A textbook-level movie by a textbook-level director, "Walking in the Clouds", which I personally think is a relatively niche movie, can be so eye-catching, which is indeed worthy of Chinese filmmakers to sit down and think about it.
Comparing the current inspirational episodes in China, "Walking in the Clouds" is undoubtedly unique. Of course, objectively, there are cultural differences between China and the West. Of course, each has its own strengths. I can only say how this inspirational drama gave me. Every individual who has a dream and is not afraid of hardships to realize it is great, although the process of realizing the dream is almost crazy.

I would also like to talk about the magical participatory viewing experience of the film, which is undoubtedly a challenge for some people with acrophobia, and the 3D effect is very good. This immersive experience better serves the themes and emotions that the whole film wants to express, and such a viewing experience is unforgettable. recommend!

The Walk quotes

  • [first lines]

    Philippe Petit: "Why?" That is the question people ask me most. Pourquoi? Why? For what? Why do you walk on the wire? Why do you tempt fate? Why do you risk death. But, I don't think of it this way. I never even say this word, death. La mort. Yes of okay, I said it once, or maybe three times, just now... But watch, I *will* not say it again. Instead, I use the opposite word. Life. For me, to walk on the wire, this is life. C'est la vie.

    Philippe Petit: [now standing in the torch of the Statue of Liberty] So, picture with me it's 1974, New York city, and I am in love with two buildings - two towers. Or as everyone in the world will calls them, the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center. They call to me. These towers, they stir something inside of me, and they inspire in me a dream. My dream is to hang a high-wire between those twin towers, and *walk* on it! Of course, uh, this is impossible, not to mention, illegal. So, why attempt the impossible? Why follow your dream? But, I cannot answer this question why, not with words. But I can show you how i happened. And so, we must go back in time, and across the ocean, because my love affair with these beautiful towers did not begin in New York. In case you couldn't tell, I'm not from here. No, my story begins in another one of the world's most beautiful cities, se Paris.

  • Philippe Petit: [just before beginning his walk] I lost my costume! It's a tragedy! The biggest page of my like and I lose my costume! It falls off the edge! If have no costume!

    Jeff: What?

    Philippe Petit: [now in French] It lost my turtleneck, this is not my costume!
