    Dispersion and Dialects

    Originally published in the Spring/Summer 2020 issue of Art World

    The spatial coordinates of The Gathering at South Station are ambiguous. In contrast, it has a clear time coordinate - 2009, China before the two circulation/control methods of high-speed rail and WeChat were fully taken over. The "south" here is the absence of the north, the departure of Diao Yinan from the center after the filming of North China and the Northeast, and a...

    Dorian Gray: Beauty is the miracle of miracles

    "Beauty has the divine right to rule, and whoever owns it is the prince."
    - Oscar Wilde

    "Dorian Gray", a 2009 British film, a beautiful drama. Because it was adapted from Oscar Wilde's only novel, a wonderful work that has written beauty to the extreme and into the bone marrow. Some are amazed, some are contemptuous, those who love it are stunned, and those who hate it are...

    Movies for Psychology Students (Spoilers!)

    This movie was recommended to me by a classmate. There is a full episode on Youtube, so I watched it. The plot is a bit slow, but the overall feeling is not bad, and the ending is quite untouchable. The characterization is a bit blunt and masked. For example, a reasonable mother-in-law accepted the daughter-in-law who killed her son without much struggle at first. For example, the wife of some indifferent and selfish psychiatrist who hardly cares about her husband in the whirlpool, and the...

    Politics, let dreams turn into nightmares

    This film is actually very suitable for those of us who have just come out of the society, or who are about to go out of the society. Stephen is also a young man with a dream, but in this political world of open and secret fights, Stephen was betrayed and used by reporters who claimed to be friends. He even knew that the candidate he helped was actually a two-faced person, and immediately let him Losing the blood of the original intention, he has become a reality.

    Some Points

    1. Blizzard Villa mode, the general plot is nothing more than a few situations: the murderer has been successfully hiding in the crowd to wait for an opportunity to kill and survive to the end; there is more than one murderer, and the crime is coordinated (this kind of plot is generally very disappointing) or the previous murder case. The murderer was then killed by someone else (the most tangled situation); the murderer faked his own death to gain ample room for crime...

    Films for myself - Super8 and ET

    You can say that JJ has lost his skills in creating suspense and atmosphere in this film, or he can say that he has turned all kinds of elements in this film. But I am convinced that this is the movie he really wants to make. A movie for himself, a movie for his childhood.
    I believe that the boy in the film carries his shadow. From an ordinary background, he is obsessed with movie creation, keen on all kinds of weird secrets and aliens, looking forward to extraordinary adventures, but also...

    What are the things worth thinking about the character of Joker in "The Dark Knight"?

    Moral nihilism.

    The Joker took advantage of the fragility of morality in the face of reality to defeat the police department and the citizens of Gotham who did not care about justice, and he used this process to defeat Harvey Dent, who insisted on justice.

    The police and citizens are ordinary people, and they do not pursue too much justice and morality, but everyone still has some basic bottom lines. restrain yourself. But in fact, when the situation is really critical, morality...

    something will happen

    If you are also in pain, then you can definitely understand that happy people will probably feel inexplicable. Speaking of wonderful, there are several wonderful places in the whole film, which show the trivial helplessness of life vividly and vividly. It's like doing a major surgery for observation, which shows the fragility and helplessness of people in reality. Everyone ignores the person who cleans the glass in the film. In fact, everyone pays attention to him, let alone the person who...

    Once upon a time

    Found this movie in the category of horror movies. Probably the horror of it lies in the "most poisonous woman's heart".
    The male protagonist's stance has always been firm, and I love the days when I play with you, but we can't go on. How can a man who is merciless and ruthless continue to live unharmed at the end of the movie? The screenwriter and director have too much tolerance for this scumbag. However, it should be the name of the movie "Dark Side". Perhaps his ruthlessness is also...

    The handling of the black police is really Villeneuve

    One of my favorite Villeneuve movies I've seen so far. If you don't take the usual path, what the audience wants to know, he just won't let you know. The audience has lost the authority of God's perspective, and they are as confused as the heroine to find answers in it. But when the answer is in front of you, it is often better not to know the truth. It is an anti-routine crime film, and the fact that another gang of drug dealers is hunted to maintain a black and white...

    They still haven't become friends

    I've always been interested in women's movies and TV shows. It's the same thing when I started chasing "The Enemy" this time. In the era drama, the old drama bones acted the old drama bones, and the audience's acting skills were very exciting.
    In the first two or three episodes, when I watched Betty and Joan tearing apart, I felt very refreshed and happy, but the more I went to the back, the more I felt the loneliness in their hearts. They were like two hedgehogs, very fragile inside....

    over acting

    Too typical Hollywood, I can't get more than four stars here. All three stars here go to Adams. It's no longer a matter of aesthetic fatigue for Aunt Streep, but a disgust. I don't know if it is because of the number of Oscar nominations, but she is like the famous Chicago Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Solti. When members gradually realize that their orchestra is the best symphony orchestra in the world, they often ignore the original music and become playing for the sake of...

    The world changes because of you

    This title is like the title of Kai-Fu Lee's book. In fact, that's not what it means here. It's just that I like this title.
    This movie was recommended to me by my little babe. I have always disliked this kind of movies that travel through time and space, and even a little disgusted, a little artificial, a little pseudo-romantic, but this movie is quite likable and a successful Love light comedy.
    The storyline is very simple, a simple and old-fashioned story of Cinderella meeting the...

    "Hiding the Sky: The Beauty's Tale" is mediocre but cool and it's over

    Just like the OCEAN series, it gathers a group of Hollywood big shots to play high-tech theft, pure commercial films that can no longer be pure.

    Even the plot is very familiar: getting out of prison - finding friends - gathering people - making plans - preparations - implementing plans - success. The female version is obviously weaker than the male version, and there is no villain. 100% of the experts are found, 100% of the experts are recruited, and they are not worthy of female...

    Thinking about Justice - Talking about Air Prisons


         Recently, it seems to be particularly interesting for iron-blooded movies. Since I watched the first drop of blood last time, this time I happened to see this exciting movie-Prison in the Air. This movie was originally placed on the network disk of the school's English voice computer, but I found it by accident, and then the four English self-study classes were naturally spent in the movie world.
            By the way, this is the first time I've seen a movie played by Nicolas Cage....

  • Granville 2023-08-20 14:10:44

    John Ford’s epic of civilian life is full of nostalgia and homesickness, simple and tender, sentimental and beautiful. Defeated [Citizen Kane] at multiple Oscars. Although the artistic value and significance of film history are not as good as the latter, it has its own old-school and classical charm. Ford transplanted his Irish family experience to a family of Welsh miners: a father who is dignified, orderly and respectful of the individual, a rustic and gentle and flexible mother, a sister who pursues true love but ultimately obeys her husband, and a hard working underground but also supports the union. Bros. The priest who is dedicated to the priesthood and has the ideal of inspiring mediocrity with good words is the moral center. While emphasizing and reminiscing the past idyllic life and traditional values ​​(family, Christianity, honesty and diligence, justice and goodness), the bitterness and sadness can not be concealed from time to time: Industrialization and capital expansion have crushed everything, and labor and capital conflicts have multiplied. , The green mountains are no longer, the faith is lost, the family is disintegrated, only after bidding farewell to yesterday, the people and things that have passed away can be preserved in the memory. Newman's soundtrack is excellent, a chorus of ballads flows into my heart, and the deep focus photography and lighting are also exquisite. (8.5/10)

    Watching the movie directly will always have a feeling of fast-forwarding the plot. The settings of Kawai and Nao Ye are also disgusting. One is that I don't know anything and I am an innocent bitch. In fact, I want to know if Jiang and later were not bullied, would he feel that what he had done was wrong and hurt others and should make up for it. Bullying is really scary. 2 and a half stars.

    This can be said to be my favorite movie~Because it reminds me of my childhood, it feels good to like someone~

  • Granville 2023-07-23 13:19:37

    It's exquisite from start to finish, and the storytelling is very smooth. Sometimes there is really no need for complicated plots, beautiful pictures and voices, and characters full of innocence and aura are enough for a perfect animation. Softer and therefore lighter than the previous "Secret of Kells". Impeccable!

    Although the film is messy, Caleb Landry Jones is definitely a magical existence, and it does not violate the harmony anywhere.

    In terms of plot, please understand the limitations of the times. Real case adaptation + character reversal + unknown ending + literary soundtrack, no wonder everyone gave it five stars.

    A grotesque killer, an infatuated lover, and an adventurous and fearless dreamer, Warren Beatty plays Benny too well. The two lines of love and dreams are well presented, and love is especially wonderful. Praise Warren Beatty again, still as free and easy as in "The Male and Female Thieves"

  • Granville 2023-06-24 18:06:12

    It’s a pity that the god-level setting is a small investment, and the blandness of the plot ruins a god setting! It feels really blunt to be able to fool the replicators by going out and pretending to be. There is simply no reversal.
