The movie is the part the director chooses to show you

Let's put it this way, when I saw that I couldn't help it, I looked at the timeline and it was about 60 minutes. Then I worked hard and watched the remaining 20 minutes or so. This kind of viewing experience is experienced, such as watching Tarkovsky's films, Beratar's films. Being able to watch the movie and have something to say is that when you experience the movie with another worldview, it seems that you don't understand it. After all, the movie is still a dream, and the old tower's movie proves this. How many dreams we can remember, I am afraid that few people remember. Movies like "Mushait" are filmed by the director instinctively in the way of dreams, such as Laota's "Mirror". Narrative, or rhythm, is a demonstration of the director's skills. After all, movies play with time and space. In time and space, you need to pay attention to what the director shoots for you to see what happens in a story. You can shoot it for you according to the film conventions, or you can shoot it for you to watch in an anti-dramatic way. This is just like what the little boy in Yang Dechang's "Yi Yi" said, why people can't see the back of their heads, so I want to take pictures of the back of people's heads for you to see. As a result, the greater charm of the film has appeared, and the greater director has appeared. The film does not always need to show the story under people's viewing conventions, but can also express the author's interest in the selection of images that are counter-conventional and self-contained. For example, you will feel that all the visual presentations in "Mushait" are always strange, the characters are not normal, the relationship between the characters is not normal, the narrative is not normal, the structure is not normal, and many places that you feel inexplicable always appear. But as mentioned earlier, the director chooses to show you the movie, and he has already made you recreate the attitude of recognizing the movie, as well as the author's aesthetic choice!
The above is some understanding of the movie "Mushait" after watching it. Thanks to the appearance of such movies in the long stream of film art, it makes you feel that the movie is really interesting.

    Pretentious judgment and performance, watching and showing the suffering of others, how likable.

    Bresson is unique in showing the miserable life of the girl, and he did a great job. The girl’s actions and the string of tears really make me uncomfortable, but in this sense, I really feel that it is not as good as Bill Douglas’s "My "Childhood" is more poetic and powerful. The passages of the original novel touched me even more, probably because Bresson’s style is not suitable for adapting this story.
