Minimalism and the female perspective fit together quite comfortably in this work. Absorbed and improved the absurd temperament of Gus Van Sant's "Ruffian in the Desert", Yo La Tengo's soundtrack is not weak, and the photography is combined with the use of Naomi Kawase's "Funeral Forest" to depict...

Kurt and Mark grew up together in Portland, Oregon, and the pristine nature of the Cascade Mountains gave them a yearning for freedom and a peaceful life. However, with different life circumstances and choices, the two people who used to cherish each other and accompany each other have embarked on...

Reichardt likes to use radio broadcasts to render the era and status, as in "A Certain Woman" and in this film as well. There are media discourses about society and politics on the radio, and the state of the two men is also in line with the anxiety era under the bombardment of all kinds of...

The first brief period of confusion for most people comes when they graduate from high school, and the distance between old friends and themselves is extended to schools, cities and even countries. Along with this process are changes in preferences, circles of friends and outlook on life. Many...

After watching so many movies, I have no doubts about the healing effect of nature when I see people taking a bath so comfortably. At the beginning of this movie, the dialogue between the husband and wife is too real. Add the element of old friends, praise it. I don't know how the name of the movie...

Old Dreams is a typical low-budget independent film. The plot of the film is very simple: at Kurt's invitation, Mark leaves his pregnant wife for a two-day trip to the forest. Therefore, if you want to understand this film, it is not important to study what the plot is about, but how the film...

Landscape-led anti-road film. Delayed montage, defocused, hand-held photography, peeping shots, a series of new wave techniques bring a certain atmosphere. Although as a landscape-oriented film, the photobook-style natural landscape and soothing audio-visual language did not hide the tension...

After watching the video, I stayed in astonishment. How the director did it, in such a thin narrative, made me feel a huge emotion and was shocked. If the narrative is likened to oxygen, this key element of the film is truly suffocatingly thin. The director refuses to say anything, and the audience...

There are many ways to express emotions, especially in the world of images, each director with different personalities has his own way to express the feelings of the characters. It may be the urban ambiguity and alienation in Wong Kar-wai's films, or it may be Wim Wenderspoor's search, or the...
