The movie is not as exciting as his life, but it is worth watching, and the way of drinking absinthe in it is quite impressive.
Rimbaud practiced witchcraft, known as "language alchemy". In fact, he didn't practice much at all. Maybe because he was born too beautiful, the muse gave him everything directly. He is just the son of a country shrew. He started writing poetry at the age of 14, and his shot was the peak. At the age of 15, he wrote the most famous "Vowels" and "Drunken Boat". At the time when French poetry was at its peak, he rose resolutely and practiced Baudelaire. Said "symphony of sensations" of dreams.
He is the Nietzsche in poetry, poetry has been broken by him, he destroys everything, and every word of his can achieve transcendence if he wishes. He and Verlaine's Gaoji became a model for the poet's homosexuality. They drank absinthe every day. Later, they had a conflict. Verlaine shot Rimbaud, but fortunately only injured Rimbaud's hand. Verlaine was accused by Rimbaud and imprisoned. But since then, Rimbaud seems to have really died, and went to hell, writing a collection of poems "A Season of Hell" - "Why on earth do we have to live in this world? To endure indescribable suffering, to experience" A Season of Hell'" "I was sent to hell by the rainbow, happiness was my disaster, my confession and my maggots: my life is so vast that it cannot be dedicated to power and beauty alone." (I don't really understand. In his poems, he wrote poems in Latin and French, saying that he had discovered the secret of vowels. In short, he was psychic with some senses and rhythms, and it was estimated that he would use analytical philosophy to break it.)
He was 19 at the time, and has since closed his pen. I can't understand his seal pen the most. He really doesn't write poems anymore. He was born to write poems. He was able to psychic every word without any hard training. How can man overcome his natural attributes? How can temperance be so absolute?
Absent from poetry for the second half of his life, he lived by destroying his own flesh, left France, he traveled to southern Europe, northern Europe, Asia, Africa, worked as a mercenary in the Netherlands and the United States (all quickly deserted), colonial overseer, coffee exporter Businessman, arms smuggler (once rich), photojournalist, exploration team... Finally, at the age of 37, he killed himself.
I always thought that after the age of 19 he had a lot of wonderful poetry living in his mind, he just didn't write it, he banned writing in a way that destroyed his body. His world goes beyond poetry!
