Love Lao Luo

Compared with "Sparrow", the angle of the sparrow is relatively high. Although it is also an inconspicuous life scene, there are many metaphors and it looks very enjoyable. As for "Lou", it is slightly inferior in terms of theme, and it is generally social contradictions, human beliefs, and the like. But Lao Luo will always send out some jelly beans, sit still and love, that is, you stick to something, or you don't go with the flow, the disaster will always pass, and the faith will return. The whole film lasted for 4 years and consisted of 46 long-range shots. It has a great sense of picture, and it looks like each one is a stage play. It can be called its signature technique, which is really wonderful. The swaying statue of Jesus, the salesman who cheated the insurance, the magician who accidentally broke the audience, the girl who was pushed off the cliff by the crowd, etc., are quite intriguing.

[#1200] The pursuit of extreme aesthetics is naturally good, but I think Anderson’s zombie-like action scheduling has to some extent eliminated the ironic effect he wants to achieve, and finally has to be expressed through language. The pessimism of the whole film is not only confused. Society dissolves the meaning of human beings. In this way, looking at the greatness of Chaplin and Tati, the audiovisual that transforms the ordinary into extraordinary is the real movie.

Roy Anderson's pioneering work, the same single scene, single lens and single scene, the same dark gray and absurd. The screen has a strong sense of space and a rhythm of its own. The still footage constantly reminds the viewer how indifferent we are to the absurdities and distortions of life. It's just that the words are not surprising, the topic is very big, and the opinions are general. I still prefer you, the living, seven years later. It feels more detailed, more aura, and more mature.
