The calm and wise old Jia seems to have no need to prove anything on various topics describing the lives of people at the bottom. For him, this is obviously a familiar subject matter. Therefore, even if there are too many "Jia's shots" and too many "Jia's humor" in "The Good Man of Three Gorges",...

It is said that it will not be long before the largest material movement on the surface of our planet, the Chinese Spring Festival. At the end of the year, people with their own thoughts, thirst for their thoughts and gluttony for the land, can't wait to return, rest, and then set off again....e

one.  The Good Man of the Three Gorges directed by Jia Zhangke, whose English name is Still Life, has won many awards, one of which is the most proud: the Golden Lion Award for Best Film at the 63rd Venice Film Festival. But I haven't watched it, maybe because the film itself is not gorgeous, the...

Last year, the teacher recommended this film, but I felt that some brothers and sisters participated in the production, so it should not be a good climate, so I didn't pay much attention to it. Yesterday was really boring, so I took a closer look. It kind of shocked me at the time...      Aside...

The emotions and pain that ordinary people have nowhere to express in the current society where the system is disintegrating seems to be the motif of Jia Zhangke's films. "The Good Man in Three Gorges" is expressed through silent shots, slow dialogue, and the ubiquitous whimper sound of the Three...

I rarely see Jia Zhangke-like films, which truly reflect the life of the people at the bottom. This is the life of my father's generation that I am familiar with. They are far away from the countryside and go to work in the city, no matter what kind of work they do, the kind of sloppy, silent...

The gangster with a toothpick in his mouth, sunglasses and imitating Xiaoma everywhere is a very interesting character in "The Three Gorges". Although there are not many shots, it is very brilliant. The little Ma, who is full of all corners of the country, is nostalgic for the years of fighting and...

"The Three Gorges" is Jia Zhangke's fifth feature film. It is different from the description of the urban-rural junction area in northern China, which is called "Fenyang Trilogy" in "Xiaowu", "Platform" and "Ren Xiaoyao", which has a color of personal experience. Yu's limited reflection of the...

If I remember correctly, the English name of Sanxia Good People should be still life instead of still life. However, whether it is the expression of the English name or the Chinese name, it can reflect the meaning of the film. I went to the Centennial Lecture Hall to see its early screening in...

After watching "The Good Man in the Three Gorges", I really didn't have that kind of shock. Those demolition and relocation are riddled with holes and damaged, and the people here have long been at peace. Immigrant immigrants, playing mahjong, and digging cultural relics. It is always the...
