In this magical South Asian land, the Chinese movies broadcast on TV at 1:30 in the middle of the night are nothing more than Murdoch's family from Shaw Brothers. The Hong Kong films of the 1970s dug out of the company's warehouse, the only value for me to watch movies are Zheng Shaoqiu, Jackie Chan, Chow Yun-fat, and their faces with no folds and acne marks.
I was looking forward to this, and when I saw Liu Ye's thin and tall figure, I didn't know whether to hold down the throbbing cautious liver, or to stifle a scream that would attract the landlord in my throat. Literary accents say that it was a heavy happiness like the unexpected encounter of old friends.
Even if it's only for Liu Ye, it's worth recommending.
A small investment in literary and artistic films is easy to lose at the starting line. When I saw the occasional freeze frame with inaccurate focus, I thought unkindly, whether the investment was paid by the big name film, so that even a good photography team could not be hired. The lack of picture composition and the jerky movement of the mirror to a certain extent, even if the TV version cuts the picture narrower, it will not be like this. The tone of the film seems to be dark, and dark tones are actually very easy to form a strong style. The director is not, he prefers to be in the sun often, and it is messy in the sun. I would rather believe that people have a personality and don’t fall out of the way, but I don’t need to talk to middle school students. The composition is similar: when one goes to Beijing, it becomes dark; when one goes to the United States, it becomes bright; when one thinks wildly, one becomes dark, and when one is happy, one becomes bright. At the climax of the film, the camera can no longer be tense, it is so unclear and not dark.
The picture of "Dark Matter" is dominated by the story, rather than actively expressing the story, and the picture that could have been "like dew, like electricity, like a dream bubble" was made into a TV series.
If this level of production can be successful, it is better to use good steel on the blade. The audience can stand everything, except Merrill's sturdy acting skills, and even if they can, they can't stand Liu Ye's resentful eyes.
This is not a movie that needs to be taken away from the self. The director's pursuit of resonance is almost deliberate. It seems to him that everything in the picture is the appearance, the resonance is the real thing, the characters can resonate, the details can shape the characters well, and the good actors can play the details.
Washing feet may be more representative of Chinese culture than Peking Opera.
In foreign countries, there are only people who don’t watch Peking Opera, and those who don’t wash their feet when they come. Especially when you are a guest, you can’t always ask to soak your feet in other people’s homes, you can only hide and shove it, it’s uncomfortable; it’s uncomfortable to see a foreigner go to bed without washing your feet or taking a bath; ordinary people in India don’t have a water heater. When I woke up in the morning, the host urged me repeatedly to "take a shower while the sun didn't heat up the tap water." I refused, they would also feel uncomfortable; uncomfortable. I once thought that on that day, people all over the world would get up early to take a shower and wash their feet before going to bed, and the world would be in harmony.
The cultural chaos encountered by overseas Chinese in the United States or in India is of course not the same, but the least universal chaos itself is the most universal. related. Face-to-face is the distance of the end of the world, can't justify, can't do anything. The subtlety of "Dark Matter" is to show this sense of powerlessness, whether it is the scene of Liu Xing's roommate washing and wiping his feet, or the boring expressions of foreign students passing by in the Peking Opera Theater, only those who have a heart can discover and record them, and those who have the pain can only find and record them. Can chew out the taste.
The English of scrambled eggs must not be "fried egg", nor "scrambled egg", "omelet" is close, but not completely similar.
Beat the eggs and fry them in the hot oil in a frying pan. Gently flip the egg liquid to make it heat evenly to expand. Stir fry it on high heat until it turns golden brown.
I don't believe it, otherwise how many chefs would there be in the country!
Most Chinese adult bachelors have faced the test of this question. No matter where in the world, you must be in a fire to be happy, and you must be a frying pan to be exciting. In front of Chinese-style scrambled eggs, the pan, oven, cheese, butter... all can't work. The director clearly understands that people's memory of scrambled eggs is so vivid that using the lens of Liu Xing's mother scrambled eggs to render his family background will not create a sense of thinness in the slightest. Just such a small detail can evoke a group's memory of home, which is foolproof.
The cunning of the defense committee is that when they hit the respondent in the head, they do not directly refute the thesis point of view, but criticize the methodology used. The embarrassing scene of Liu Xing's defense is almost empathetic. Only those embarrassed who have experienced "methodological hegemony" are called scientists, like "The Big Bang Theory", no!
Liu Xing has lived by my side and on myself—except for his poor English, and the youthful novel-like setting of "the first and second place in the major of Peking University", his confidence, Hope, simplicity, anxiety, impatience, depression... aren't we all too familiar? The hardships of studying are usually not so violent and unexpected. Generally, there is neither a very deep pool of water nor a big game of chess behind them... but is just so trivial and troubled. Struggling in hotter water. "Dark Matter" tells an almost appalling story of a young Nobel Prize-winning talent being persecuted by authority, not even the visible part of the starry sky, but probably just dust on a telescope. I think the reason for telling such a story is that the simpler the cause and effect, the more powerful it is.
The story is still the skin, and the emotions expressed are the truth.
To survive in society, one has to fight with reality, and in school, one has to fight with truth. The more high-profile and vigorous love, the more likely it is to die prematurely; the more lofty the truth is, the more unreachable the truth is. I guess, this is the last discovery Liu Xing made before he went to a dead end. This discovery overwhelmed him, and he tore himself apart.
