Frantz Reviews

  • Burdette 2022-12-10 04:49:58

    Sometimes a lie is what drives survival

    The film "Frantz" (Frantz) and "Rebecca" (Rebecca, also known as "Butterfly Dream"), both use the late protagonist as the title of the film. The protagonist is "absent", but "invisible" in the film all the time, giving the audience a huge sense of suspense and a black hole. As a French literary...

    Franz the dead

    At 6.0, the second half of the film is unsatisfactory, with Franz's name and meaning falling short at the end.

    Is Franz an anti-war movie? It seems not quite.

    I divided the film into two parts, the first half is when Adrien is in Germany, and the second half is when Anna goes to France to find...

    A lie is a net

    Unsolved entanglements, unsolved nets.

    Born because of the war, the net named "Franz" connects two unfamiliar groups, one is the grieving female protagonist and her parents, and the other is entangled with the male protagonist. .

    The male protagonist saw each other, but because of his own cowardice,...

    Anti-war film

    There are two stark contrast moments in the movie. Adrian went to a bar in Germany and Anna went to a bar in France. The people in the two bars sang the same songs praising the war, "Guardians of the Rhine" and "Marseilles". "Qu" makes no difference. They mournfully cherish the memory of their...

    Authorized Movies - Carmen's Pulling Account

    Buying flowers, passing by the shop window, not in the mood to buy new clothes. I found someone offering flowers. I found out that he was a foreigner and talked about French with my mother-in-law. , It shows that she loves her husband deeply and doesn't want to forget that he doesn't want to go to...

    Gentle and silent scars movie

    A gentle and silent scar film, full of the director's reflections on war and post-war trauma. The director connected the devastated post-war ruins, the numb German and French people and the subtle emotions between the German and French people in a casual way, constructing a world of silent pain....

    Expressing fraternity through same-sex ambiguity

    The clip of the male protagonist "remembering" the female protagonist's fiancé Franz was really ambiguous. For example, the still/bridge of the two playing the violin is a stalk of an early German gay film (refer to "Anders als die Andern" in 1919). I think the male protagonist fell in love with...

    Franz

    The story takes place just after the end of World War I, just after Germany's surrender in 1918. The movie cuts in from the perspective of the heroine Anna, who is just an ordinary woman who has experienced war. She lost her fiancé Franz in the war, and life has no color since then, or the world is...

    Affection itself is a tragedy

    Franz uses a unique black-and-white quality to tell the story of Anna, a German girl who lost her fiancé and lived with her fiancé's parents after the First World War, and met a mysterious French visitor next to her tombstone. Later, lies, family affection, love and patriotism are all intertwined...
