old story

#flyingmovie# Motherless Brooklyn There are two cities I've never been to, but have become very familiar with through countless movies – New York and Hong Kong. This movie is about New York in the 50's. The director patiently and meticulously made an Old School story in a very Old School way. Edward Norton, who subconsciously or consciously shouted IF countless times, is still too melancholy and elegant, the little black girl who was sexually harassed in the workplace in the Morning Show is brave in the sunshine of Brooklyn, and Bruce Willis and the gay brother in The Good Wife, for the sake of Alec Baldwin, the younger brother of the ideal burial power, still maintains the original intention of the older brother Willem Dafoe. Every shot is so clean and clear, the composition reminds me of a famous postmodern painting or any American comic pulled from the shelf, and the soundtrack is restrained and appropriate. This is a movie that I didn't fast-forward and didn't check online for reviews, it's a movie that I can understand without special effects, and it's a movie that allows me to stay in the past for a while. . . (Seeing the ending subtitles, it turns out that the director is Norton himself)

  • Lionel Essrog: Here lies Frank Minna. Cool as can be. They'll carve that on his fuckin' tombstone.
