The 7th screening day of the main competition unit of the 15th #faroeislandfilmfestival will bring you "Jean Dillman". Let's see the evaluation of the front-line housewives, although they only have three days, but they are like a lifetime!

I know a little about her:

Chantal Ackerman is a great genius.

SONGMJ23:

Essentially an image of time.

George:

May the good times never fade away and beautiful people will always be beautiful.

Jeremy Sun:

More than three hours is the epitome of Jeanne Dierman's trivial life, and I sat in front of the screen and watched it. The process of watching such a movie is torturous, and the only expectation is the final curtain: is it a catharsis or an explosion? In what way?

Mozart Lumso:

The emotions brewed little by little for three and a half hours and finally reached a peak. All the boredom and the desire to break through the regular frame of the screen emerged and burst into silence. The boring and tedious three and a half hours made the emotions on and off the screen reach a consensus, and the audience had empathy with the film without rendering and sensationalism.

Matsuno Somatsu:

I watched it while I was eating. My mother told me not to watch movies when I had dinner, because I watched movies like crazy throughout the winter vacation. She said this a few times. The difference between the heroine and my mother is that my mother has hobbies and does not know I buy every day and eat for a few days at a time, so I have time and work, but it is very free and easy. People like the heroine always feel that there are many rural areas.

Mimi:

The first time I watched a Chantal Ackerman movie, I was stunned throughout the entire viewing process. Full of questions, did she study behavioral science? How can this be? It's terrible. Her details are so terrible that they can't even hold a towel. I hate to use that word to describe the movie, because that word has all kinds of interpretations. Matriarchy, "the curse of the inescapable gene".

Ps: 1. Ackerman is really talented. 2. Dephine Seliger's textbook-level acting.

Mishima travels at sea:

I thought the silence would overflow, but it was unexpectedly deep. The presentation of the previous images is similar to naturalistic literature, and the stillness is at its extreme. The arrangement mode of the giant Vlog will make it difficult for many audiences, but from the trickle of 200 minutes, we can watch the vast ocean, the ocean of women standing and falling. Jeanne is more than Jeanne, her every fold, set, clean, tap, turn on, turn off the light is a daily epic for countless women as wife, daughter and mother. We need to release enough female emotions and temperament to empathize with them, to empathize with the undercurrent triggered by that pot of overcooked potatoes, to experience a "degeneration" from "everyday" to "abnormal", and to understand her breathing How heavy is it.

Dazhao:

There are two kinds of subjectivity in movies, one is the subjectivity of the characters, the other is the subjectivity of the director, and this work is the latter. From the selection of the camera position, a slight low angle shot upwards. At first glance, I think the camera is a camera, but the feeling behind it is still the audience's perspective. Not only fixed long shots, but the repeated switching of lights and the approach of the body (lower body) to the shots will give the audience a "sense of compulsion". The director only edits the busy part. What kind of emotions can you feel when a dynamic person is in a fixed shot? I think the oppression, depression, and irritability that the audience feels are the "empathy" that the director uses in the form of film. This kind of reflection is not sincere, and it can't move me. It's the same reason that I don't like FIRST's "Love Poem". It is better to watch "The Horse of Turin" if you spend more time. Beratar's depression is rich and sincere.

We Min Hee:

Ackerman said that her work should not be understood in terms of feminism. From this alone, it is feasible. The biggest feeling of the whole film is the concept of routine. On the first day, the heroine's "behavior" was flawless. In the absence of dramatic conflict, the character's actions were so dense that there was no time to stop at all, and the character was "doing things" all the time. The next day, starting from forgetting the potatoes, the routine was destroyed by a small accident. From then on, the character could no longer find his "calm". When the time that could be stagnant was obtained due to the change of the plan, the character was restless. On the third day, it became a "physical comedy" from the time of dressing. The character changed from a "perfect housewife" to almost everything went wrong, everything went wrong, and the first day was orderly. Also, doing chores most of the time is like doing it with muscle memory.

Pincent:

Cai Mingliang said that still shots are more convenient to express the passage of time. Maybe the viewing process is unbearable, but maybe the details of life are boring, and women lose their right to choose. movie of. Women are trapped between the kitchen and the living room every day. Jeanne has no choice in entering this state. She repeatedly reminds her son not to eat or read books, and repeatedly brush the same pair of shoes. This repetition is not to create waste information, but must be communicated to the audience. The rare outdoor footage shows a woman being ridiculed by a passerby man alone in a phone booth, and a little boy with a bag next to him repeatedly bullies a little girl with a bag while walking. The son expresses a kind of confusion about the relationship between men and women, both as a hope that things might get better in the future, and as a small seed for Jeanne, until the sexual dissatisfaction finally erupts. Perhaps for women, they can neither look down nor look up, and the equal gaze with the camera position is the most appropriate.

Midnight no one:

In front of men, she is a "woman" who sells sexual tools, in front of her son, she is a "mother" who acts as a placebo for the soul. Using undisturbed daily portrayals to dissect such a "she" that is no different, to find out where her "self" is from all the sides that have been presented. Is there really any more? Can you shed it alone? Even the time to make a cup of coffee will rekindle the enthusiasm for excellence. When you really sit down and sit down, you can't help but get up and wipe things again. The speed of time can replace a lifetime in a huge silence. A short-lived joy just becomes a long-term numbness. In the hustle and bustle of doing nothing but not stopping for a moment, she no longer belongs to herself, or this is the best version of herself she can adapt to. Just keep turning and consuming it, that's your destination, like a competent machine; even the outburst of killing at the end can be regarded as a sudden failure, it will definitely be settled without caring, this cruelty That's her situation.

The main competition publication of DAY7 will be released later, please wait and see.

Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du commerce, 1080 Bruxelles quotes

  • Sylvain Dielman: [Referring to his friend Yan] He bought a book that explains lots of things about climaxes and orgasms. He says we should be interested in women at our age, but he doesn't want some young girl. He says a man's penis is like a sword. The deeper you thrust it in, the better. But I thought, "A sword hurts." He said, "True, but it's like fire." But then where's the pleasure?

    Jeanne Dielman: There's no point talking about these things.

    Sylvain Dielman: He's the one who told me everything when I was 10. I said, "What? Dad does that to Mom?" I hated Dad for months after that, and I wanted to die. When he died, I thought it was punishment from God. Now I don't even believe in God anymore. Yan also said it wasn't just to make babies. So I started having nightmares so you'd stay with me at night and Dad wouldn't have a chance to thrust inside you.

    Jeanne Dielman: You shouldn't have worried. It's late. I'm turning out he light.

  • [repeated lines]

    Jeanne Dielman: Did you wash your hands?
