Tango Soul

Leif 2022-03-22 09:02:44

The first seven-and-a-half hour movie in my life.

Like a deep and captivating vortex of images, spinning slowly and uninterruptedly, it sucks me into the dreamy and hallucinatory world it has created.

A masterpiece that completely immerses the whole body and soul without reservation.

Clear and cold, timeless and vast. Deconstruction and reconstruction, images of breathing.

Through Beratar's discreet eyes, we gaze upon a highly abstract, spiritually externalized world.

Poets, wise men, and philosophers condensed their thinking on crowd society, abandoning the narrative logic of succession and transformation, and the human apocalypse that goes straight to the essence of life.

    Satan Tango, the dance steps of the devil, the first six steps, the last six steps, cycle back and forth; seven and a half hours, twelve chapters, the first six chapters, the last six chapters, beginning and ending. The first six chapters are slow, meticulous and fascinating, from different angles and different processes, telling the story of a farm day and night, which are connected like a jigsaw puzzle and criss-cross like a spider web; in the last six chapters, the narrative unfolds, With rapid progress, leftist scams, and the collapse of communism, everyone has become a stranger in their homeland. The structure is like a miracle, it is a perfect long shot, with poetic narration and soundtrack. The rain is torrential, and the thunder is fierce.

    A 450-minute movie. Countless long shots. I really want to know that when the theater was released, lunch was included in the cinema?

Satantango quotes

  • Százados: Not that human life was so highly valued. Keeping order appears to be the business of the authorities, but in fact it's the business of all. Order. Freedom, however, has nothing human. It's something divine, something... our lives are too short for us to know properly. If you're looking for a link, think of Pericles, order and freedom are linked by passion. We have to believe in both, we suffer from both. Both from order and freedom. But human life is meaningful, rich, beautiful and filthy. It links everything. It mistreats freedom only... wasting it, as if it was junk. People don't like freedom, they are afraid of it. The strange thing is there is nothing to fear about freedom... order, on the other hand, can often be frightening.

  • Futaki: I shouldn't drink. When I do I keep thinking of coffins.
