Not long ago, the young master discovered a book called "Satan Tango", and when looking for information about the book, he found that someone had adapted the book into a movie of the same name, and it lasted more than 7 hours, and the director was Bella Tarr, the director of "The Horse of Turin", who had seen me scared
Tarr said: "I hate color movies because it's always fake. Green is not really the green of nature, red is like a little bit of blood, there is always something wrong, so I only make black and white movies, using black and white two pure colors. At first you may feel a little manneristic, but soon you will find that this is the real color of the movie. ”
Black and white movies do have his unique style, I also like black and white movies more than color movies, and "Satan Tango" is a black and white movie that belongs to Bella Tarr, once I didn't know how to appreciate his films, I would fear the "Horse of Turin", and now I am enjoying the life journey of "Satan Tango".
The film stretches all the shots to the limit, and in the first shot, there is only one herd of cattle in the picture for ten minutes, and each shot is so desperate that people are breathless. From beginning to end, the film is constantly stormy, crazy rainstorms, endless humidity, the whole town is silent, people are at the mercy of life, suffocating, chaotic.
Animals have always been a necessary element of Bella Tarr's films, cows, sheep, pigs, cats, each animal represents a certain meaning of life, especially the cat in "Satan Tango" I still regret, was poisoned by the little girl in the film, half an hour described the death process of this cat, sacrificing moral qualities for the necessary artistic effects, which in my opinion director Bella Tar is the Satan.
In terms of the story itself, Illemias led the villagers out of the village for profit, but the results were not satisfactory, Illemias deceived everyone, the villagers eventually returned to a poor life, and the thinness of life was vividly displayed in the film. Tal immersed me in this journey of life hinted at by death for more than seven hours.
To this day I have the ability to watch boring films, whether it is Tarkovsky or Aaron Renai, so I also have the ability to enjoy Satan Tango, and this film has brought me far more than seven hours of seeing, which has allowed me to think more about the meaning of life and have the courage to pick up The Horse of Turin again and see the spiritual world of Bella Tar.
