The sixth Mike Lee. Peaceful, undisturbed. Most of the biographical films are like this, but I still like Uncle Spo very much. He actually spent two years learning to paint for the role, and he deserves the best actor in the 67th Cannes. In the first half of the 19th century, the British academic painter John Turner was full of creative passion all his life. "Even before dying, he struggled to get up and copy a female corpse." "He likes to observe natural scenes during travel, and even asks others to Tie yourself to a boat to watch a storm." I like the artist's rolling clouds and ships series, as well as the tiny elephant in "Hannibal Crossing the Alps", which has a unique and surging aesthetic. color. Turner was deeply immersed in art all his life, disregarding his family and children, and even finally staying away from the housemaid "girl" who lived with him every day and took care of him, and the landlady, who met by chance, lived a quiet and far-reaching life, until the last moment of his life, talking in his mouth. There is only the word "girl". There is a strong contrast between the artist's turbulent heart and dull and dull appearance. His love life and artistic pursuit are also half sea and half flame. Just like the painter's controversial paintings at that time, the personality and soul of the painter are also arbitrarily commented by later generations. , those worldly winds and smokes and market scrolls are already in the past, only Yunjuanyunshu, the sunset and the rising sun, quietly stayed in the long river of time to shine. The photography of the film is beautiful and timeless, and it is integrated with Mr. Turner's oil paintings. It is like a moving gallery, which quietly plays the vastness of nature and the lonely world in these two hours.
