When the heart is empty, people who steal the heart will take advantage of the emptiness.
The East pays attention to cause and effect, and the beginning of a crack always starts with one's own choice.
Tai Shi rode a motorcycle through the residential area, hanging a business card on the door of the house.
The parked motorcycle was a little shabby in front of the luxury car, and the two men's eyes met, each with feelings in their hearts. The calm narrative leaves the image with hostility!
He, Tae-shi, is a thief, with a subtotal engaged in the act of slipping the door and picking the lock. Sometimes a way of life is not only for survival, but more importantly a way of killing time.
Empty is a relative concept. When your time is passed by yourself, so does the day.
Finally, he dived into the depths of the story, watching his intrusion with a pair of bitter eyes. In this passage, I thought of the behavior of the horse monkey in "Sunny Day", but the director added other elements to "Empty House". Tai Shi’s laundry and doing things are more like obsessive-compulsive disorder and fetishism.
She was ghostly, very composed and calm like the director's camera lens, watching Tae-shik's every move, watching his self-blasphemy, until their eyes collided, highlighting the embarrassment of existence.
Thus, it is an opportunity, and the depressed heart flies away like a moth like another light. Otherwise you will not be able to explain what was decided in an instant, a house without joy is the same as a prison. He and her walk like a non-violent version of "Natural Murderer". The mutual comfort in the situation of mutual helplessness, warms already cold hearts. The group photo shows this dependence. Sometimes movies convey dreams and states, the rationality of which is ignored by us. In the whole movie, loneliness is a gesture, as long as it is the name Kim Kidd, you don't want to be comfortable in the prying eyes. All getting along with people just proves a relative.
Countless group photos were taken to leave a history of existence, otherwise life would not be able to recall passion.
Oral history is always tampered with by memory, and the person in the photo will always be young. For the loneliness in the future, they keep the present figure. Many things happen not because of love or not, but because of filling people's thoughts and senses in the empty heart.
This kind of life is just alive, and all encounters with people become references for memory. This kind of life is just to make a little alive in the endless loneliness, and only they know what is in their hearts.
In such a life, what are they waiting for, waiting for the excitement of the owner's entrance, or waiting for the ruthless life to give them a destined destination. Some people say that they act as a window to heal the soul. I see it more like the helplessness of a footless bird. Once it takes off, there is no longer a possibility to stop.
Life is cruel and realistic. The director expresses the alienation and loneliness of people. The image of the old man who died at home is actually just a description of the status quo of society. Such a scene lacks strength and novelty. He and she are not angels, but the director makes them assume the duties and roles of angels. , And even let this kind of door slipping and picking a door have a sacred and redemptive meaning. The way the movie is expressed is intuitive, "empty room" is a pan-philosophical proposition, and the feeling that the movie gives us is improper drifting of two lonely hearts, and this way of being in the world is not desirable.
The movie just expands some of the ordinary interpersonal relationships into a visual impact, and allows many worlds to be displayed in one place. There is nothing new from the perspective of humanity and religion.
In particular, the second half fell into Kim Kidd’s own stereotypes. The weirdness of the East and the psychedelic music of the East may still surprise the West in the "Sixth Sense" style. However, this performance ignores the basic common sense of Eastern metaphysics and the separation between the two. And close are the director's choreographers.
Are people who live by feeling happy? Is it moral? When Shanhua is indulged in illusory tacit understanding, is her behavior worthy of sympathy? The relationship between her and her husband depends on transaction costs. When you agree with the transaction, you have to pay the cost. On this proposition, her bruise is the cost of the transaction. Modern Korea is not the era of a single death. If you get it, you have to pay the cost.
I don’t think it is necessary for the film to build the future in such an illusion. It is our purpose to come into the world to face it. Choosing is the process of facing bravely.
As a film depicting human nature, it did not give me much impact, because the way of expression was not new, and the reason why the heroine Li Sung-yeon appeared in the film because of the "comfort women" incident may be related to her depression. In this film, she grimaces ...
