Disparity, disparity really

I went to watch this film after being warmed up by the movie channel's interpretation of the film. The strong people of the movie channel explained a lot about the director, actors and background of the story, especially the explanation of the name of the film, which is very wonderful. He also commented that this is a group play. It seems that unrelated events are connected together, but in fact there is a strong causal relationship between them, which shows the director's ability to control such a complex whole story... .

After watching the film, I have to say that their commentary is more exciting than the film itself, as they explained, this film is one of the director's "Gap Trilogy", and my opinion of the film is the same as theirs There is a huge gap!

The three stories that are not very good, because the big things are connected together, they become an excellent group show. If the connection of the story in the film is completely cut off, will it affect the effect of the whole story? Shouldn't, at least I don't see what these connections do? It's all about connecting for the sake of connecting, maybe the director wanted to make three movies at the time, but for various reasons, each of them was not finished, so he had an idea and pieced the three stories together, wow, what a grandiose look A group scene!

If I hadn't read their explanations in advance and understood the allusions of the Babel Tower, this film would have been... Even if it touches the bible and leans on the tree of the "Division Trilogy", what this film wants to express is as straightforward and shallow as his name, and as far-fetched and obscure as his content. gap? Is this estrangement? ? Where is the gap here? ? ?

Language barriers are barriers; racial differences are barriers. These are barriers that high-level people see in the film. It is undeniable that this is indeed a barrier. If they don’t speak the same language, they are separated; some people can speak and some are dumb, and they are separated; if they don’t know their nationality, they are separated. "The Trilogy of Separation" sounds like a very deep title, but after watching the film, it doesn't bring people to think about what caused the estrangement, and why did it burst out? Why does it die, why does it die? Simply saying that this is the estrangement? The estrangement should not refer to paying attention to these superficial things, but more importantly, it should be the excavation of the estrangement in the inner world. It seems that the director has no interest in this aspect, so after the whole story is told, it is as light as a glass of water. There is no smell left.

However, after the screening of the film, the views on this film can explain the existence of estrangement more and make people think. Search the tower of Babel, and the articles come to you: "The Ultimate Period of Human estrangement", "The Trilogy of Conflict" "The Gorgeous Ending of "Babel Tower" achieves the perfect swan song", "The ultimate work of the "Barrier Trilogy", "High Starting Point, Big Scene, True Feelings"..., have I been isolated from the world for too long? Some people think the film is good, which is not surprising, radish and cabbage, personal opinions are different, but it is incomprehensible to shout so exaggeratedly. Sometimes I really want to see what the truth is. Do they really think so? Hehe, it seems that the director is still quite powerful. The film itself may only be an introduction. The reaction of all parties after the film is broadcast may be what the director really wants to express. Maybe the reactions of all parties also have credit for the director's work behind the scenes, including this film. The award-winning, well, the film is relatively successful, after all, the estrangement can be interpreted so thoroughly through things outside the film!
