"The Next So-hee"

The film was the closing film of last year's Critics Week section of the Cannes Film Festival. Suhee in the film is a girl who died under great pressure by a black heart company PUA, abandoned by school, and a female criminal police officer began to investigate the cause of her death. This work plays the advantages of Korean films that always focus on real problems, the breadth and intensity of social criticism are in place, and it can be called a purely female film.
"Small World"
Director: Bass DeVos
Genre: Drama
This year's Beijing Film Festival screening unit selected Belgian director Bas DeVos as one of the focus filmmakers, and will exhibit his works such as "Small World", "Tropical Soul", "Next Stop, Hell", "The Death of a Cycling Boy" and so on. This "Small World" tells the story of a Romanian migrant worker and a doctor of Chinese biological sciences who meet by chance and spark a romantic spark because of moss. The film shows the small and deep infinite world of moss, which is very artistic conception of "one flower and one world, one leaf and one bodhi" in oriental aesthetics.
"Rouge Button" (4K)
Director: Guan Jinpeng
Genre: Drama/Romance/Fantasy
This year, the Beijing Film Festival launched a number of restored versions of classic films, and the Chinese love classic "Rouge Button" is one of them. Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui not only vividly showed the four words "Peerless" on the screen, but also exposed the fragility and stubbornness in love with a poignant story.
Poems (4K)
Director: Li Cangdong
Genre: Drama
South Korean director Lee Cang-dong teamed up with "goddess-level grandma" actor Yoon Jing-hee, and this story about how to write a poem was filmed deeply and charmingly. The film hides fierce emotions in the long calm, on the surface it tells the poetic life of the literary grandmother, but behind it lurks great cruelty, crime and hidden pain, reflecting Korean society.
"Smoking Causes Cough" (4K)
Director: Quentin Dupieu
Genre: Comedy
If you're extremely disgusted by the superhero movies that are so widespread these days, this somewhat nonsensical tokusatsu film is sure to get you a lot of fun. The film makes a very good satire on superhero movies through the story of a group of "tobacco avengers" to engage in team building, and carries the anti-genre to the end, absurd and funny.
"In the Water"
Director: Hong Changxiu
Genre: Drama
The latest work of prolific director Hong Changxiu was shortlisted for this year's Berlin Film Festival Meet Unit. The film is a story about making a movie, about a young actor who turns into a short film. There are a lot of defocus lenses in the film, don't suspect that something is wrong with the equipment when watching, this is the style! Hong Changxiu's chatter, embarrassment and humor in daily life, and the poetry of inspiration are all shown in the film.
La Dolce Vita(4K)
Director: Federico Fellini
Genre: Drama/Comedy
The masterpiece of Italian film master Fellini tells the story of a middle-class journalist who struggles and eventually degenerates in a decadent, empty life. Life in the upper class may seem sweet, but it is full of spiritual loneliness and spiritual anxiety. The scenes of the film are magnificent and detailed, like scrolls, full of masterful atmosphere, and the expression contained in them is not outdated even after so many years.
"Young and Vigorous" (4K)
Director: Paolo Sorrentino
Genre: Drama/Comedy
Sorrentino, one of the directors of "Three Italian Heroes", explores philosophical reflections on life, past, future, loneliness and so on through two accomplished elderly people hanging out at the resort. The film scenes are gorgeous, the composition is exquisite, and there are humorous and interesting golden lines from time to time, and the performances of the two old actors are also very good.
"Tal" (Dolby Atmos)
Director: Todd Field
Genre: Drama/Music
Although "The Great Devil" Cate Blanchett lost to Michelle Yeoh in this year's Oscar battle, this does not mean that her performance in "Thal" is very average. On the contrary, the "Great Devil" interprets the unscrupulous and high-ranking conductor master in the film to a divine performance. Do women have to be as successful as men? How can people control themselves in the face of power and fame? How to view the imbalance of talent and morality of artists? After enjoying this wonderful work, there should be a lot of thinking.
"Holiday After Sun"
Director: Charlotte Wells
Genre: Drama
Last year's stunning debut at the Cannes International Film Festival was directed by Scottish-born writer Charlotte Wells. The film tells the heroine to recall a vacation she spent with her father when she was 11 years old 20 years ago, portraying the feelings between parents and children in prosaic trivial matters. Although the story is very personal, the film's unique and refined aesthetic style and skillful directing skills have captured the hearts of many fans, and the sad and delicate emotions are more evocative.
"Intimate"
Director: Lucas De Holt
Genre: Drama
Two 13-year-old boys, a close friendship, an irreparable loss... The film was shortlisted for last year's Cannes main competition. The director shot the most heart-wrenching story of youth in the brightest tones, and the film also explored topics such as sexual awakening, school bullying, and gender stereotypes.
Casablanca
Director: Michael Curtitz
Genre: Drama/Romance/War
Ingrid Bergman's stunning appearance, the war-torn love triangle, and the beautiful song "As Time Goes By" have made this movie a must-see classic for generations of fans. The film combines the historical events of the big time with the emotional world of small people, penetrates into the depths of the human heart, and reveals the preciousness and greatness of true love.
The Shawshank Redemption
Director: Frank Dragonte
Genre: Drama/Crime

This movie can stand the test of time and has ranked first on major movie websites such as Douban, Time Network, and IMDb for many years.
2001: A Space Odyssey (IMAX)
Director: Stanley Kubrick
Genre: Sci-Fi/Thriller/Adventure
As a science fiction film recognized as the most profound and philosophical meaning, the status and significance of this work in film history need not be said. You don't have to look at the classics or have to understand it, just quietly feel and enjoy everything Kubrick has given us.
"Manhole Cover"
Director: Xiong Kiri and Ka
Genre: Drama/Thriller
The midnight section of "Beijing Screening" is a favorite of horror thriller fans. This Japanese thriller just released this year unfolds in a single scene like Dark Well, and there can be many reversals in addition to the thrill, and the viewing scene should be particularly good, right?
