Earth night

Five different cities on the same night, five pairs of different strangers, the relationship between the characters, the confined space of the taxi, and the same timeline narrative. These were used by many directors in the next few years, but Jiamuxu played so happily in 1991. It can be seen that five The narrative time of these cities is also in chronological order. At the end of the film, the night has passed and the dawn is coming. Every story has ordinary sadness and joy, as well as the weirdness that Jamush is good at. It is good
and interesting. There are 5 cities in Los Angeles, New York, Paris, Rome, and Helsinki. The little story about living in a taxi driver and different passengers at night, there is no encounter between the beginning and the end, I especially like this tune of Jiamuxu! Especially the bleak and indifference of the last story, nothing has changed, but it seems to have grown a little.

    1. Jiamusu is indeed a foreign Wang Jiawei (it should be Wang Jiawei who is Chinese Jiamusu); 2. I feel that Cao Baoping has seen "Earth Night" before filming "Li Mi's Conjecture"; 3. The ending song Tom Waits' smoke 4. An inspiration: If I don't get motion sickness, I can actually go for a taxi during the day...

    Ten years of videos lying on the hard drive. Last night, after recognizing her in the Wild Rose of Paris, I decided to give her all four stars.
