This movie is not the most famous among Antonioni's other movies, but it is the most touching one I have seen. It is very interesting and good-looking when dealing with the separation and indifference between a couple who have no love. It is worth borrowing when encountering similar couple breakup scenes. The wife left the site of her husband's book club alone and came to the poor alley where she once lived, where she felt happy physically and mentally. The dilapidated house, the clock that stopped time, the fighting youth... all made her feel the existence and reality of life. Watching the launch of the rocket, the proprietress of the small cold drink stand (introducing the cheap hotel), what a simple joy. The husband went home alone and woke up alone in the half-dark light of the evening. The two went to a strip club. That abstracted, conceptualized erotic performance feels fake and distant. Although the dance was good, it seemed like it had nothing to do with anyone. The people on the PARTY are more like a group of wandering spirits at night. During the day, the Lanruo Temple is a luxurious mansion at night. They can enjoy themselves and everything will cease to exist at dawn. Monica Vitti is undoubtedly the greatest beauty! Her voice is a little hoarse at high pitches, faintly smoking and drinking. And speaking in a low voice seemed very low and sweet. In Vitti's room it was dawn. Vitti turned off the lights and turned into a silhouette. The couple strolled on the lawn...that part really didn't know what was going to happen. The appearance of that love letter seemed a little abrupt, but at that time, something was really needed to change something... to break the state of the two at that time. The writing on the love letter is so beautiful that the abruptness about the letter is immediately forgotten. Aside from that letter, I can't think of any other situation that would lead to the final scene of the two kissing. The beauty of the picture and composition cannot be written down one by one. Antonioni always puts the woman in the right position and puts the right light on it... I didn't see the unbeautiful woman in his picture, amazing! Going farther, after watching this movie, I thought of the recent boring comedy story. Even if it is a story that feels very boring when I think about it, there are actually many places that can be designed, such as the estrangement between husband and wife, indifference, the shattering of marriage, women's thoughts, men's attitudes, scenes, pictures... There are no bad stories, only bad ones. movie of! (Thinking of the comedy scene at the Fellini Ball.) If you put your mind to the design, it will always turn out to be a good movie, even if it is a boring popcorn comedy.
