This is a warm and flat movie, I open it idle on the night of the rest day, and watch it for an hour. So I looked at my phone again, and there was no news. If it weren't for a night with no one to chat, I would not have finished watching this movie. And forced myself to turn on the computer and type this totally unqualified film review.
It's easy to get distracted at the beginning of the story, and I didn't even notice that the Nobel Prize winner for literature hasn't written anything in 5 years. And the story begins now. Irony, humor and embarrassment unfold one after the other from the time the writer arrives at Salas. He was "paraded" on the fire truck, followed and photographed on the road like a star, invited by a stranger to have dinner at home, and was asked to sponsor an electric wheelchair. And when you are watching the scenes, there must be a fragment that you have seen and happened that is deeply awakened. Look, you have also been a "distinguished citizen" for a few minutes. Of course, at the same time, you must have more or less led the writer to look at the feelings of the folks.
The role of the writer himself is very literate. The initial acceptance speech was out of place, and the speech at the final result of the small town Salas oil painting competition was a reflection of his upholding his inner order. Everyone's more or less self-righteousness is actually an affirmation of their own value from the heart. Whenever I feel that I am very normal, ordinary, plain, life is very dark. Maybe the writer was so afraid when he gave his Nobel Prize speech.
Like I said, everyone can be a "distinguished citizen" for a few minutes, and in the second half of the sentence, I want to say that everyone was also a small town citizen for a few minutes. We will also have an inappropriate sense of borderlessness, stand on the moral high ground and blame others, and find that our moral bottom line is constantly hitting the bottom.
In the film, the writer and the town residents are in a relationship that is opposed to each other and cannot be separated. Conflicts cannot be reconciled. So in the final press conference, the writer was well-dressed and business-like, answering questions with a sly and confident smile. To a certain extent, it is also "revenge" for the residents of the small town. (Probably not, of course, but at least in the eyes of a narrow-minded woman like me, this is a revenge)
After watching the movie and reading a few reviews, I agree with the statement that there is no good person in the movie. And are there really good and bad people in real life? The complex and multi-faceted people in the works are not everyone in the real world.
PS:
1. Watching this movie really needs to calm down. In my opinion, this is more rambling than the Sunset Trilogy. The slow plot in front of it only pushes to a climax at the end.
2. The author looks so much like a foreign teacher when I was in college. He was also a stubborn and individual old man, so in the process of watching the movie, the two faces switched back and forth, suddenly a little inexplicably kind.
3. The writer's dress suddenly looks good, a hooded sweater or a scarf, this dress is very scholarly. Occasionally wearing a pair of sunglasses will inexplicably poke into my aesthetics. Directly on top of the whole person.
