The Last Picture Show Reviews

    S

    This is a low-key story with a low-key narrative. Throughout the film, the traces of the main line narrative are deliberately watered down, and the causal connection and context of the behavior are default. Merely in the flow of various plots, constantly remembering the unstoppable passing years....

    People living in memory

    After watching a movie for the first time, I feel like I want to cry, but I can’t squeeze a tear out. Sometimes black and white old movies have this kind of power. The lens looks like a light and windy lens, but it is like a soldering iron. The pain was born in my heart.      The young man in the...

    Time is like a song

    When Sonny watched Duane's car go away, in the windy western town, in the boundless world, only Sonny was alone. At this moment, I think The Last Picture Show is one of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen. The Last Picture Show has a stunning beauty. Nostalgic black and white light and...

    The passing western town

    The forgotten small town of Texas, full of wind and sand, is still a small society, unable to escape the same emotional entanglements, and unable to escape the depression after World War II and the influence of the Korean War. Everyone in the town has their own emotional story, and the life they...

    Just because it's too young

    "When the cinema is closed, there is not much to do in the town." The cinema used to be the best place for young people in the town, where they could make friends with their lovers or spend weekend nights. But not anymore: the last movie was John Ford's "Red River Valley". Western heroes like John...

    The Last Picture Show

    (Note: Serious spoilers, don't like it. Although this film itself has no plot.) This small town in Texas has been in decline for some years. The first shot of the opening scene is from right to left, panning past the deserted shops, the empty streets that have lost vitality, the wind and the sand...

    Don’t wait until the “cinema” closes to know how beautiful the “old days” are

    Color movies have become popular in the United States since the 1950s. However, black-and-white movies have not disappeared. Some directors will boldly abandon color images for artistic effects. "The Last Movie" in 1971 tells the story of a few American youths in a small town. Youth should be...

    It's coming, it's gone

    The scene at the beginning of the movie did not leave a deep impression on people. A horizontally shifted shot slowly sweeps across the empty street from right to left, and then freezes on a dilapidated truck. The person in the car was Sonny, who was trapped in the empty city. It was snowing...

    Only pick up today and have a good time

    Last Saturday, I was ordered to go to the district library to inquire about the free movie viewing situation. Entering through the front door with Kent and his beautiful colleagues, they found it in a conference hall on the left after some twists and turns. Arrived early. Sin.     The movie shown...

    Not sad or youthful

    For the 1971 film, the films recommended by Li Xun, who teaches foreign film history, are generally quite good, and they are also a bewildering youth theme. At that time, they were also nominated for multiple Oscars. They won two performance awards, the heroine Cybill Shepherd and the current one....
