The first screening day of the 20th #Faro IslandFilm Festival# brings you "War Fire", please see the evaluation of the people of the front line involved in the war!
Fruit trees:
The structure is simple and rude, but fortunately the kernel is complete. Each character has a somewhat abstract sense of generality, but the whole film successfully presents a humane light.
Bao Song:
The idea of making a war movie with a storybook concept is novel, the first Rossellini. I like the first story the most, probably because they misunderstood the Italian girl. After reading the third story, I feel sad about the first story.
Morning:
A few small stories that happened in the process of the Allied troops moving up from Sicily to northern Italy. The background of the war effectively led them. The change of their relationship is inseparable from this background. Each story is a model for the relationship between ordinary characters. Not imposing characters, not stereotypes, not manipulating stories, not exaggerating emotions, but their realism and the practical significance behind them are very important. I think this is also another understanding of home and country. I hold this land in my arms, My eyes see so many trivial things that are easily annihilated.
Not Here:
Sophistication in the war, each story has a different perspective, so it doesn't feel like a good comparison. My personal favorite is the fourth story, the most wordless and choppy when crossing the battlefield.
Midnight no one:
Very vivid portrayal of the rear of the wartime, the group portraits are extremely successful, and the right balance between "realism" and "drama" is maintained. Get out of the trap and move your perspective down. What is always boiling outside of gunfire and fighting is true humanity.
Matsuno Somatsu:
It starts with the United States and Italy as enemies, and ends when the United States and Italy cooperate to deal with the German army. The theme of friends is gradually sublimating. I like the three direct and unrelated parts in the middle, the black soldier being stolen, the American soldier and prostitute. Lover/family.
SONGMJ23:
In addition to the "intentionally constructed shots" that make up the story itself, Rossellini's interspersed historical scenes may also exist as an "intentional" design, aiming to highlight the multi-faceted reality and the complexity of human nature. This in-depth discussion and experiment on whether there is some kind of "mutual birth" relationship between images and reality is a major source of the neorealist movement's ability to continuously produce various realistic poems with different styles.
FranzCamus:
Six stories make up an Italian World War II Ukiyo-e. Six stories depicting the troubled lives of ordinary Italians during World War II. Six stories that do not describe the brutal battle from the frontal battlefield. It just expresses Rossellini's elegy for the whole society from different aspects. There are displaced people, women who are forced to stand on the streets because of their lives, guerrillas who oppose fascism with lofty ideals, and monks who still long for God in a remote corner. All are victims of cruel wars. It gave me an immediate sense of seeing Bai Xianyong's novel "Taipei People". Italian neorealist film masterpiece.
Poem to Edlin:
The six stories are one side of the situation, the gestures in reality at that time are documentary, and the emotional implementation is also full of drama, succession and regret. Compared with Visconti's "The Earth is Fluctuating", Rossellini's work seems to be more able to evoke an experience. How can it be? The problem of applying the neorealist grammar more naturally (laughs).
#FIFF20#DAY1 will be released later, so stay tuned!
