The problem is actually "split". Horror and Literary Divide

To say something. 12 hours after watching it, calm down a bit. It's not as bad as many people say, the problem is actually "split". Horror and literary division. As a horror movie, it's actually quite good, especially visually, I recommend it to most people, and it's definitely worth watching. But as a literary film, there are too many problems. The narrative is actually not complicated, to the point of being incomprehensible. But it is very uncomfortable to watch, because it is really a pseudo-artistic film, if it is regarded as literature and art, it must have higher requirements, and it must be a low score. In short, the director was a great success in form, but failed in content, and his ambition exceeded his ability. I haven't thought about the logic line, I really don't think it's worth it, but there are probably several important reasons: 1. It is indeed too full. The director seems to want to say everything, and piles everything into it. The feeling of the vegetable market makes people feel that they are showing off mysteries. Or the Xuanxu can be sold at a high level, and the vegetable market can also have great wisdom, but it can’t justify it, it’s just a good-looking list; 2. The layout is too high, but the metaphor is too low-level, it can’t even be regarded as a metaphor, I can’t wait The script was written directly into the screen, for fear that the audience would not understand it. Witches are analogous to Nazis, the logic is barely reasonable, but the performance is too hard, "the director said that Nazis are like witches", there is a kind of horror film and political metaphor in the plot completely separated, it has nothing to do I feel that this feeling may be fatal to literary film lovers. If you just play thriller and stop at the political point, I believe it will be better 3. The preaching and explanation at the end is a super failure. It seems that I want to use the doctor's story to wear the clues, but it seems really unreasonable, the heroine is not necessary Say then. Either it's literary, like the old Taferini or David Lynch, or it's explained thoroughly, like Deadly ID. This kind of half-hearted explanation is the worst, or you still don’t understand it, or you feel that your IQ is insulted, and it’s not flattering. No wonder so many people give low scores.

    The coquettish red on stage and the chilling Berlin sunshine are still dazzling. Starting from the first dance of the heroine, it is like self-respecting Jiji's ambition. The original version has no intention of deconstructing scenes, but the new version insists on corresponding and ending every detail. If Dakota Johnson is just a matter of taste, the script is really not talented. Argento is a cult of stylized and pampered audiences, and Guadagnino makes an audio-visual bombardment in a bland and unsatisfactory way

    Whether it is aesthetic awareness or social insight, it is not as good as Agento's ankle, and he is still pretending to go on and on, and doing so many water-injected and wasteful scenes, is he really overwhelmed by the popularity of cmbyn? In the end, the neurotic "epilepsy" climax almost laughed, second-rate is always second-rate, bah! | 2019.1.13 Re-view, maintain the original judgment.

Suspiria quotes

  • Madame Blanc: Part of the issue always is not being able to see your body in space. One angle in one mirror or on film is not enough. Movement is never mute. It is a language. It's a shape of energetic shapes written in the air like words forming sentences. Like poems. Like prayers.

    Susie Bannion: Spells?

    Madame Blanc: When you jump, it's not the height, but the space beneath you that matters. Every leap into the air must be a coup de foudre.

    Susie Bannion: I don't understand.

    Madame Blanc: A strike of lightning. A bolt of love, in fact.

    Susie Bannion: That's beautiful.

    Madame Blanc: There are two things that dance can never be again: beautiful and cheerful. Today, we need to break the nose of every beautiful thing. And if you're going to be a dancer, you must learn French.

  • Dr. Josef Klemperer: You can give someone your delusion, Sara. That's religion.

    [pause]

    Dr. Josef Klemperer: That is the Reich.
