The black screen, the music sounded immediately, and the heart-warming symphony suddenly appeared in the small room like Grimm's fairy tale in front of him. All layers of green tones were psychedelic, and the real world outside the window was like the fun of pencil drawings. The whistle of the train, a man with frightened eyes looked at the camera and told you, at that moment, I seemed to be outside this fairy tale world, looking at the cold and cold world, what would happen to the crowd different stories.
A fat woman complaining about life, an old man dragging a dead dog through a restaurant, a man carrying a golden tuba playing, unbearable downstairs neighbors, the characters are staged like a spectacle, but it's really not that irrelevant. It's important, there are too many metaphors in there. Although it's still difficult to fully understand the cold humor of Europeans, I was also deeply shocked and couldn't help sighing from the heart. This masterpiece is really not suitable for the present. Let’s watch, in this land where the East is in full swing with the economy and society, no one will have the leisure to discuss the various sorrows in life and the intrinsic value of living, because the heat meets the water, it can only be foggy , everything is pale, and the sight has become a white blind person.
The green tone at the beginning is carried through from the beginning of the film. Against the background of the fairy tale world that was deliberately created, the facial expressions and even the body language of the characters have a strong sense of sculpture. Under fixed shots and long shots, the precise movements are as symbolic as a drama. Even a certain person after each fixed actor will suddenly become the next protagonist, suddenly appearing in the most prominent position of the screen, This way of ranking is like watching a Shakespeare play full of visual conflicts. Everyone who seems to be plain is actually caught in our eyes through the position set up by the camera. You will find that we seem to be actively participating in this film, and when the actors speak directly to the camera, they can perceive the words and the atmosphere created are only for us who let the camera replace the eyes, from head to toe immersed in it.
This kind of sense is like cruising in an art gallery. In front of the huge picture scrolls and the sculptures placed in fixed positions, we become a real one with these works of art.
The best part in the film is Anna and Mick. Anna tells the camera about her dream at the recurring tavern. She dreamed of her wedding with Mick who was playing guitar in "The Dark Lord" . In fact, at the beginning of the movie, Mick suddenly appeared in the center of the picture like a constellation. His face with gothic makeup like Marilyn Mawson was cold and stern and sexy and uninhibited. Anna, who was going to talk to him before, had a slightly ambiguous conversation, and in the end, Anna couldn't let go of her love for Mick. So, when the film was about to end, Anna dreamed that she was sitting in a small house in a wedding dress and playing the guitar. Outside the window of the room was the scenery of the rushing Swedish countryside. When the three-story house reached the small house, In the town, all the people in the town congratulated the happy Anna, and Mick was also playing the guitar. The guitar was beautiful and deep, as if it brought a rare warmth to this cool-toned movie.
The posters of Japan and France adopted this picture. Maybe life is full of joys and sorrows, but as the most important life journey, love and marriage are the most important links in the formation of this world, so Anna's dream has also become this The most beautiful and warmest part of the film.
When I look back again and again, my mind always comes to mind, that picture after picture, only my eyes are wandering in this fairy tale world, where one after another beautiful or different statues, walk through. It seemed that it had nothing to do with me, and finally woke up like Nanke's dream. It turned out that I was just another sculpture in the fairy tale square.
