Watch "What Time Are You Over There"

Pretty good, pretty pretty good. The background lighting in the film is always full of tension in the picture. Although all of them are fixed shots, in fact, the flow of shots has been achieved through artistic design. The atmosphere of the whole movie is like: you never wake up in the night when you don't know what time, and you can vaguely hear the sound of cars on the long road in the distance. The almost perfect loneliness in it is like a quiet and self-contained plant. The car is driving on the road with the headlights on, and the person in the car seems to be you, even so, it is all someone else's business.

    I read it fourteen years ago... Now that I think about it, it's a lonely story. From Lang Xiong, who was unanswered at first, to Li Kangsheng, who dialed the bell, to the heroine, they were all lonely. Staring at each other on the subway platform, I have experienced it myself in Paris. The scene at the end of the Tuileries Garden is Cai Mingliang's last tenderness. Also, Ye Tong's charming and sexy femininity is really underestimated! ! !

    It is my favorite Tsai Ming-liang. The design of the scenes and shots are almost the same as those of the two films I watched before. I probably realized Cai Mingliang's style. After the heroine went to Paris, it became very interesting. Two characters, one is in a different place, the language barrier leads to aphasia and loneliness, the other Being in my hometown, unable to communicate with others, also caused aphasia and loneliness, and there were many cross-cuts between the two. In the end, the setting of the magical reality was simply magical. When I was looking at the works of the students in our school before, one of the works left a deep impression on me, that is, a fixed camera shot of a person sitting and eating bread for ten minutes, and reading poetry in the last few minutes. Now I know this is what I learned. Department (Bi Gan, studying Poetry), it is better not to imitate this kind of student works.
