I know through my soul and body that the fall is necessary. I must experience greed, I must chase wealth, I must experience nausea, I must fall into the abyss of despair. Learn to love the world, no longer to be compared with some kind of desire and imaginary world, some kind of hypocritical perfect fantasy. Learn to accept the world as it is, love it, and rejoice in belonging to it.
- Hesse, "Siddhartha"
Greek director Angelopoulos film "Dust of Time": Dust with Light
▷ Bodhi's Evil Flower
Greek director Theo Angelopoulos's "Eternal Day", which is a bit of a temperamental literary film, is still a matter of time, "push open a door, outside the door is the beautiful wife of thirty years ago; along a river, on the shore stands Solomos who returned to Greece." For example, the bus shuttle made in the morning, empty, to a certain station in the park, hula are free tickets for the elderly, at this time, Twilight understands, never too far.
After filming "Eternal Day", Angelopoulos basically stopped filming and rested until he accidentally read the relevant text of the Greek trilogy, and decided to continue filming after being touched. It is estimated that another reason is that Angelopoulos also experienced life during the Great War and the Civil War, and he glimpsed himself in those words, so he added some of his own childhood experiences to the Greek trilogy.
In the trilogy, the first saucer to be found was the second "Dust of Time", and the other two were "Weeping Prairie" and "Eternal Return". The characteristic picture of the Greek film is very beautiful, the heavy history is hidden in the poetry of Anzhe's sadness, the master's twilight confusion, the time is staggered, and finally after watching the second part, I found that the sadness is a love triangle.
Look at the subtitles of the outer film itself, and the eyes are too tired. Coupled with the sunshine in the living room at noon, the urging of firecrackers on a good day downstairs, the music of the newcomer, and then a little trance, the time and place in the film constantly cross the conversion, the more blurred and unclear things of the clouds disappeared, in the dull and obscure irritability to the balcony, just saw the new bride on the back of a red umbrella groom downstairs, this day is fast.
An zhe likes to use water to end everything, including life, but the old man is old, no one can look at other people's stories outside the time, fortunately know that these good music belongs to Bach, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, no matter how awkward and depressed, people can not reconcile with time after all.
I also have a story of light and shadow, the alleys of locust flower alleys, the characteristic bluestone slab roads of the small cities of northern Anhui, the low-hanging fragrance of locust flowers in spring, the slow time in the afternoon, the swaying shade, and the crunchy cries of children are crushed. The same trance, in the eyes of Anzhe's "Dust of Time", those characters who shuttle back and forth, intermittent music, I am afraid that they will collide with everyone's experience, and eventually transcend reality and dust with light.
Floating is the ashes of time, like the endless fluff of spring, and then summer arrives, and suddenly, the wool begins to wander for the next season. The master has not got rid of the cliché, affection has always been disappointed, only thin affection will be repeatedly missed, movies or life, when you are in love with someone or something, the result of affection is doomed to be slim and full of tragedies.
The love story of two men and a woman, with the political persecution of the turbulent and turbulent exile from the Soviet Union, the heroine and the lover are separated from each other, meet and reunite, the old love is rekindled, the grace and love, the good night is short, the heavenly jealous lover, can only be separated, and then the heroine meets another idiot man, the money is affectionate, the yin and yang are wrong, looking for, creating and making people, turning thousands of times, and finally failing to relive the old dream.
Looking at the cycle of reincarnation of life, it is not deliberately arranged by God, but his improvised sketches. In On Laocoön, Lessing said, "The present embraces the future and the past." It is the same as what Anzhe said in "The Dust of Time", "The ashes of time, landing on the earth, no matter how big or small, annihilate everything." ”
