I watched this Godard's business card in the archives, and the seats were full. My friends and I sat in the last row, watching people's heads move. With the development of the film, everyone started whispering to each other, the reason is obvious, and they do not understand.
The place where I live is a film and television park. Most of the people are entrepreneurs in film and television. The people who come to visit this archive must be the same group of people. It is precisely this part of the audience who are more likely to be misled by the film and fail to grasp the core intention of the movie - what kind of plot and what kind of character relationship should the dialogue here promote? What does this lens language mean to the director? How does this character contribute to the core idea...
In my opinion, this film expresses the failure of language. When the most important means of communication between people, language, becomes unreliable, what kind of life will a beautiful woman experience.
First of all, more than 80% of the film's time is spent on dialogue, and after careful analysis, it will be found that most of the dialogues between these characters are inexplicable and incomprehensible. I can't express my feelings accurately. When it comes to the pain point, I can only repeat - there are two very unnatural repetitions in the film.
"What's it about you? What's it about you? What's it about you? What's it about you? What's it about you? What's it about you?"
"Don't do that, Nana."
In the middle of the conversation between Nana and the old man who met by chance in the restaurant, he directly pointed out the main point - the effect of language, about lies and incomprehensible words. Interestingly, even in this dialogue that expresses the central idea, the two are still talking to themselves most of the time. Language also fails here.
Second, the sound. There are several sudden silences in the film, sometimes even while the characters or narrator are still speaking. That's when Sora's lips move, the subtitles tell us what she's talking about, but there's no sound at all. The analogy of aphasia and aphasia.
In the end, the soundtrack is an impressive little repetition, with this melancholy piece of music popping up every now and then. Except for the other two places where the songs appearing in the scene in the film are used as the scene soundtrack, this excerpt is the only soundtrack of the film, there is no change from the beginning to the end, and there is no gradual progress. This also implies that Nana's situation has not changed from beginning to end. In this world where language is invalid, her ending has been doomed from the beginning.
The rhythm of this film is very stable, and it tells Nana's helpless and depressing life. Because there are so many passages of dialogue, we have appreciated Godard's various interesting ways of handling dialogue scenes, in addition to positive and negative fights, among which are very groundbreaking.
The most impressive thing is that Nana stood up and measured her height with her hands. She was so innocent and cute that it almost overflowed the screen. In the future, I will also make a movie with this feeling for the girl I like.
