don't like it

I've watched a lot of Spanish movies, but I just don't like this one.

Structure, ah, deconstruction, it's not wrong to show off the structure, but it's not very flattering to show off so hypocritically. Especially with such a cheap happy ending, and the sentence "Find a hole at the end, and then you can start all over again". . Is contrived the so-called magic realism?

In the whole film, the only thing I like is Lucia, her courage and straightforwardness, she feels like she is wearing a red dress in a poster, riding a motorcycle, and galloping on the sand. I feel that Spain is such a super-saturated country, with bright sunshine, blue ocean, gravel-yellow sand and people with red blood flowing. But the light and shadow in this film have been treated into a kind of color-weariness that is almost exposed, gloomy and morbid.

Sometimes I feel that the story and structure of a movie are not the most important thing. The emotion and details conveyed by the image are the things that can be tasted for a long time.

All in all, a film that doesn't really catch a cold. Those who like the tube also tap lightly. .

    It's better than expected. It's a very "beautiful" movie with a strong sense of lens. The subtitles are delayed and the movie viewing experience is lacking. Sure enough, any movie I didn't expect is a surprise. It feels like Ou Rong and a card. Lax, the sex scene is not a classic. If there is no subtitles that can't be adjusted like shit, the viewing experience will definitely be better. The scale of the use of the lens is very large, and there are scenes of childbirth, which are very impactful. The soundtrack is also very good, I always feel that there is a shadow of the new wave

    I like these: floating islands, caves on the island, mermaid, the name Malta, the little girl killed by a dog, the sunshine on the writer’s window sill, the corners of the writer’s ambiguous smile, Lucia’s curly hair, and walking swaying Posture, the two requirements for a good story are the park benches, crabs, the nearest moon, the sea under the moonlight, and of course, their sex. In such a humid movie, even the moon is surging.

Sex and Lucía quotes

  • Lucía: Which do you prefer? Wild sex with a stranger? Or sex with someone you know, someone you love, but also wild?

    Lorenzo: What?

    Lucía: You have to choose. Wild sex with a stranger, or wild sex with someone who's crazy about you, and who you love? Go ahead. Be frank.

    Lorenzo: With you.

    Lucía: Finally...

  • Carlos: This really isn't an island.

    Lucía: It isn't?

    Carlos: It's a giant lid. A floating piece of earth. Like a raft.

    Lucía: But it isn't moving.

    Carlos: People get dizzy here during high tide. And no one knows why.

    Lucía: Except you.

    Carlos: I've dived underneath the whole island. It's totally hollow. Thousands of caves, but nothing else. Not a single rock connects it to the sea floor.
