Marcelo and his wife complement each other perfectly, precisely because of their willingness to degenerate before marriage - the husband indulges in the temptation of the old driver, the wife lingers on the sexual desire of the bad uncle...

If there is any metaphor worth pointing out here, it is the powerlessness and self-degeneration of the weak in the presence of the strong. However, when the "strong" side collapses, when Marcelo becomes a middle-aged man, the forced side It should be counterattack, isn't it?

    With high expectations and completely exceeding expectations, such a movie viewing experience will never be seen several times in a lifetime. Everything is so beautiful, the photography, the rhythm, the atmosphere, the music, so beautiful that I can't speak, and at one point I almost cried because of the beauty. Bertolucci + Storaro, really a treasure of gold. Closing and opening windows, the swing of light and shade, the displacement of upstream and downstream. If you want to sink into the seats in Hall 2 of Shanghai Cinema forever, you don't have to look back.

The Conformist quotes

  • Marcello: I'm going to build a life that's normal. I'm marrying a petty bourgeoise.

    Confessor: Then she must be a fine girl.

    Giulia: Speak out. Go ahead.

    Marcello: Mediocre. A mound of petty ideas. Full of petty ambitions. She's all bed and kitchen.

  • Confessor: The one thing you have to do is repent and humbly ask His pardon today.

    Marcello: I've already repented. I want to be excused by society. Yes. I want to confess today the sin I'll commit tomorrow. One sin atones for another. It is the price I must pay society. And I shall pay it.
