The film is impressive, the title is impressive, Palme d'Or 1998, Bruno Ganz, all that, and after a catastrophe referring immodestly Fellini, Tarkovsky, with a few winks to Wings of Desire. Besides these two films have in common the same ambition: to give the feeling of life, here the sense of loss and therefore its value, upgrade, enhance the image of life is a little ambition Secret Cinema, otherwise we would not tell stories about nothing, the two films one succeeds where Eternity and a day errs a bit much.
Cinema must be tricky, if he wants to talk about rights as we speak in an essay with a capital of bad taste, it does not show abruptly, or melancholy, or nostalgia, or loneliness and let alone indulging in furthering what he describes as One scratched up bloods corner of itchy skin. Exactly you will notice that good replicas are always too short and always stop at the right time, there's never enough never too much. Anyway the film owes nothing to show but this show to suggest this, and when it is suggested it guards against such excesses.
Why not show? Because the viewer decide whether to show the loneliness tantamount to the viewer to identify with the loneliness and well tomorrow I turn my film and I film Emile playing on his computer all day. Show is nothing to allow the viewer. I do not like the "genius" authoritarian, one that I do not know by what means you understand that he is aware of the alleged beauty of what it shows, leaving no place for the viewer supposed to move freely within the work. A bad director is one who does not understand that cinema is in the interaction and there are two openings: the eyes open, open body of the viewer to the screen but the screen open, available to the viewer. So do not appoint him to the tune of flashing arrows here must cry here must roll over in pain. Two openings are two possible blindness: the viewer does not "see" the movie, the movie does not see the viewer.
A good film is a film where everybody cries (I take the extreme example of the tears of emotion to speak in general) but when we realize that no one wept at the same time: this movie was so moving, it was a masterpiece but everyone was crying but by passing over. I always cry for no reason during a movie because the movie does not give us reasons to cry but opportunities because the opportunities are seized or you do not understand is what guarantees freedom the viewer, and these opportunities depend on the provisions of each. The consensus suggests that Eternity and a day is suspect, it is worthless.
how to feel lonely if not by showing it? Well it should do otherwise, he must be smart, you have to make detours. It is the pornography of the emotions, which shows all, who said, that takes even takes the viewer by the hand, "you put yourself there, you feel it, "and then there's the gentle genius, the eroticism of emotion, who knows that pushing a little there, by doing that caress and tickle I can produce the same effects, I can cry.
give the feeling of life is necessarily give to see the unconsciousness with which people live it, is to make films like Robert Altman, a cinema "naturalistic" as they say. The artifice succeeds anything until it fails to restore this unawareness, this profusion of life, words, faces and bodies that are announced without politeness before us, who do not say anything important, do nothing important. But I think that is the most specific, most trivial, drags the viewer is led to believe that a scene is essential and beautiful. In contrast, talk of universal allegory proceed as does Theo Angelopoulos is inevitably reach the laughable caricature, an advertising agency in life that involves the figure of the Child's Birth , Women, the Old, the poet, without understanding that the world is mixed, there is a subtle sort of division of the business of living as there is a division of labor. It is particularized, so that you specialize unlike any of these full and noble figures. We do nothing of integers then the film does not show completely, but reveal a little, show a peg leg to suggest or evoke the loneliness at the corner of a replica that casually said of solitude . The film does not compete with literature, with its immediacy, with greed and deprivation with which it approaches the truth, the cinema is an art of mediacy, slow, process, which must operate by general impression rather than brilliance. To speak of man we must first talk about the man.
The few scenes where the film works are pale Copies of the most intense scenes of Wings of Desire where Bruno Ganz, fallen angel, discovered the blood, coffee, and that is that having cold, where he tends a sandwich to the child in Eternity and a day.
This film approached me in its purest form what I call selfishness nostalgic, the character is haunted by his memories to him, my little wife, my mom, my friends dancing dressed in White in the sea, and we're supposed to draw no one knows how the feeling of nostalgia and therefore of life. Except that identify with a character is not an abandonment but an effort. I do not leave me with feelings of the character, I try to understand, I concentrate, I find reasons to move me on the occasions that the film gives me, but plunged in full caricature and despite my efforts, it does CAN NOT WALK AND IT'S CHIANTI.
