Watched Roy Anderson's 2019 movie About Endless tonight. It won the Best Director Award at the 76th Venice Silver Bear Awards.
This is a work that poetically interprets fragments of life. In it we watch the embarrassment, joy, embarrassment, or downfall of others. In a complete closed loop, the stagnation of time is both part of life and part of dreaming. Whether or not an extreme moment has been experienced, our memories of it are stored in a single scene. Specific light and color are reproduced on the screen with low desire. At this time, we have to admit that fragments are more real than the whole, poems are more real than images, and dreams are more real than reality.
Under the lens of Roy Anderson, loss of faith, jealousy of neighbors, chasing the bus, waiting for a lover, dancing on the street, tying up a person, losing the war, repairing the car, giving up enjoying the snow and choosing to drink alone are all unfolding and advancing in parallel. , constitute a panorama of people's lives. As the poster shows: People in love look down on the world. This pose determines that, in the eyes of the flying man, all these are ruins.
This is probably the most refined kind of film in the history of film, cherish ink like gold. Every shot is full of surreal flavors. About infinity, how can it be finished?
