Crimson sentimentality-the impression of "Red" in "Three Colors"

Red jacket, red bar, red jeep, red chair, red door, red book cover, red dog leash. . . . . . As the name suggests, in the "Red" of the "Red, White and Blue Trilogy", Kirchlovsky built a red world for us. Red often reminds people of passion, enthusiasm, vigor and other positive words. But in this "Red", Kishilowski showed us the sentimental life of three ordinary people in a slow and long narrative. Of course, they are all living actively. In the red world, people It should be full of positive emotions.
The color of the picture in this film is very beautiful. In addition to the crimson color, along with the different moods of different characters, its tones are constantly changing, sometimes bright and sometimes gloomy, but it always gives people a beautiful feeling. The beauty is embedded in this world. The story takes place in a small space. A female college student who works part-time as a model, a young judge with a thriving career, and an old judge who retired and lonely eavesdropping on the phone of his neighbors. They are not far apart, especially the female student and the young judge. One street. But just as we often say in our lives "no chance to meet and never meet", they may already be in such a space, but they have no way of knowing each other until accidents. Because the female student bruised the judge’s dog and met the judge; the judge learned the story of the young judge and his unfaithful girlfriend through wiretapping; and it was not until the end that the young judge met the female student in an accident.
This film seems to be a Kislovsky movie. He did not fully tell a story that makes people understand the cause, course, and result. It is a movie with meaning embedded in the process. There is no mysterious beginning, no twists and turns. The plot has no bizarre ending. Life, everything lies in the process of life. This movie shows the lives of three people and the subtle connections between them. I like this kind of movie that narrates in a slow rhythm. The passion and sensitivity of the female students, that The beauty and misfortune of young judges, the quirks and sentimentality of retired judges. Everyone’s life is so plain. Their plain life makes us all feel familiar. Female students work part-time as a model and go to the gym. It is obvious that they are deeply in love, showing a kind of petty bourgeois comfort, but her long-distance lover's unreasonable doubts and guesses It gave her a lot of distress; the young judge has a successful career and has a bright future, but like many people who are about to make great achievements in his career, he has to face the infidelity of his lover in pain; what about the retired old judge? It seems that he can only fall into loneliness all day long, and accompany him by eavesdropping on other people's voices. Until the female student enters his life, he also evokes a sad love story. The subtle thing is that the past of the old judge was surprisingly similar to that of the young judge. It was also an accident that the book in his hand turned to the content of the exam, and it was also the betrayal of his lover when he was full of spirits. The world’s luck and misfortune, obedience and disobedience, goodness and unkindness, loyalty and unfaithfulness seem to be constantly staged in a similar way forever, life is in reincarnation, and life is in reincarnation. When the young judge faced the lover’s infidelity and was stricken, the old judge narrated the similar sentimentality to the female students in a frontal and sentimental manner. A feeling of interlacing time and space changed the vicissitudes of the years and the helplessness of life from my heart. Gone spontaneously.
Of course, Kishilowski didn’t want to just shoot a sad movie that seems to fall into the sadness. This movie is also filled with the hope and warmth of life from time to time. At that time, the red that came into view from time to time made people feel It's warm enough. Especially the girl student, the central character of the film, reminded me of Emily in "Angels Love Beauty". She is kind, happy, and has a very red emotion. She is deeply infected with this emotion. The lonely old judge. An old man who spy on other people's secrets was finally deeply moved. He stopped eavesdropping on other people's secrets. On the contrary, he confided his secrets to the kind girl. The girl also paid attention to the red jeep-the young judge's ride, but they were never able to meet until she took a boat to England to meet her boyfriend, and the sad judge walked up with the always loyal puppy in her arms. Departing ship. Finally, the old man found news of the shipwreck in the newspaper. When he was anxiously looking for the female student on TV, the female student and the young judge were lucky enough to be rescued. The two stood together. At that moment, my personal life seemed to form a ring. With the hope of a new life, the film ended in a faint sound of music, leaving me with a warm taste of life.
After watching this movie, I have a very comfortable warm feeling in my heart. Everyone faces a lot of sentimentality and helplessness in life, but the ubiquitous warm red is our psychological comfort, that touch of red It makes people feel safe, warm, and gives people hope to get rid of grief. Red is everywhere. It means not only a color, but also an emotion, an attitude to life, a smile of people, a trace of kindness, a little passion, all caring and comforting each other. Therefore, perhaps in the face of misfortune and setbacks, we should first quietly savor a trace of sadness, and then let us discover the red in life, let red comfort us, and let us smile faintly at life in the warmth.

    11th BJIFF No.26@Sky New Colorful Clouds. Rewatch. Keith's Last Bolero. Judges sit quietly in their messy lives, treating other people's phones as FM stations, and audiences are invited to eavesdrop. We get as close to the judge as there are phone calls in the movie. Why else would we hate Valentine's unseen boyfriend? But the judge was not interested in the stories of the neighbors, but the choices they made of free will in particular circumstances, including Valentine's. Selfishness in a broad sense is inevitable, and the starting point of fraternity is inevitably oneself first. So he must surrender himself in exchange for a better understanding of Valentine. Valentine also came as promised. "Maybe you're the woman I didn't meet." The young judge seemed like a kind of regretful compensation. Of course, they're all other selves of Keith himself. In the movie, the judge tells Valentine: I don't want anything. Valentine: Then stop breathing. And into the prophecy of Keishi. The trilogy ends with Glass and Tears. After reviewing it, I still love red the most, but my affection for blue has also greatly improved. Although Binoche is not Irina, blue is closer to a twin flower than red.

    The style is not the same as the first two films. I no longer focus on the psychology of the characters, and I started to take a philosophical line. The stories are complicated, there are many metaphors, and the narrative is multi-character and multi-line, which makes me very confused, in other words. It’s just that I didn’t understand it. Anyway, I finally finished watching the ≪Blue White Red≫ trilogy. My favorite is the simple and humorous ≪White≫, followed by the profound literary ≪Blue≫. As for ≪Red≫, wait for me Let's figure it out

    The Judge: It's been years since I dreamt something nice.

  • Valentine: Excuse me... the door was open. I'm sorry, I think I ran over your dog. Rita. A German Shepherd.

    The Judge: [Displaying little interest] It's possible. She disappeared yesterday.

    Valentine: She's in my car. Alive. I don't know what to do.

    Valentine: [after getting no response from the judge] Would you like me to take her to a vet?

    The Judge: [Displaying little interest] As you wish.

    Valentine: If I ran over your daughter, would you react the same way?

    The Judge: [Displaying no emotion] I don't have a daughter, miss.

    The Judge: [pauses, then turns to her] Go away... and don't close the door!
