The 4th screening day of the main competition unit of the 7th #Faro IslandFilm Festival# brings you "Pell the Conqueror", and the following brings you the real and cruel evaluation of the frontline pioneers!

Sporadic nameless:

Goodbye to the future.

sparrow:

The future is in the youth.

Sunset:

Classic beauty, neat but not moving enough.

The song is wrong:

Next time we meet, no, can we meet again?

Tonda people:

Am I watching Great Migration 2.0? Where's Liv Ullmann?

Fruit trees:

A sincere epic expression, the flow of time is as chilling as the Nordic air.

Xiaofeng and your waning moon:

Dull and restrained, but even more bland, with a unique Nordic style, it is still about family, about growth, and about resistance.

Faroe Islander:

Great epic, he did not conquer anything, but he conquered my heart, the old are content with the status quo, the young are brave, the snow is white, the American continent is on the other side of the sea, "New World", "The Great Immigrant" study hard , How is it long and slow but not boring.

I know a little about her:

The idyllic scene is like an oil painting, but this seemingly cliché and simple story becomes instantly colorful, and the classical and rich temperament instills a fresh soul into this heavy world. They move forward with each other, work together in a simple life, grow together, and progress together. They are each other's guides, love and understand each other deeply. In the face of constant slander and doubt, if you can't change other people's thoughts, then try to be your own master. After all, you can conquer everything by conquering yourself.

Pincent:

A very classic film, although it is a Nordic farm in the 19th century, it can also be used as an allegory for immigration or class oppression in other European and American environments. The role of a father is too distressing. The son will one day grow up and realize that his father is old, and his mouth is full of weak promises, and he can't even grasp his own happiness. On the contrary, the son has a kind of self-abuse. Whenever he is oppressed, he will inevitably erupt. Growth does not depend on self-control. If he can't beat others, he will use bold self-abuse to win the way of fighting against life. There is a chance to get out. Photography is not bad, it's not a Nordic style painting composition photography.

Quit the smoke:

This one collided with the fifth edition... But it is equivalent to the grand "Great Immigrant" and "New World" two parts, this one seems to be a lot of hands and feet, trying to render a "miserable" word, but seems to have forgotten The real brilliance of that bit of humanity. The whole film does not reveal the word "miserable" for a minute from the beginning to the end, so that all the emotions of the audience are mobilized to express sympathy for the various characters: the protagonist's father and son's environmental conditions are poor, miserable! The male master is looking for flowers and willows everywhere, even his own niece is not spared, miserable! The boy was bullied from the beginning to the end by other children in the school, miserable! Trying to create an atmosphere can only make the whole film look miserable and miserable, and many places are about to be distorted. (Especially the captain who had been missing for a year suddenly came back, and I really rolled my eyes in that place) This also makes the rendering of emotions in other parts of the film seem petty and unsympathetic, relying solely on the sad soundtrack to force the audience into the mood . But I have to admit that the film is indeed impressive in two places. The first is the person who first awakened and wanted to resist the farmer, but was hit in the head by a stone and turned into a fool. He clearly felt that hope was about to appear, and it would be extinguished for you in an instant. If it weren't for him, how could the boy know that the distance is better? Too bad he can't be found anymore. The second is the handling of the ending. This is the highlight of the whole film, and it is also the breaking point of the protagonist's father and son's good acting skills. The plot setting of this paragraph reminds me a bit of "Legend of the Leaves". The last two people are getting farther and farther back, lonely and deserted. I don't know where fate will lead them, and I don't know the ill-fated father and son. Will we still meet...

#FIFF7#DAY4's main competition magazine score will be released on the broadcast later, please wait and see.

    Witness the ecology and customs of a Danish farm with a boy's short growth history: young men and women die in love and babies; tenant farmers crippled after class conflicts; heroic wives castrate lecherous husbands. At the end, the boy leaves his father and runs away, which is meaningful, and I am afraid that we will never see each other again in this life.

    [Beijing Film Festival Screening] Seeing Billy August's film for the first time, this is the surprise brought to me by this Beijing Film Festival. A father and son work hard for the farmer, chasing the dream of "drinking coffee in bed", but it is still difficult to see happiness. It is full of the bitterness of the bottom people, and the roles of farmer, wife, foreman and long-term worker are also very vivid. Shows a panorama of a farm. There is some hope in the tragedy. The acting of one old and one young is excellent
