The Polish film Tango, which won the 1982 Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film, has a single scene and many characters:
Teenagers, babies, old people, thieves, and lovers are in parallel in a small space, so closely connected but so lonely; games, eating, accidents, theft, stealing, from birth to death, seemingly boring, repetitive images perfectly interpret the connotation of tango:
Tango is everything.
In a poorly sounded screening room, Naked Tango (1990) gave me my first taste of the charm of Argentine tango:
So dangerous, so charming; full of betrayal of love, death came to let out an obsessive groan: "In your arms, I feel naked." ”
Argentine tango, like its football, is fierce, fierce and elegant, romantic, always ushering in reconciliation or climax in the most tense restrictions, provocations and conflicts, and the unique rhythm and rhythm are gripping.
Yo-Yo Ma recorded "Tango Soul": "Tango is not just a dance, it is an undercurrent in the abyss. In the evolution of Argentina, tango has become the soul of the country. ”
"Spring Dawn" 91997) Dance music together, the tango of style makes the dirty kitchen shine:
"The Last Tango in Paris" (1972), the male protagonist's crazy lovemaking and unscrupulous harm to the young lover are all released by the great pain of betrayal and suicide by his wife; the 19-year-old heroine in addition to the beautiful body, and Marlon Brando's acting skills, played a young girl who longs for love to moisturize:
Funny, crazy tango that sets the stage for the final shot:
There is a detail in Márquez's Love in the Time of Cholera, where Dr. Urbino asks Florentina if he likes music, and the latter thinks for a moment and replies, "I like Gödel." Born in 1890, Carlos Gödel set off a tango boom in Latin America and Europe with his music, known as the king of tango. Composed in 1935, "One Step Away" is lingering and turning, adding a lot to famous films such as "Smelling Women", "Schindler's List", "True Lies", "Rhapsody of the Black Shop" and so on.
The tango passages in Smell the Woman (1992) are as memorable as the protagonist's speech:
Robert Duval's Killer Tango (2002), the plot development fully follows the inner rhythm of tango, a soothing overture, confrontation, spying and entanglement, a thrilling step-by-step assassination:
The heroine's evaluation of the national standard tango is very interesting: "They threw their heads back desperately, as if they smelled something strange." ”
Perhaps unsatisfactory, "Free Tango" (2012), which won the Special Jury Prize in the Horizon Section of the Venice Film Festival, was unveiled at the Shanghai Film Festival. A fan rushed to the last train of the film festival and gave the film a three-star rating on Douban: "The tango tutorial in prison is the only highlight, the confrontation of strength between two men, full of rhythm, very good." ”
"Tango comes from the heart, it is about temptation, attraction, soul, suffering, anger, fragility, elegance, it is land and blood, it is freedom!" There is no freedom without restrictions, and the inside and outside of the prison presented in "Free Tango" symbolizes the characteristics of tango dance steps and some of its spiritual connotations: normative production forms, distinguishing tango from other arts, and the impulse to break through norms and yearn for freedom arises spontaneously.
It is not easy for the audience to figure out the relationship between the characters in the film. Fernand and Dominic are fellow inmates, and the latter is also the biological father of the former's son. Domi actively practices tango ———
Fernan was very excited: "Look, you even have a change of eyes. I have the same experience. When I was a kid, I got on my brother's motorcycle—"
The embarrassed Domi was furious: "You feel me? You feel my erection?! "It was a blast.
Fernand's wife, a nurse, met the shy prison guards during a dance class. She not only loves Fernand and Dominic, but also opens her arms to the kindness of the prison guards. The son tried to put an end to the chaotic life with a gun: "You've slept with every man, and that's the problem." ”
The prison guards felt that the only way to resolve the crisis was to take hostage and help the father of the child escape from prison.
Jailbreaking solves all the puzzles?
Tango covers everything, but it's that simple compared to life.
