death knell

Mark wanted to watch 600 days, today finally realized the dream. It seems that there is only 439 minutes of the Blu-ray version, so it is this version that is naturally watched.

Bella Tarr is known as the last film master of the 20th century, and fans are fond of saying: If I only have 7 hours left in my life, please give me a "Satan Tango". I want to say: If I only have seven hours left, a "Satanic Tango" is too heavy for me, but I have a long second half of my life.

The master tells stories with the lens, not literally. This is an adaptation of a novel, lines or too many narrations naturally affect it as a movie, so the lens is the key to the narrative. Of course, the fixed and moving various long lenses need not be mentioned. Another highlight is that the same scene is presented again from the perspective of different characters, and then the storyline slowly emerges, and the composition of the whole chapter echoes each other like its single-stage shots.

Ashti abused the cat, and the indifference and indifference of the people around her, in the end, the little girl also paid the price with her life. Look, she is holding a lost life, and the people who met her didn't even mention it, not even the doctor... This group of people is ignorant, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard. They dared to fight their neighbors, but they trusted a liar who could speak well. Even this "liar" made me believe that he was good to the villagers. What was the sound that Ilmiash heard, the bells of heaven? Or the call of Satan? He could have run away with huge sums of money, but in the end he was not afraid of trouble to find a way out for the villagers. It wasn't until the doctor went to verify that the early morning bell woke me up, "I must be crazy, I confused the sound of the bell of heaven with the sound of the death knell". The "repeater machine" kept saying: "Turkey is calling", and in the end the doctor even nailed the window.

Sometimes it is important to know the background of a work, or at least the approximate age. It was only in the 14th and 5th centuries that Turkey hit Hungary, and the Renaissance had only begun. This group of people only existed in the era of slavery. No wonder they were so easily brainwashed. Therefore, they don't even have faith. The religious beliefs that are often expressed in the West, they are just ordinary farmers, and they cannot accept the edification of advanced ideas. Perhaps what they can embody more is that tradition, don’t bring umbrellas when it rains. Umbrellas only became popular after they were introduced to Europe in the 16th and 7th centuries. Alas, even though this big liar stole everyone's hard-earned money for a year, he still managed to find a way out for this group of people and it felt a little human. In fact, the voice that Ilmi Ash heard was the gospel of God, and that voice was very exciting. There is no way out in the countryside. Everyone goes to the cities to build construction. Only when capital is accumulated can there be a better future. In this way, the pattern will open up.

"Dogtown" also has a village that should be spurned. Lars von Trier may have borrowed this story, but that film is mainly about human nature, which can be said to be timeless. Therefore, it is a pity that this film is out of touch with our present world, and it is really heavy to integrate into that era.

    Bella Tarr did not walk the wrong door in front of art, and he will do the same in other art forms after all, restrained and calm. Bella Tarr's works are called movies for the time being because they can't find their category. It is different from Dadaism and surrealism.
