"Scorched Earth" super 140 word film review

This kind of (which?) film is unavoidable and dull, but the airtight posture is very uncomfortable - it can't be called a high pole or a classic, but it is like a heavy pillar, where the pestle is, anyone can Can't even move. Behind/under the power is the cultural vein. The composition of civilization is inclusive of all things, even the dark, harsh and indifferent side of humanity. Came to a peaceful sea of ​​culture? No, it's just a very observational and meticulous picture in the director's hands, with a very clear context and distinct layers. There are too many seas of tranquility like this in the world. The whole film can't be called heartwarming, the rhythm is gentle, and the transmission of values ​​is not ambitious. I can't tell which kind of dullness it belongs to. But it can be seen that under the influence of the director's color, this film is a very barrier-free microscope-like cultural observation film. High-scoring bean friends don’t have to be complacent, and those who appreciate powerlessness don’t have to care about contempt from the other side. The interesting thing about civilization is that observation is only one part of it.

    Recently, I have become more and more fond of watching the works nominated for the annual best foreign language film, and there are many excellent works. The ending is a little weak, but overall very good!

    "Silence is all truth. And the best thing is to be together." Three nights, falling asleep several times in the middle, but the story is always fascinating. About war, religion, killing, faith. How tangled and twisted this woman's life has been. It's too important to watch the spoiler without being cheap before watching the movie, and the thrill of opening Gu at the end is quite shocking.

I want no gravestone, nor my name engraved anywhere. No epitaph for those who don't keep their promises. To Jeanne and Simon: Childhood is a knife stuck in your throat. It can't be easily removed. Jeanne, Mr Lebel will give you an envelope. The envelope is for your father. Find him, and give it to him. Simon, the notary will give you an envelope... The envelope is for your brother. Find him, and give him the envelope. When the envelopes have been delivered you will be given a letter. The silence will be broken, a promise kept, and you can place a stone on my grave and on it engrave my name in the sun.
