First of all, if you think "Assassin Nie Yinniang" is a boring movie or even trash, don't watch this movie, because you will also find this movie boring and trash after watching it, so don't waste your time on it. .
Secondly, this film is not flattered and admired by the judges at the Cannes Film Festival because of director Godard's "Master Aura". It is indeed a very good film that is worth watching and thinking about repeatedly.
Finally, I hope that people who don't regard movies as entertainment, but who truly love the art of movies, watch this movie, it will bring you a different experience and thinking.
Chapter 11 of the Bible declares that at that time, mankind united to build a tower that hoped to lead to heaven; in order to prevent mankind's plan, God made mankind speak different languages, so that mankind could not communicate with each other, the plan failed, and mankind itself These scattered things.
This is the "Babel Dilemma" that attempts to explain the emergence of different languages in the world. Human beings are not only unable to speak due to differences in races, but also because of the defects of language symbols themselves, which cause everyone to communicate like chickens and ducks.
Any language or text will be discounted in terms of expression, or even directly invalid, so that many times language cannot accurately express our inner thoughts. For example: Can you tell me what "blue" is if you don't point at something blue? can not. Another example: You can explain to someone who has never eaten an apple what an apple tastes like, right?
Moreover, many people who live together will gradually get tired of the monotony of life and the dullness of each other, so that the two sides are often not on the same channel when communicating, and they disagree and dislike each other. Some people even ripped apart just because of a sentence or two, and even fought violently. The loss of people's communication mentality and the dislocation of words require a third-party medium to convey each other's "words", as the lines say: "Soon everyone will need to rely on translation to understand each other's words."
This is what Godard wanted to say: language, a useless thing, goodbye!
When you feel that you can't understand the messy, messy and trivial "non-narrative images" in "Goodbye Language", you may understand it this way: maybe he (Godard) deliberately made you unable to understand his expressions, only Only in this way can he express the "inexpressible" of human language.
The experimental film "Goodbye to Language" was shot very casually (at least it appeared to be so), like the director's casual street shooting when he went out to buy groceries, and then when he returned home and replayed the image, he found the image to be good, so he found a repairman who loves movies. The shoemaker helped with the editing. Although the shooting is casual, "the capture of light in the colored part and the combination of oversaturated colors are really pleasing to the eye", and the philosophical stream of consciousness lines that do not match the foreword and the latter are very inspiring and thought-provoking.
The "new wave" masters make movies so uncharacteristically, they use a casual attitude to confront the "unconventional rules" of mainstream movies, but to be honest, this is what your country's money-making directors need to learn.
