An artist's life

Great surprise, the best movie I've seen in years. It is essentially an art film in a suspenseful guise.
I have seen this director's trilogy before watching this film, but I must say that this film is not inferior to those trilogy at all. The film is a suspense film, through the sheriff's interrogation, to explain an artist His life, the pain of his childhood, the confusion after becoming famous, the depravity in the bottleneck period, the regret and self-defeating after the depravity, and the beginning of abandoning and forgetting himself, forgetting the teacher he respected, the girl he loved, his best friend, The precious memories of having, all, all...
This is the first time I've seen a movie like this, and I've never come across a movie with such an interior and form in the past. Maybe it's because I had the heart to watch suspense movies, but ended up seeing art movies that amazed me.
In the last paragraph, when the writer was able to make a phone call, he called his lover and wanted to apologize to her, but the other party couldn't hear him talking... This means that after death, everything has nothing to do with the person he loved before.
Finally, when the weather cleared, the writer took his bag full of photos to where he should go. Although the body died, the soul was reborn.

    #siff The house leak is the mood of a night of rain, a few lightning bolts and a sudden increase in rainfall, more and more water accumulation in the entire closed space, more and more intentions, whistling music, beards, wine, mouse traps , photos... I can see it in the fog, but the rhythm is getting more and more catchy until I finally remember the memory in a dream, everything is quiet, there are no more sounds and images that can disturb my mind, and I can finally step into a new one. journey...

    Some shots are a little deliberate, and the lighting atmosphere creates a good atmosphere. It is about a subconscious self-examination. However, a movie that is art for art's sake is not a good movie!
