A modern man, an ancient diplomat, intertwined in the same gorgeous dream. Russia's gorgeous court and the history of its ups and downs have gone through the curtains. The viewing is mixed with the appreciation of culture, the satire of politics, the adherence to the classics, and the interpretation of human nature, and everything is in the end. The climax of the grand ball. At the end, the prosperity is over, and the snow scene outside the house has turned into a sea of ​​ups and downs outside the boat, which is embarrassing.

    He's hard enough to make, and he's ambitious enough, but to me, it's a really unattractive film. It's really uncomfortable when the camera becomes a character throughout the film, forcing you to constantly zoom in on the camera's presence.

    The Steadicam sports long mirror (zoom and surround) that is pleasing to the eye, the important figures in Russian history who take turns appearing in the Winter Palace, resemble the extreme presentation of Joanzhe's open space-time view, but it is inevitably boring. Two narrators, photographer + narrator and diplomat, intervene in the separation, nostalgic for the past and sad for the present, and gaze at the artwork/viewer. The Russian Ark on the ocean is also a metaphor for the close relationship between Russia and Europe. (8.5/10)
