no love. It is worth borrowing when encountering similar couples breaking up scenes.
The wife left the site of her husband's book club alone and came to the poor alley where she had lived, where she felt physically and mentally happy.
The dilapidated house, the clock where time stopped, the young people fighting...all made her feel the existence and reality of life.
Watching the rocket, the proprietress of the small cold drink stand (introducing cheap hotels), how simple and happy.
The husband went home alone and woke up alone in the semi-dim light of the evening.
The two went to the strip club. The separated, conceptual erotic performance makes people feel false and distant. Although the dance is good, it seems to have nothing to do with anyone.
The people in PARTY are more like a group of wandering souls at night, the luxurious mansion of Lanruo Temple in the daytime, and enjoyment at night, and everything will cease to exist at dawn.
Monica Witty is undoubtedly the greatest beauty! Her voice will appear a little hoarse in the high pitch, with a faint smoking and alcoholic voice. And speaking in a low voice is very low and sweet.
It's dawn in Witty's room. Witty turned off the light and turned into a silhouette.
The couple strolled on the lawn... During that period, I really didn't know what would happen.
The appearance of the love letter seemed a little abrupt, but at that time something really needed to change something...breaking the state of the two at that time. The text on the love letter was so beautiful that I immediately forgot about the abruptness of the letter.
Except for that letter, I can't think of any other circumstances that would cause the last two to kiss each other.
The beauty of the picture and composition can't be recorded one by one. Antonioni always puts women in the right place and puts the right light on... Didn't see the unbeautiful woman in his picture, amazing!
Pull it farther, after watching this movie, I think of the recent comedy story that feels boring. Even if it’s a story that feels boring at the thought of that, there are actually many areas that can be designed, such as the separation between husband and wife, indifference, marriage breakdown, women’s minds, men’s attitudes, scenes, pictures...There is no bad story, only bad. movie of! (Reminiscent of the comedy scene at the Fellini Ball) Designing with great effort will always turn into a good-looking movie, even a boring popcorn comedy.

    I especially like the rain scene in this movie. It’s a stroke of genius, and it’s a slap in the face. It’s the beauty of the breeze in the bamboo forest. I remember writing a film review when I was in college. It's very comfortable and beautiful. I saw this movie again today, and I saw her say quietly, I didn't think about anything, just waiting for an idea to come out. There were no constraints in the previous movies, and all the techniques were like the rain falling from the sky, making everything look good and sound.

    Surrounded by crowded crowds and images of standing cities, people fall into a state of troubled helplessness. Antonioni's space is full of expansion and erosion, as if the modern social situation is trying to strip people's emotions away. The dazzling modern life is to develop material enjoyment to the extreme, leaving only the desolation of the heart. This separation of spirit and flesh, the exclusion and oppression of the inner world by the outer space, form an extremely contradictory state of the characters. Antonioni's characters are always looking for something, and although the result is mostly nothing, this search emotion always spreads in the film. The answer is nonexistent. Just like the missing girlfriend in "Adventures" and Godot in "Waiting for Godot", they are all dilemmas that modern people cannot get out of.
