Today, I saw Polanski's new work "I accuse".
Before watching the movie, I expected that the protagonist of this movie should be Zola. When I was still in middle school, I read some French novels. In my impression, I have only read a few short stories about Zola. In some of the text notes, I learned that he had come forward to sue a wronged military officer and caused a stir in France. Therefore, it is considered the conscience of the literary world.
Unexpectedly, in this movie, Zola only appeared in a few scenes. The real protagonist is another officer. He ran around for this unjust case, even if he was behind bars.
The case is not complicated. The protagonist is also not very comprehensive (for example, he has an affair with his friend's wife). The film focuses on those in power who obstruct the truth. How familiar are we with those guanguan guarding routines. Including their public appearances and cover-ups. For these people, power is truth. They don't know what an apology is.
The art, photography, props are all great, and the "painting-like effect" is produced. Sure enough, as in the legend, Polanski had a clear ambition and was aggrieved by his Jewish identity. However, this is presented very directly in the film, not euphemistically. As for his use of this film to vindicate his own scandal, I'm not quite sure. At least, I haven't seen any footage of young girls.
However, I have to say a few words about the shortcomings of this film. That is, the lines go round and round, making people dizzy. There are too many modifiers in the lines, I don't know if this is good French or depends on French. Even the arrest process is polite and calm. This is French, but not realistic. Where is it like other countries, slam the door directly and "check the water meter".
Also, a digression. Afraid to forget. Today, chatting with a classmate from middle school. She immigrated. I haven't seen her for years and I still feel like she's "our person". That intimacy has not changed at all.
Many people say that if you have foreign nationality, you are not Chinese. I don't see it that way. Regarding the definition of "Chinese", anthropologists, historians or sociologists will explain to us: to define this definition, we must look at it from a cultural level. It has nothing to do with blood or nationality. Those who are interested in arguing with me for this can go and find out about the nationality of Nurhaci or Sun Wen.
