Water sometimes returns to the river

European-style humanities, natural and elegant and subtle, at the same time provincial, too plain and boring.

So I'm allowed to not be old, as long as I don't wanna be young.

A series of character identities are highly consistent with real identities, and the instructions overlap each other. Assayas has laid out a complex metaphoric network before the start of the drama; drama and (movie) reality, between movie (reality) and the real world , the blurred boundaries were also erased by the director, leaving behind ambiguous reflections and intertexts.

Just like the glass mirrors that fold the real space in the theater of the final act, Sigrid shuttles through it, and Helena is left and trapped in the image; it is also like the melody of Canon reciprocating and circling upwards, the Maloja snake lurking in the mountains . They are a never-ending torrent of time, with ichthyosaurs lurking beneath the skin.

"Helena's a wreck, and we get it. I think they want what comes next." In fact The house remains full and anticipating the stories flooding in and out. For Maria, she can live out of time, every age at once like everyone else. For drama, Valentine Maria and every recursion are poetry.

The faces of everyone in the film are so long and unbearable, the expression changes are very restrained and subtle (except Chloe), maybe that's less is more. The tone of voice is also rich in texture, German, Italian, French, Scandinavian, English, and several American styles are all complete, and it sounds good. I really like how they chew the words differently, with high-level lines (there are always unfamiliar ones. subtle word.jpg), want to repeatedly pull or even back.

Can't tell if I want to be or like someone like Valentine. Casual, with a stretched frame, moderate muscles, full of toughness, curly hair gathered up at will, a firm and clean face, a somewhat ambiguous matte voice, a natural and crisp tone, each pursed lips and holdback added a third to her Fragile, it seems that there is little change, but it is delicate and all-encompassing, how delicate

    The "Snake of Maloya" is really beautiful, the clouds and mists hovering in the mountains, the fairy spirit is peaceful outside, and the undercurrent is surging inside. Like the process of changing the mentality of the protagonist Maria. Above the top of the stars and the moon, but afraid of time variables, how to choose the present, fight or compromise, in fact, in the face of the torrent of time, the boundaries have already been blurred, and reality and delusion can only be blurred. "Snake of Maloya" can't escape the ending of self-appreciation, and begins to prepare to suffer the oblivion of the world

    Theater, film, novel, music, and other literary styles constitute the backbone (representation relationship) of the film, so let's call it a meta-literary film. Assayas came at his fingertips. Both the play and the play within the play revolve around two actresses, but the attention is all taken away by Binoche's assistant, who is not only beautiful and fashionable, but the only normal woman in it, she doesn't take on the drama - she's reflexive , abruptly left the scene in the middle, mocking the hollow life world of other characters.

Clouds of Sils Maria quotes

  • Christopher Giles: Tastes can get worn out, kind of like desire.

  • Maria Enders: [Referring to the proposed role of Helena] Time's gone by and she can't accept it. Me neither, I guess.

    Klaus Diesterweg: There is no antagonism. It's the attraction of two women with the same wound. Sigrid and Helena are one and the same person. One and the same person. That's what the play's about. And because you were Sigrid, only you can be Helena now.

    Maria Enders: How can you be so sure?

    Klaus Diesterweg: You know as well as I do that Wilhelm Melchior had been working on a sequel for years.

    Maria Enders: Yes. But it was about Sigrid at 40 years old.

    Klaus Diesterweg: No, it was about Sigrid 20 years later became Helena.

    Maria Enders: So who's going to play Sigrid?

    Klaus Diesterweg: Jo-Ann Ellis. She did a superhero movie that just opened in the States.

    Maria Enders: And besides that?

    Klaus Diesterweg: Not much. She's 19. She's a lot more interesting that her interviews and profiles. She has a theatrical background. She doesn't want to be swallowed up by Hollywood. She admires you and is willing to pull out of her other commitments.

    Maria Enders: I'll listen carefully. But to be honest, the role scares me. Helena scares me. I'm in the middle of a divorce. I feel alone, and vulnerable. Probably too vulnerable to do this.

    Klaus Diesterweg: If you refuse, I'll understand, but it will be a missed opportunity, especially for Wilhelm.

    Maria Enders: I should get going.

    Klaus Diesterweg: Excuse me, but I won't be staying for dinner. Good evening madam.

    Maria Enders: Klaus, I have another reason. Susan Rosenberg. She played Helena with me.

    Klaus Diesterweg: I remember Susan Rosenberg.

    Maria Enders: She died in a car accident a year after. It's a superstition; I've always associated her death with Helena's suicide.

    Klaus Diesterweg: She was a lousy actress who didn't understand a thing about the role. And her conventional style of acting highlighted the modernity of your performance. You should be grateful to her.
