In 1961, Stanislaw Rozewicz created the novella film "Birth Certificate" in cooperation with his brother, Taduesz Rozewicz as screenwriter. Such brother tandems are rare in the history of film but aside from family ties, Stanislaw (born in 1924) and Taduesz (born in 1921) were mutually bound by their love for the cinema. They were born and grew up in Radomsk, a small town which had "its madmen and its saints" and most importanly, the "Kinema" cinema, as Stanislaw recalls: for him cinema is "heaven, the whole world, enchantment". Tadeusz says he considers cinema both a charming market stall and a mysterious temple. "All this savage land has always attracted and fascinated me," he says. "I am devoured by cinema and I devour cinema; I'm a cinema eater." But Taduesz Rozewicz, an eminent writer, admits this unique form of cooperation was a problem to him: "It is the presence of the other person not only in the process of writing, but at its very core, which is inserperable for me from absolute solitude." Some scenes the brothers wrote together; others were created by the writer himself, following discussions with the director. But from the perspective of time, it is "Birth Certificate", rather than "Echo" or "The Wicked Gate", that Taduesz describes as his most intimate film. This is understandable. The tradgey from September 1939 in Poland was for the Rozewicz brothers their personal "birth certificate". When working on the film, the director said "This time it is all about shaking off, getting rid of the psychological burden which the war was for all of us. ... Cooperation with my brother was in this case easier, as we share many war memories. We wanted to show to adult viewers a picture of war as seen by a child. ... In reality, it is the adults who created the real world of massacres. Children beheld the horrors coming back to life, exhumed from underneath the ground, overwhelming the earth."
The principle of composition of "Birth Certificate" is not obvious. When watching a novella film, we tend to think in terms of traditional theatre. We expect that a miniature story will finish with a sharp point; the three film novellas in Rozewicz's work lack this feature. We do not know what will be happen to the boy making his alone through the forest towards the end of "On the Road". We do not know whether in "Letter from the Camp", the help offered by the small heroes to a Soviet prisoner will rescue him from the unknown fate of his compatriots. The fate of the Jewish girl from "Drop of Blood" is also unclear. Will she keep her new impersonation as "Marysia Malinowska"? Or will the Nazis make her into a representative of the "Nordic race"? Those questions were asked by the director for a reason. He preceived war as chaos and perdition, and not as linear history that could be reflected in a plot. Although "Birth Certificate" is saturated with moral content, it does not aim to be a morality play. But with the immense pressure of reality, no varient of fate should be excluded. This approached can be compared wth Krzysztof Kieslowski's "Blind Chance" 25 years later, which pictured dramatic choices of a different era.
The film novella "On the Road" has a very sparing plot, but it drew special attention of the reviewers. The ominating overtone of the war films created by the Polish Film School at that time should be kept in mind. Mainly owing to Wajda, those films dealt with romantic heritage. They were permeated with pathos, bitterness, and irony. Rozewicz is an extraordinary artist. When narrating a story about a boy lost in a war zone, carrying some documents from the regiment office as if they were a treasure, the narrator in "On the Road" discovers rough prose where one should find poetry. And suddenly, the irrational touches this rather tame world. The boy, who until that moment resembled a Polish version of the Good Soldier Schweik, sets off, like Don Quixote, for his first and last battle. A critic described it as "an absurd gesture and someone else could surely use it to criticise the Polish style of dying. ... But the Rozewicz brothers do no accuse: they only compose an elegy for the picturesque peasant-soldier, probably the most important veteran of the Polish war of 1939-1945." "Birth Certificate" is not a lofty statement about national imponderabilia. The film reveals a plebeian perspective which Aleksander Jackieqicz once contrasted with those "lyrical lamentations" inherent in the Kordian tradition. However, a historical overview of Rozewicz's work shows that the distinctive style does not signify a fundamental difference in illustrating the Polish September. Just as the memorable scene from Wajda's "Lotna" was in fact an expression of desperation and distress, the same emotions permeate the final scene of "Birth Certificate". These are not ideological concepts, though once described as such and fervently debated, but rather psychological creations. In this specific case, observes Witold Zalewski, it is not about manifesting knightly pride, but about a gesture of a simple man who does not agree to be enslaved.
The novella "Drop of Blood" is, with Aleksander Ford's "Border Street", one of the first narrations of the fate of the Polish Jews during the Nazi occupation. The story about a girl literally looking for her place on earth has a dramatic dimension. Especially in the age of today's journalistic disputes, often manipulative, lacking in empathy and imbued with bad will, Rozewicz's story from the past shocks with its authenticity. The small herione of the story is the only one who survives a German raid on her family home. Physical survial does not, however, mean a return to normality. Her frightened departure from the rubbish dump that was her hideout lead her to a ruined apartment. Her walk around it is painful because still fresh signs of life are mixed with evidence of annihilation. Help is needed, but Mirka does not know anyone in the outside world. Her subsequent attempts express the state of the fugitive's spirits - from hope and faith, moving to doubt, a sense of oppression, and thickening fear, and finally to despair.
At the same time, the Jewish girl's search for refuge resembles the state of Polish society. The appearance of Mirka results in confusion, and later, trouble. This was already signalled by Rozewicz in an exceptional scene from "Letter from the Camp" in which the boy's neighbour, seeing a fugitive Russian soldier, retreats immediately, admitting that "Now, people worry only about themselves." Such embarassing excuses mask fear. During the occupation, no one feels safe. Neither social status not the aegis of a charity organisation protects against repression. We see the potential guardians of Mirka passing her back and forth among themselves. These are friendly hands but they cannot offer strong support. The story takes place on that thin line between solidarity and heroism. Solidarity arises spontaneously, but only some are capable of heroism. Help for the girl does not always result from compassion; sometimes it is based on past relations and personal ties (a neighbour of the doctor takes in the fugitive for a few days because of past friendship). Rozewicz portrays all of this in a subtle way; even the smallest gesture has significance. Take, for example, the conversation with a stranger on the train: short, as if jotted down on the margin, but so full of tension. And earlier, a peculiar examination of Polishness: the "Holy Father" prayer forced on Mirka by the village boys to check that she is not a Jew. Would not rising to the challenge mean a death sentance?
Viewed after many years, "Birth Certificate" discloses yet another quality that is not present in the works of the Polish School, but is prominent in later B-class war films. This is the picture of everyday life during the war and occupation outlined in the three novellas. It harmonises with the logic of speaking about "life after life". Small heroes of Rozewicz suddenly enter the reality of war, with no experience or scale with which to compare it. For them, the present is a natural extension of and at the same time a complete negation of the past. Consider the sleey small-town marketplace, through which armoured columns will shortly pass. Or meet the German motorcyclists, who look like aliens from outer space - a picture taken from an autopsy because this is how Stanislaw and Taduesz perceived the first Germans they ever met. Note the blurred silhouettes of people against a white wall who are being shot - at first they are shocking, but soon they will probably become a part of the grim landscape. In the city centre stands a prisoner camp on a sodden bog ("People perish likes flies; the bodies are transported during the night"); in the street the childern are running after a coal wagon to collect some precious pieces of fuel. There's a bustle around some food (a boy reproaches his younger brother's actions by singing: "The warrant officer's son is begging in front of the church? I'm going to tell mother!"); and the kitchen, which one evening becomes the proscenium of a real drama. And there are the symbols: a bar of chocolate forced upon a boy by a Wehrmacht soldier ("On the Road"); a pair of shoes belonging to Zbyszek's father which the boy spontaneously gives to a Russian fugitive; a priceless slice of bread, ground under the heel of a policeman in the guter ("Letters from the Camp"). As the director put it: "In every film, I communicate my own vision of the world and of the people. Only then the style follows, the defined way of experiencing things." In Birth Certificate, he adds, his approach was driven by the subject: "I attempted to create not only the texture of the document but also to add some poetic element. I know it is risky but as for the merger of documentation and poety, often hidden very deep, if only it manages to make its way onto the screen, it results in what can referred to as 'art'."
After 1945, there were numerous films created in Europe that dealt with war and children, including "Somewhere in Europe" ("Valahol Europaban", 1947 by Geza Radvanyi), "Shoeshine" ("Sciescia", 1946 by Vittorio de Sica), and "Childhood of Ivan" ("Iwanowo dietstwo" by Andriej Tarkowski). Yet there were fewer than one would expect. Pursuing a subject so imbued with sentimentalism requires stylistic disipline and a special ability to manage child actors. The author of "Birth Certificate" mastered both - and it was not by chance. Stanislaw Rozewicz was always the beneficent spirit of the film milieu; he could unite people around a common goal. He emanated peace and sensitivity, which flowed to his co-workers and pupils. A film, being a group work, necessitates some form of empathy - tuning in with others.
In a biographical documentary about Stanislaw Rozewicz entitled "Walking, Meeting" (1999 by Antoni Krauze), there is a beautiful scene when the director, after a few decades, meets Beata Barszczewska, who plays Mireczka in the novella "Drops of Blood". The woman falls into the arms of the elderly man. They are both moved. He wonders how many years have passed. She answers: "A few years. Not too many." And Rozewicz, with his characteristic smile says: "It is true. We spent this entire time together."
沒想到這部竟然是我在戲院重開後的第一部電影。年少時追的番，約了中學同學去追憶青春。太久沒看，大學篇很多人物都沒什麼印象。凜遙的部分好多啊，真的是“游過十八萬尺後 也不會足夠 永遠要你做對手”。真遙黨要哭了，真琴大天使不但做不了對手，連陪練的資格都沒有😢。不過真琴還是在自己的道路穩步向前，病母倍感安慰。但末段兩人在神社，真琴為何走得那麼狼狽？那個預感有那麼難以啟齒嗎？片末好虐，我站了一秒凜遙。😢不再自由的七瀨遙能把自由式游得好嗎？下集什麼時候會上映？
cooper的演技、麻辣兔的人设，和这一整部电影，都只能用平庸一词来概括。大魔王满脸就写着三个字：带不动。
继上次带dating对象看了大型厌男片《soho惊魂夜》之后，我又干出了带热爱小动物的素食主义者去看神经病咬断活鸡脖子这么刺激的事，Jeez
个人觉得片子没毛病，还是挺好看的。就是出自陀螺之手的话，再加上这个卡死，感觉有点屈才了。右后谁要问我什么事“卡斯诈骗”，此片就是经典案例。。。那个婴儿标本是从双瞳剧组借的吗？片尾，我以为男主要说，哥，憋给我灌鸦片了，怪人，我演就是了。其实我有一点不懂，男主为啥忽然就开始喝酒了呢？
反复埋料call back。。。
- 2022/05/08，看完。我依然喜欢他们，但我没法说服自己喜欢这个端水且铺垫不足的脚本。-
这个剧场版可以拼凑出所有cp，真谣，宗凛，凛谣，凛郁，郁谣，旭郁，夏郁，夏尚，宗真，诸怜，贵澄，贵谣，外加一个黄毛一个白毛。每一对都有对手戏，CP大乱炖女孩会巨满足。不过没看前三季的人，基本上看不懂这个剧场版。另外声优阵容几乎是近年来最豪华的，集齐了宫野真守，小野大辅，内山昂辉，丰永利行，津叔，细谷佳正，平川大辅，日野聪。就差神谷浩史和小野贤章就可以凑一个大满贯了，非常感谢京阿尼给我们制作出那么好的剧场版。希望这十六个大男孩能永远的游下去。
影片时长两个半小时，在嘉年华秀里的时间就用了一个小时，未免有点太长了。大面形式上也做得不错，但对几个主要角色的行为动机缺乏深层次的探索，流于表面，没有灵魂。
非常喜欢！当陀螺构建的暗黑世界足够成熟时，他只需要不断复刻这一寓言体系的要素来唤醒他的影迷（马戏团迷宫一秒唤起潘神，暗绿色的夜雨是水形物语），并不断用自己的“格林童话”补完和延续自己的暗黑寓言故事集。新世纪已经不再崭新，科学尚不足解释一切，心理学才露端倪，神学依旧能控制人心。陀螺用自己寓言中的人物一再投射现实世界，在他眼里，入侵波兰的元首是卓别林。数字和词语构成的镜像世界，暗号如摩丝码繁复，模仿成为利器，眼神、手势、反复擦拭的皮鞋、突然的晕厥虽能一招制胜，但镜像的现实世界依旧无法轻易摆脱糟糕的童年的和原生家庭。童年的乌云在言语间就能暴露弱点，奢华和权利不断铺设的陷阱，被私欲反噬，最终引人走入万劫不复的结局。Geek犹如包法利夫人中的瞎子，陀螺自己做了一次电影黄金时代遗产中的福楼拜。
冈村第一次当担人设总作监，人设基本沿用的西屋第三季那套美型，作监整得有些糟，线条有些油，不过貌似是你京最近风格。未来阿姨带新人单挂总作监也是奇观。令人欣慰的是多田文雄后继有人，水的作画略僵硬但还是强悍。再次发觉内海是多好的一个监督。
斯坦背负着冻死父亲并焚尸的噩梦到了底层马戏团，首先见识的是假扮的怪物，他越是排斥这一角色，越是意图通过读心灵媒逃离这个角色，距离成为这个角色就越近，欺骗越高级，其铤而走险自掘坟墓的本质就越显现，男主欠佳，女主发挥空间太小。
步步都能猜到的剧情，演员演的真好，拍的也不错。就是剧情太容易猜到了。很套路很套路的写了一个家伙的野心之路，而最大的问题是他为啥？就好像作者要把美国野心浓缩到一个人身上，却忽视了他做人本身的内在问题。他为啥？为啥？停不下来的骗人，完全没有教了交代，就好像作者为了批判野心这个抽象的现象刻意捏造的人物，不可信。但是景观美术做的真好。就这样。想用个简单故事承载复杂人性的想法本身就是野心，华而不实的野心。可是这些演员简直是表演艺术家，剧情虽然这样还是演的可圈可点。缺点和优点都很明显的片儿。
40。
«El callejón de las almas perdidas» 西语译名还真是直直直译…… 这故事讲两个半小时也太过冗长了吧
有点太四平八稳了，陀螺的特长在这个并没有太天马行空的设定中，有些施展不开。渐渐地我发现，演员的表演似乎并不是陀螺的强项，如果没有奇情的支撑，现实语境 中即使是这些好演员，也没有建立起良好的化学反应
吸睛如游戏场景-01/01/22 at AMC Garden State Plaza 16
就这样结束了他的一生。
但还是一如既往欣赏不来rap
没有看过老版。所以无从对比，但是剧情的首尾衔接最后让人惊悚。像是自我完成了一个轮回般。听说老版的宗教意味很明显，但新版却没有，就是活生生的诡计较量。男主像从地狱爬出来的恶魔。在嘉年华里伪装成普通人，却在繁华的都市里原形毕露。最后被打入更深的地狱。
马戏团完全是陀螺展览他怪诞爱好的场所，以至于第一幕过长，中段和心理师的相爱相杀蛮有张力，而最终，读心者永远读出自己被反噬的宿命。三星半。
