Garden Il giardino dei Finzi Contini (1970) This
film won the Golden Bear at the 21st Berlin Film Festival in 1971 prize.
The film tells about the love of a childhood sweetheart Italian man and woman under fascist rule. The protagonist is a Jewish nobleman from Ferrara, Italy, who grew up together. Ten years later, the heroine opened her home garden and let the hero and his friends play together. After the hero and heroine meet, they think of the past, which makes the hero want to be with the heroine, but the heroine doesn't like it. At this time, the Italian government gradually promulgated laws and began to impose various restrictions on the Jews, and the heroes and heroines, their families and friends began to live in terror. After a while, the situation is getting worse and worse, and the actor's brother is going to France to study at university. In this way, after the actor sent his brother away, he went to France to visit him. After returning to Italy, the heroine still rejected the actor, and at the same time his friend was about to join the army. After seeing off his friends, the actor unexpectedly discovered that the heroine was lying on the bed naked with his friends, which made the actor completely desperate and never interacted with the heroine again. A few days later, the heroine's ill brother passed away, and the hero only secretly waited and watched in the dark. In the end, the fascists came to capture the Jews, and everyone was gathered together, while the hero and a few others escaped.
The plot of this movie is simple and clichéd. In fact, the other name of the movie is the same-the miserable youth-has shown the content of the film, isn't it about how "tragic" it is! There are already many "tragic" stories in this film in the world's movies, and there is really no need to repeat them. Of course, I look at this movie from the perspective of the 21st century, or it looked novel in the 1970s, just after the end of World War II.
In any case, let's talk about the theme of the movie. Through a simple love story of a man and a woman, the film depicts the experience of the Jewish aristocrats in Italy in the early stage of World War II, and shows the process of the Jewish aristocrats' gradual oppression and persecution. It is a very "main theme" movie. It is also another film that accuses Nazis and fascists of crimes. It makes me so boring... so I won't say much about this film.
As for the love in the film, it is also very funny in my opinion: it is normal for a woman to find new feelings and new stimuli. Why should the pain of the hero be described so severely? Even if this is a kind of love, it may happen in the real world.
The picture of this movie is more beautiful, creating a luxurious and gorgeous, which makes me can't believe that this is Italy before World War II. Are they so rich? Isn't Italy very poor? Especially the gorgeous decorations and beautiful gardens in the film are impressive, and I can't help but sigh-it's great to have money! In addition, other aspects of the film are relatively ordinary, basically telling the story step by step, and there is nothing unique.
Among the actors, only the heroine Dominique Sanda is impressive because she is beautiful. But why do Jews still have blond hair? really weird. Although other male actors are also very handsome, they are too creamy and lack masculinity. Italian men have such a type. All in all, the actors in this film are so-so, even though they look very young.
in conclusion. This is a painless anti-fascist film. The plot is not good and the theme is not deep enough. It is just a cliché art film that shows history and reflects reality.
