director Jim Jarmusch
starring Bill Murray, Sharon Stone, Jessica Lange
Length: 106 Min
Jia Muxu (forgive me for not liking this translation, I thought it was Jia Zhangke’s brother if I didn’t know), I didn’t take it in 2005. In Palme d'Or, he won a jury award. The protagonist is Bill Murray, an old face that can make people laugh and cry without much expression.
Even without the restraint of the producer, this movie looks quite mainstream. I mean, good directors will go mainstream. As long as the movie is still interesting, there is no need to be entangled in attitude. It does not need to be deliberate. Show something.
Of course, despite this, Jamusch still buried countless absurdities in the calm, and the opening seems to be an old story, but from Sharon Stone’s daughter of Lolita and the name of Don johnston (from the original version of Miami’s Don johnson, the veteran Wan Fanfare, there is a song "the eyes of Don Johnson" written for him) at the beginning, you know that you should change your expression to keep watching. Jia Muxu is also a delicate guy, the legs of the airport beauties, the teasing of Lolita, the short skirts of the pet clinic secretary, the tricky lust flowing out of subjective shots, the meanness of the secretary, the little belly chicken husband of the real estate girlfriend, the old punch of the motorcycle party, All felt an "incompetent force" in the dumb laughter.
The power of incompetence also belongs to the middle-aged state of mind. Turning around 20 years ago is to find a lover, and turning around 20 years later can only find helplessness. Old lovers have their own belongings. Sweet talk and even common language can only be dusted. Return to the dust, not to mention that there is really a long sleep in the ground. Looking for the past may not be as sad and beautiful as "Everything Is Illuminated", nor is it necessarily as touching as Wu Nianzhen and First Love holding hands across the street in "Yi Yi". In fact, the result may be that the other party is inexplicably embarrassed and dumb and eats Huanglian. Depressed. In fact, loneliness can be a kind of incompetence, but it can also be a convincing force. Trying to do something often results in nothing.
If this is a thriller, then, after turning around, the protagonist still failed to find the murderer from the similar so-called clues. The last cleverness of Jamusch was left to the child with a pink ribbon on the bag, child After running away, it seemed as if he could hear a sigh or curse in the protagonist's heart.
Bill Murray fits this movie too well, this old guy is a complete sneer.
I forgot to mention that by the way, what attracted me was that Bill Murray wore a Fred Perry poster, and he turned out to wear two or three pieces, a middle-aged helpless man under the lens of Jamusch.
