The 71st Venice Film Festival Main Competition Golden Lion Award Roy Anderson
Man: This movie is absolutely amazing. It was made by the genius Roy . No one can understand it. Do you understand that I worship you as a teacher?
Little kid, who do you give "you and yours?" in honorific language, do you understand?
Man: Asi ... come with me this set? Then I'll ask someone else to go!
Ask who? Your teacher, he knows a der... other than three-act, five-act movie shit , what else would they do?
Man: Ha, movie shit... do you think you're funny?
The laughter is different, my terrier, the foreigner, is Gagale ...
Man: I don't care whether it's funny or not, just tell me how this so-called comedy won an award, where is the art?
Say what you think is the most incomprehensible, the most unbelievable ... Speak!
Man: First of all, why does this movie use such a cool tone , fixed camera position , and the camera does not have any technique of pushing, pulling, and panning. The characters in it walk like zombies , and their faces are covered in white ... What do you mean?
Are you done asking...are there any more?
Man: Also, is the big iron pot that burned the slaves a musical instrument? I don't think it's that simple! There are also doors and windows . There are many similar scenes in the film. I feel that there are some hidden thoughts in them...
Well, the " day of the week " at the end of the film is also a problem, right?
Man: Yes, yes, explain it to me, it's too dizzy! Why did the war with the king in World War II in 1943 all appear ? Is it going through the theme, what's the mess?
The Four-Dimensional One Theory, there is no unintelligible movie, no unanswerable question!
Talk!
I said directly, if you understand the beginning and end of the movie, you will understand half of the movie, so let's focus on competing with these two scenes !
The opening chapter is the museum, which displays animal " taxidermy ", birds on branches, and dinosaurs behind... Are these animals all from the same era?
Of course not necessarily, these three birds should all be different generations, there are this century, and the last century...
Man: Oh, I remembered that the characters in the film were also born in various eras, including modern ones, soldiers during World War II, and Charles XII... Is there any connection?
Don't worry, just listen to me...
Go to the museum to see these specimens , knowing that these animals are all dead, why do you still see them? What was the old man thinking about while watching?
Man: According to the postures of these birds, the old man seemed to hear them chirping, imagined singing in the forest , circling, courting ...
Well, but my wife is different, impatiently waiting for the old man to finish reading, guessing that the time is almost up, he turned his head and left, thinking that he had to go to the vegetable market!
After the two left, the camera remained still, and it was still a long shot
Man: Is this an empty mirror ?
No, the old man is gone, the audience should watch, calm down and watch...
In the museum, we are separated by these glass showcases
What do you see, what do you "hear"? To imagine, to analyze, but also to be careful!
The whole film has a lot of glass and wooden doors, windows...pictures, think about what the director wants to express?
Look again at the end of the film ,
The old man came out of the bike shop with a pump
Man: I see someone riding a bike to cheer up. It should be a free cheer day every Wednesday...
The analysis is right, this is the director playing hide and seek!
After that, a few people started arguing about the day of the week. We can't rely on feeling on Wednesday or Thursday, we can only rely on continuous records ...
In other words, history can be recorded not by years , but only by weeks !
Man: That's true, so what?
You have to imagine a museum , don't you just focus on the day of the week? Closed every Monday , okay?
Use your imagination:
Are the characters we see in the film alive? Charles XII or the sailors of World War II,
Almost all the old people in the film have white faces, expressionless faces, and stiff movements, especially these few toy sellers, who are as cold as death ... What the hell are they?
The director is expressing a thought:
These "characters" in the film are specimens!
If it is a specimen, put it in the same museum, is there any problem? It doesn't matter if you're younger, right?
Ours is not a historical story, but a character, a specimen !
We know that when Charles XII lost the battle, homosexuality is OK, and we can imagine their voices and pictures through the " glass window "...
Why is the film almost always so cool , cemetery-like, fixed camera position...
Because our audience has been in the "museum", staring at these "specimen"!
The glass window is both a display case for "specimen" and a reference to our computer and TV screens...
History repeats itself in cycles. Look at this incinerator, one circle represents a week!
What are these soldiers doing?
Concoct history, make specimens!
We are just numb spectators and will never be able to change history...
If our generation were like the old man in the movie staring at the showcase... The Walking Dead!
These "aristocrats" eating melons came out of the "glass door", and the glass door refers to our computer screen or movie screen, you and me behind the camera ... Are we the same as these "specimen"?
Treat the screams of black slaves as music, as culture and civilization...
No distractions, no brains, no change... Human history will always be a "continuous cycle of tragedy"!
Do you think this big tin can is just a musical instrument ?
Man: Yes, there are " horns " on it...
You are only half right,
...it's a "virus"!
sars, new crown and HIV... all the same!
Man: Wow, that's what it is, this idea is amazing!
Black people are stuffed in jars, don't they get revenge ?
Is it possible to escape in such a jar? How can human beings break through the " strange circle " of history?
I just analyzed the " civilization, culture, history" I mentioned , and combined with the " redemption" , " understanding", "sapiens" in the dialogue ... These concepts, I will lead you to find the theme !
Man: Hey, this movie is too complicated, you can understand it if you do it this way!
We have a four-dimensional integrated pull-tab analysis method , don't be afraid... step by step!
After the title, the title "A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence" literally translates into Chinese as "a pigeon sits on a branch and thinks about existence ", which is a pun , and the director is suggesting: see the meaning of life from the "specimen" !
Is "money" the force that drives civilization?
Let's look down...
The first three scenes are directly related to death . The director hinted that the old man in the film has the concept of "walking dead, about to die", similar to " specimen "...
The specimen itself is a representative, a specimen of "Archaeopteryx" represents the whole "Archaeopteryx", so this film only let the old man represent the "specimen", can you understand?
Male: Oh, so the young people in the film are still normal, otherwise it will become a zombie world!
Look at the specimen, mainly to see its posture, that is, body language!
The observer, through imagination and reasoning, tries to figure out what his voice and mental activities are like...
The first three scenes are all about " body language "!
The old man corked the bottle, and his body language was rich and hilarious... At the end, "Pawn", he was so angry that he didn't drink the wine!
The old lady in the hospital bed hugged the bag tightly, and the audience felt the powerful aura of body language . Money is such a good thing!
The second old man spent money to buy wine, so it 's not bad money , right? But still didn't drink it, p...
Another old man, raised his hand, I want that beer...
He didn't spend a penny and drank good wine. This is called " effective socialization ", effective body language, the opposite of " ineffective socialization "!
Note: The concepts mentioned above are quite useful for finding themed ideas, so listen carefully!
Male: yes sir!
The body language of these old people, that is, the "specimen", makes us clearly realize that people are fortune and birds are killed for food, and the wine is tempting...
People's greed is like all kinds of human beings that we think of by observing a "bird" in a display cabinet , with different movements and postures ...
Man: Wow, you are really distracted ! Sure enough, by looking at the " specimen ", I can gain insight into history and human nature!
Next, look at the "body language" of young people
This dance teacher wants to pursue handsome students...
Everyone thinks that a dancer can safely use rich body language to convey love , but this teacher just takes the stupidest way...
Three times in a row, using salty pork knuckles ...it's just so unartistic and unimaginative !
As a result, the handsome guy ran away!
What is the purpose of the film's large number of repetitive actions, words, or actions three or more times in a row?
Man: Yes, the same goes for the two guys who sell toys, "fangs, voice dolls, and masks"... The same thing, the order doesn't even change!
Here is the effective communication & ineffective communication mentioned earlier !
Think about it, why can't these two guys sell toys?
Man: With a bad look on his face , the child probably avoids him when he sees it. How can it be sold?
The key is that he still doesn't talk to the children, which is also a big reason!
The targets of their negotiations are all dealers , the child is on the side, and the two of them don't go over to ask, what do you like ?
Man: Maybe because of dunning, I forgot about it!
The main reason is that toy promoters don't get first-hand information about children, and they don't know what they like.
Observing, thinking and reasoning, looking for the cause of the problem... these are all emphasized in this film!
Observing specimens is to ponder these things!
The little girl blows bubbles on the balcony... What do you see in this scene?
Man: Nothing, just look at these two children are very happy!
wrong! If you are a toy dealer, you will find that bubbles can still be played in this way... Blow out, pick up, and blow out again...
Man: Oh, that's right!
This is observation ! The director's design of the plot is for you to watch, analyze and ponder ... It means that you lack training in this area!
The woman knocks on the shoe on the door panel, and through body language , everyone knows that there is a stone in the shoe...
The promoter also recommended a toy to a lady at this time...
This scene is typical lens language :
If you have stones in your shoes, you have to pour them out so that you can walk better. You have encountered setbacks on the road of entrepreneurship. Have you found the problem ?
A human problem, a shoe problem, or a stone problem?
Through body language, try to figure out and analyze what a person is thinking and deduce the outcome of things!
In addition to the sound and picture combined...
Outside the window, we can't hear the sound, we can only see...
The dance teacher and students continued to have sex again, and finally the handsome guy got up and left her... There is no sound, only pictures, we still use body movements to reason!
Sometimes you only hear his voice and don't see his person...
In the debt collection scene, the two of them finally couldn't hold back. Let's go and see what's going on?
Sure enough, I saw through the crack of the door that the man lying on the bed was cheating and refused to give money, so the salesman decided to cancel the supply and stop the loss ...
Although no toys were sold, this attack was an effective communication !
Speaking of wars, all wars are caused by ineffective communication!
Here's another dialogue: you can never fathom what the Russians think!
I don't understand, I can't guess ... The lines like this appear many times, they must be closely related to the theme!
Man: This Charlie is very interesting, he doesn't seem to be able to communicate with people at all!
That's right!
He doesn't seem to know how to communicate with his soldiers... The guards help him make up his mind. Many times, after talking to the personal guards, the guards turn around and tell everyone...Typically take off your pants and fart, unnecessary !
These are all invalid communications!
What is effective communication?
Still have to pay attention to body language , at this time Charlie took the hand of the handsome guy at the wine table with affection...
When love comes, the king learns to be civilized!
Male: After Charlie's defeat, there was still a queue to borrow the toilet ... It's completely different from before!
The origin of the second civilization is through war... civilization is trained!
Think about the history of human civilization, are these two ways forward?
Look at the three people lying on the ground. It is three again. Is it necessary to lie on three? This is slavery !
Promoters let children learn to fear the monarch ... In the future, children will do this when they grow up, see?
Therefore, this film is closely related to education. If we get rid of the dead cycle , how will children be educated in the future? All worth thinking about...
These kids are mentally handicapped... the pigeons and money the girl mentioned
The following parents read poems, in fact, the result is the same whether they read or not. Parents and teachers can't understand it, too philosophical, too metaphysical...
But the teacher still let everyone applaud with the children!
This is respect, respect for vulnerable groups!
or through sound and action,
We see hope, this is the "light of civilization"!
To Homo sapiens, to women, to the elderly, to the disabled, and to children with insufficiency of intelligence... Show civilization!
In the museum, we use exhibits and physical specimens to speculate on the so-called " civilization, culture " and think about the future...
Hear his voice, watch his deeds...
There are a lot of door cracks in the film , do you see it?
The door, here refers to the "door of the heart"
Through this door, increase mutual trust and understanding!
It's too late, don't disturb others to rest...
This is "empathy", it is respect, and it is civilization, especially for the "weak"!
I'm glad to hear you're fine...that's a twist!
Man: What do you mean? It appeared N times in the film...
If you say this sentence on the phone, the other party must not hear it clearly, you continue to say it again...
For example, Beijingers say "Have you eaten yet"? This is a polite way of saying hello...
But if the other party says "Ah?" It's not that he is deaf every time, but that he doesn't understand what you mean, and your language is not commonly used by him ...
"Have you eaten"? Change it to good evening, good morning... why do you say it three times ?
Change your thinking, change your rhetoric... This is "useful social networking"!
To do useful social networking , you need to use your brain and mind, not brainless repetition !
It's the same as selling toys , you can't sell it if you don't care about it... Civilization requires wisdom !
Men and women caress, reach into her clothes...
Body language, it's comfortable to look at, it's reverie...
The dog is sleepy over there... the same kind must have empathy!
We are high animals and we understand not only the same kind, but also the sorrows and joys of low animals... This is civilization!
Outside the window, men are smoking after-the-event cigarettes , and women are scratching their heads and making poses inside... You can imagine what good things they did before !
Analogy to the glass window of the showcase, through association, reasoning, to try to figure out the story (history) that happened before!
Smoking means addiction
Making love is addictive, and making love promotes civilization!
There are also bar girls kissing soldiers, dance teachers holding hands with students in the restaurant ...
We should not only listen, see, but also touch, and hope to increase mutual understanding... We will try our best to spread the love !
Holding hands, kissing ... These intimate actions belong to effective social interaction , which means that you can be happy without money!
It is not money that drives human civilization, but love!
When we watch exhibitions in museums, we are just imagining and looking for traces of culture and civilization!
Does this big jar look like a metal wine bottle? Everyone wants to taste the wine in the glass, and there are people in this big stuffy jar who are worried about it. Are they addicted? What a pervert!
The word "Boliden" engraved on the instrument is the name of a chemical factory. In the 1980s, they shipped a large amount of metal waste to Chile, threatening the health of tens of thousands of local people...
At this time, the director is full of cursing, sarcasm, teasing... Worrying about the future of mankind!
We must know how to repent and introspect... Only human beings can progress! If it goes on like this, I 'm terrified ...
Charles XII suddenly reminds me of k12
k12 (king12,) exam-oriented education, the most rubbish education, is extremely unpopular !
Because the composition forced the child to jump off the building to commit suicide, this is evil , it is a sin !
Give your childhood back to your children! There are still so many parents objecting to the " double reduction " in the country. How ignorant is it?
What is the difference between such a person alive and a specimen ? In the long run , will China have a future?
Male: It seems that this movie deserves the award ! By the way, there is one last question, you can understand this kind of movie at a glance ?
Take a glance, think about it again, and understand it in seconds... why, this can't be your teacher?
Man: I think you are also a genius . There are no movies that you don't understand and no questions you can't answer... There are so many geniuses !
Yoxi, I love hearing this... It would be great to communicate so early!
Don't be mad at me, don't argue with me... Get mad at me and you won't learn anything!
Male: yes sir!
