Some bean friends commented that this film is more suitable for presentation in the form of a book, and I agree.
The whole film is 3 hours, subtle and profound. While watching the movie, the person on my left had an even snoring sound after a while; the person on the right had a faint perfume smell, which was a very special fragrance. It smells quiet but with a hint of sweetness, and the gut instinct in my head tells me that this perfume should be blue, that quiet and dreamy blue.
After the screening, I probably learned from the comments of others that there were definitely not a few people who fell asleep and swiped their mobile phones in the middle. The most intuitive result is this, and it is difficult for most audiences to maintain patience and interest in such a presentation.
But can you judge his quality and value? can not.
Whether it is the depth of the story or the beauty and texture, the film has done a good job, especially the discussion on topics such as religion, atheism, faith and crime makes this Turkish film not only suitable for those who know Turkey, but also for those who do not. People of Turkey and its religion to think. But this part turned out to be the most hypnotic part of the whole film.
At the end of the show, some people jokingly called this part: "Three Children's Debate Day".
At least for me, who was stupid and didn't know much about Islam, the discussion among the three was too fast-paced. If you don't keep up at first, the long debates that follow can be confusing, like bending over to pick up a pen in math class. At that time, I was anxious and happy, and I wanted to keep up with the rhythm of the three, because I had never heard the debate between the old and the new within the church. As an atheist, it is hard not to wonder what they think of themselves, as the church's actions have been controversial for a long time. And there is no better way for onlookers to see how they view themselves than a debate. You can see what they value and what they despise just by looking at the weapons they attack and defend. So I am very sad that this is not a book, let me slowly figure out.
At this point, I think of "entertainment to death". Neil Postman said that television cannot convey philosophy, and this film is probably a good example of that. The very nature of this medium makes it difficult for something truly profound and complex to be communicated.
Interestingly, the male protagonist in the story is a writer, and a "hopelessly romantic" writer. Some Douyou said that this is the director's "autobiography", saying that the male protagonist Sinan is actually the incarnation of the director Ceylon himself. Then this is a movie called "Wild Pear Tree" that revolves around the book "Wild Pear Tree", but this movie is more suitable to be written directly into a book called "Wild Pear Tree". It would be acceptable to say that all this obscurity and subtlety is for romance.
