The film directed by darren aronofsky, adapted from a novel by Hubert Selby Jr., describes the embarrassments of a group of people-drugs, illegal drugs, caffeine and dreams. Those "cold" pictures that reach people's hearts have extraordinary shocking power, so you'd better be careful of your stomach. The only positive effect of this film is that its tragic ending can make it among the propaganda against drugs. Although there are a lot of exciting scenes in the film, director Aaronov Ski doesn't just want the audience to enjoy it. His persistent search for the inner heart of the character completely gathers the soul of the film, and then you will know what shock is, so great that it is difficult to experience it again.
when the wind blows
in 1986, this seemingly tender cartoon tells the story of a rural couple who built a shelter to avoid the impending nuclear explosion in the war, but eventually died unconsciously under the poison of nuclear radiation, and finally analyzed the damage caused by the war to society and people from a personal level. The grandfather in the story accepted everything ZF told him, believing that the world is at peace now. How can there be nuclear radiation? Something you can't see or smell at all. In this way, an old couple spent their last days calmly and peacefully in a lie, neither feeling uneasy because of life or death, nor being involved in the war. Perhaps the most tragic part is that they think that nuclear war is no different from World War II. I thought that if I couldn't die in World War II, I could survive any war.
Dancer in the Dark 2
Since breaking the waves in 1996, director Lars von Trier has completely given up the fine beauty of genre films, and those forms accepted by most people are even unbearable for him. Breaking the waves, Dogville, Dancer in the Dark and even Mandalay, which is not very successful, all tell the stories of women. As the protagonists in the story, they all make meaningful choices without good results. They all want to help others, but because they are weak, they will always be bound by economic, gender and emotional reasons. And people around them will even make it difficult for them to give up their reputation or identity to accept those humble favors. "Dancer in the Dark" is not much different from other works, but the film's pain is particularly strong because of bjork's performance. She vividly interprets the pain and groans of a female migrant factory worker, and tells the story step by step of her fate of saving money for her son to treat eye diseases while she is rapidly going blind. Lars von Trier plans the rhythm of the story according to every tragic plot point in the script, so that he can convey bjork's misery and kindness to the maximum extent. Finally, it can touch people's hearts, but also because it is well controlled that every hope that is about to come true can be wiped out in an instant before the most gorgeous. But even though it is full of tragic plots, heartbreaking music and bjork's irreplaceable performance, Dancer in the Dark can still be called a "beautiful" movie.
The Patient: Bob Flanagan's Life and Death, Super Masochism 1997
Bob Flanagan died of cystic fibroma at the age of 43. He was a performing artist, but his performance was all about masochism and masochism. This alone was enough to scare away more than half of the audience. However, his amazing performance in kirby dick's documentary and the shock it brought to the documentary world are completely different. In the movie, as a way to test the limits of his body, Flanagan often uses some extreme methods to test the limits of pain, and even pierces his vulva (Baidu) stem with a needle. For such a film, not many people may want to see it, let alone watch it for the second time, but this film still retains Flanagan's own sense of humor and shows his courage in the period of injury.
Don't Swallow
In 1997, Gary Oldman once publicly stated that he would play the role of shit in movies like Air Force One because the generous salary in Hollywood enabled him to make his own movies. Although up to now, the only film he has written and directed is "Don't Swallow", but it already has a gloomy style comparable to that of mike leigh. Like Irrevocable, the film focuses on extreme factors such as drugs, rape, violence, etc., but the development of the story is not based on the classic "contradictions and conflicts", but is slowly completed by the trivial life of office workers in south London, and the living conditions of addicts and alcoholics are mixed together. It is full of multiple accents, which may be difficult to understand. In any case, I believe that not many people will watch the movie with such exhausting plot repeatedly.
Lilia Forever 22
Before Lilia Forever, Swedish director and screenwriter lukas moodysson filmed Under the Same Roof, which tells the story of a group of Swedish youths pursuing freedom in a chaotic form. And the later Lilia Forever is nothing more than continuing this story from another angle, discussing the contradictory relationship between people. With oksana akinshina's excellent performance and theme music that strives to be close to happiness, Lilia Forever still shows the audience the hopeful side of things, but the tragic scenes interspersed during the period are still lethal when they fade away in their minds, which still makes people unable to watch it again.
1999
"Deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper ……", the movie of takashi miike, the master of thriller, has countless iconic scenes, and ichi the killer and The Visitor Q are all classics that fans chasing Japanese Cult movies must see. However, the earlier "Pain in the Skin" is still widely recognized as his best work, and the contradictions and conflicts caused by the character's own personality characteristics are inevitably staged one after another, which makes people feel overwhelmed by waves of fear. The first half of the film may be misunderstood as a simple melodrama, but after the hero met a young woman and said that he would love her all his life, things went downhill. This young woman is not as simple as she looks, but she is extremely sick inside. She tries her best to torture this man in various ways, including the famous long and narrow needle. The birth of such a female image comes from the director's reflection on social criticism, which links the female problem with the cruel behavior with strong sexual meaning.
The Passion of Joan of Arc 1928
Von Tyre claimed that his films were largely inherited from his fellow countryman Carl Theodor Dreyer, especially his silent style in The Passion of Joan of Arc. This famous film tells the story of a woman who suffered endless torture for her beliefs and finally died. The reason why this film is unbearable is not because it shows many scenes of Joan's torture or the famous exaggerated performance of Maria Falconetti, but the clear wounds you see every time the camera is aimed at her face. This intense emotional disturbance was created by the director, who demanded that the basic film rules of Baidu system be completely met, and the photographer must construct a 18-degree spatial visual effect. Not only that, he can also confuse the logical relationship and emotional connection between the characters in the film, and drown out all the conflicts that push the story forward. The resulting confusion and strong feelings are mixed together, which really pushes the audience to an extreme mental test.
a word for you: don't take your taste too high. Since you make such a mean request to supplement it, you don't really love movies. You can ignore other people's answers, but don't think that we are all here for your grades, so mind your own business.
