Big production

This morning, I flipped through in the car to work. This is the first time I tried to buy other movie magazines after buying for many years. Details, but the amount of content is not small.

chatting about something else.

Mainly in "Universal Screen" I saw two films that swept the European film circle in 2006, one was called "Other People's Lives" and the other was called "Return". It turns out that "Other People's Lives" is another translation of "Eavesdropping Storm".
Fortunately, I listened to the recommendations of experts and experienced these two movies early, and I didn't spend money in vain, nor did I expect them in vain. For me, this is a very difficult thing in the DVD era.

They don't have big-budget gimmicks or fancy looks, but I can't help but call them big productions. "Eavesdropping Storm" is based on a piece of history, with a clear main line and unexpected but unexpected plot, and finally unpretentiously provocative. The biggest gimmick of "Return" is the famous director and many famous female No. 1s. Everyone's plays are very eye-catching, but it seems that the unity of nature and man brings the audience into the truth of the facts and the grand theme. They are all classics. It's the kind of movie you'd be content with after getting a DVD.

We need works like this. It can still make you feel pure and beautiful in a dirty world.
Suddenly I remembered what the perverted teacher who scolded every one of my classmates once said: In art, in the end, it is personality.

What do our many works that give people expectations and disappointments, many works that are overhyped, and many works that use filth as art and detachment from reality as their personality?

    Mue's performance is so amazing. It seems that they all have the same expressions and actions, but they can see completely different moods and temperaments. The eyes reveal subtle changes and psychological upheaval. Of course, the language of the film must be more in place. The rhythm is as cold as the tones, and the artist's room is warm. Art finally warms the coldest reason. What is touching is not having the slightest regret for doing the right thing. "This is for me" burst into tears

The Lives of Others quotes

  • Georg Dreyman: The state office for statistics on Hans-Beimler street counts everything; knows everything: how many pairs of shoes I buy a year: 2.3, how many books I read a year: 3.2 and how many students graduate with perfect marks: 6,347. But there's one statistic that isn't collected there, perhaps because such numbers cause even paper-pushers pain: and that is the suicide rate.

  • Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: Madam?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: Go away. I want to be alone.

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: Madam Sieland?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: Do we know each other?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: You don't know me, but I know you. Many people love you for who you are.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: Actors are never "who they are."

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: You are. I've seen you on stage. You were more who you are than you are now.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: So you know what I'm like.

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: I'm your audience.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: I have to go.

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: Where to?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: I'm meeting an old classmate. I...

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: You see? Just now, you weren't being yourself.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: No?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: No.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: So you know her well, this Christa-Maria Sieland. What do you think - would she hurt someone who loves her above all else? Would she sell herself for art?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: For art? You already have art. That'd be a bad deal. You are a great artist. Don't you know that?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: And you are a good man.
