I remember discussing an issue once, I said that a good book cannot be turned into a movie, just like a good movie cannot be turned into a book. For the latter, I didn't find an example at the time, but now I have - "Bad Blood".
French director Alexis' 1986 work. The director is known as "the melancholy low-yield master" and has only made 4 movies in 20 years. Except for "Lovers in the New Bridge", the rest of them have lost money.
This is a seemingly complicated story, but in fact it cannot be called a story at all. A boy, hesitating and hesitating between two different types of women, but Alex interprets it very beautifully. The interweaving of black-and-white images and color images, partial close-ups, and various film elements are used to the extreme. Later, I had forgotten what the film was talking about. Originally, the plot of the film was never the most important thing for me.
In the end, it was a film made with huge sums of money, as well as high-altitude skydiving and other scenes, which are full of brilliant romanticism. The editing is very Godard's style, the strange thing is that Godard is so poor, Alex has been losing money, where does the money come from...
It is said that the movie fell asleep when it was released in Shanghai, why didn't I catch up, otherwise It must be better to watch it in the cinema. I always feel that beauty should be and will be appreciated and liked. Alex is probably because of his belief in beauty, so he insists on it all the time.
