    Urga: Iron Horse Glacier Comes to Dream

    Where the prairie once had a kulun, now a chimney is erected... 

    I especially liked the part where Sergey picked up the small badge and shouted at people in the ballroom: "Soul, this is our soul, two dollars apiece." He, who threw the badge out, laughed while laughing at the fact that...

    Please, don't use ideology as a big hat for such a good movie

    There are two sensitive topics in the film: China's family planning and minority policies. Coupled with the popular yearning for nature and primitive life, this film, which actually has no ideological connotations, can easily be explained formally by viewers through a certain ideology favored by...

    If you yearn for the steppe life, if you love the literature of the former Soviet Union, I recommend this movie to you

    If you don't have a little steppe and Russian complex, I think, you may be difficult to be attracted by this film. Because it does not have the beautiful tones of the legendary grassland green, the story seems to take place in the seasons of spring, summer or autumn and winter, and the picture...

    many bars

    During the class, the teacher asked to watch it. With the questions that the teacher asked to think about in his hand, watching the movie, I couldn’t understand Mongolian, and had to rely on English subtitles. I was a little rebellious about those questions in my heart, and watching the movie was...

    gorgeous loss

    People who live in history will have limitations in seeing the world, and "The Horse Pole" may be too. The year 1991 was a year of great shock to the Soviet Union and the world. There are too many confusions and contradictions in the movie, both from the movie and from the director. Maybe the...

    This is not our time

    If the world has to be described from the mouth, the Mongolians are not good at speaking and accept it silently, silently watching the Han people who speak the Northeast dialect make changes here, and they themselves are changing . Hulunbuir grassland is divided and covered with barbed wire like...

    A review of a good movie "Spirit of Mongolia"/"Urga" (1991). Reprinted from http://www.douban.com/review/1034773/

    This is a smooth and poetic film, there is no wonderful climax, let alone fierce conflict, the whimper echoing in the ear is like a call from the Hulunbuir prairie, requiring quiet thinking. It can be said that director Mikhalkov integrated surging passion and sad thoughts in "The Spirit of...

    Where are our roots?

    Where are our roots? This was the first question that came to my mind after watching "The Horse Rod". Can a child who has been lost for a long time find his way home? In the face of the impact of the Western world and our own man-made destruction, we seem to be facing a estrangement in history....

    The director should make a "spirit" series

    Such as "Spirit of Chad", "Spirit of Vietnam". I have thought about the outline of the story for him. It turned out that the people in that place lived a very primitive life, slash-and-burn farming, either chopping firewood and raising cattle in pastoral creeks, or grazing and hunting in the...

    Putting on a horse pole can't hold time

    Today is January 2020. The whole world is paying attention to the epidemic in China. It is drizzling and cold outside the window. Since China's reform and opening up, the quietest and calmest time in history has accompanied 1.4 billion Chinese people. Sitting in front of the computer, reading...
