In 1916, the audience sitting in the cinema watched this film and whispered, the Olympic Games were suspended due to World War I, modernism flooded the corners of western society, Yuan Shikai's restoration, the workers' strike in the industrial and commercial circles of the Republic of China, various warlords vigorously The crusade against Yuan Shikai, Chen Duxiu and the Zun Confucius movement fought fiercely... Also, Jack London and Natsume Soseki both died in this year... This year seems to be a vigorous year, but in the whole history of suffering, it is just like watching It's not so conspicuous, but this year, "Party Dissent" was released. I am very curious about how the audience will feel when the film is released, and what impact this film will have in the context of the times.

In 2016, I sat in front of my computer watching this movie, a hundred years have passed. Although this silent film has long ceased to be the mainstream orientation, the content and appeal of the entire film are still worth discussing today. This kind of feeling is too sci-fi. The four narrative clues are interspersed, and the smooth and tense rhythm sets off the grandeur of history. Lilian Jixu is so beautiful, the girl in the village of Babylon is as cute as a elf. I was so excited to see the famous last-minute rescue of the whole person. Although this method has been used badly now, when the movie was still babbling, this kind of innovation was revolutionary.
The fall of Babylon, the crucifixion of Christ, the religious massacre of St. Bartolome in France, and the labor conflict in the United States in the twentieth century... Historical events have driven the world's progress, but it is always human beings who suffer... Pray Peace, opposition parties are united.
I miss Mozi a little...

    As a mysterious prototype, the cradle is like a page turning between music and music, which is attached to this magnificent film. Eisenstein didn't think it made sense, but the technique has dominated almost all experimental cinema since the 1910s. Isn't Emily Watson in "Breaking the Waves" playing The Dear One? "Dancer in the Darkness" is also a reproduction of the hanging. Not to mention the holy bell in the sky at the end of "Breaking the Waves". How many people want to be Griffith, but they all give up.
