The director of this film is very amazing. He won the best director with this film. He is very sensitive to natural scenery. From this film, we can feel that he has a strong control over the film and the ability to create romantic poetry. . This is a pastoral film, and the cinematography gives a strong sensual expression to this poetic tragedy. The control of natural light is excellent, and the movement lens is used more, and the integrity of the composition is well controlled during the movement. The director was born in a philosophy department, so there is actually some philosophical meaning conveyed by this film, and I hope someone can analyze it. For example, interpersonal and chronological handling, philosophical interpretation of behavior... The whole film is developed with a voice-over of a little girl. Her words are from the perspective of a child, not to explain what happened at this time, but full of Make a higher-level analysis of what you see from your own eyes. There are some metaphorical fragments and contexts in the film, which are used as part of the main line. While narrating, they constantly throw out complex metaphors, such as the return of bill, which is metaphorized by the locust plague, and the contradiction is metaphorized by the fire. It does not use branch lines or simple lines. object representation, but completely integrated. The scenery photography with very little dialogue and many blanks does not affect the narrative at all. The director simply wants to express it through audition, and the audience can fully understand the development process through the expressions of the characters and what is happening. The retro music interspersed in the film and the effect of separation of sound and picture also greatly cater to the poetic atmosphere and pastoral temperament of the film, and the second half especially highlights the tragic effect. The story is complete and unified, not sloppy, and the overall look is clean and profitable. The filming of the film seems to have been helped by God, and many scenes have wonderful coincidences, which are not artificial. For example, the farmer opens the window in winter, a piece of snow falls, and the storm scene symbolizes the coming of the storm. Rare to come across. The excellent use of the camera shows the environment and life of the early 20th century.

    The working girl and the working girl climbed up to the rich son, celebrating with the family, emotional entanglements, locust plagues and fires, and death pursuits. The photography and music are heartbreakingly beautiful, and the little girl's poetic monologue
