Whenever I see La Paura I think of it as a companion piece to Eyes Wide Shut, or maybe it is the other way around. Adultery makes both films tick but in different ways. I think Phillip French was right on the money when he pointed out a Wizard of Oz thing in Kubrick's last work. Like Dorothy, Tom and Nicole go through fantasies and nightmares and at the end Dorothy's reassuring childish motto "there's no place like home" is ironically updated to the adult circumstantial adage "there's no sex like marital sex". Kubrick's take is intellectual, he never leaves the world of ideas to touch the ground. He taunts the audience first with an erotic movie and then with a thriller and refuses to deliver either of them. He was married to his third wife for 40 years, until he died. Rossellini was still married to Ingrid Bergman when he directed La Paura; they had been adulterous lovers and their infidelity widely criticized La Paura is a tale, a noirish one. The noir intrigue is solved and the tale has a happy ending. The city is noir; the country is tale, the territory where childhood is possible. The transition is operated in the most regular way: by car, a long-held shot taken from the front of the car as it rides into the road, as if we were entering a different dimension. Irene (Bergman) starts the movie: we just see a dark city landscape but her voice-over narration tells us of her angst and informs us that the story is a flashback, hers. Bergman's been cheating on her husband. At first guilt is just psychological torture but soon expands into economic blackmail and then grows into something else. From beginning to end the movie focuses on what Bergman feels, every other character is there to make her feel something. Only when the director gives away the plot before the main character can find out does he want us to feel something Bergman still can't. When she finds out, we have already experienced the warped mechanics of the situation and we may focus once again on the emotional impact it has on Bergman's Irene. In La Paura treasons are not imagined but real, nightmares are deliberate and the couple's venom suppurates in bitter ways. Needless to say, Ingrid has another of her rough rides in the movies but Rossellini doesn't dare put her away as he did in Europa 51, nor does he abandon her to the inscrutable impassivity of nature (Stromboli). His gift is less transcendent and fragile than the conclusion of Viaggio in Italia. He just gives his wife as much of a fairy tale ending as a real woman can have, a human landscape where she can finally feel at home. Back to the country, a half lit interior scene where shadows suggest the comfort of sleep. After all, it's the "fairy godmother" who speaks the last words in the movie.
好像近年都有一两部处理类似议题的中外华语片对照，19 年是《慕一伟》和《别告诉她》，21 年是《宇宙探索编辑部》和《瞬息全宇宙》。剧本用高概念包裹一个极其坚固的情感点，由此延伸爆发出充沛的想象力，好莱坞在此基础上用工业水平展现出全面碾压的势态。
脑补无数部作品。恶趣味面包圈，还有两块石头非常《宇宙尽头的餐馆》。风格化慢动作MV风类似《告白》。后巷男女《花样年华》。冲上二楼打戏《杀死比尔》。女儿夸张妆容《买凶拍人》。手指俯卧撑《金瓶梅2008》。劈门而入《闪灵》。母女纠葛《青春变形记》。直接致敬《料理鼠王》不必说。观影观感也如片名正是everything at once。就这psychedelic的画风，不嗑几片拍不出来
我也很想让豆瓣回到不是任何一部模式化的动漫化的大数据化的垃圾都能被一窝蜂打五星推到9分的时候
Camus would be proud.
去那个黑洞不好吗？不去看看咋知道好不好呢 拜托了 让我们都去那个黑洞吧 (这也是唯一看下去的动力
上次有这样的观影体验的电影还是汤浅政明的《心理游戏》······ 如果国内能上映的话去支持一下。
不论创作团队问题，但是从《青春环游记》到《妈的》，北美出品的“讲述中国故事”比中国更“中国”。被故事的想象力惊呆了，就好像真的看到了万花筒，各种亚文化的融入完全是应接不暇
Jobu Tupaki牵着小猪出场那段把我迷住了，她就像汤浅政明的动画角色。
人终究要解决的是此生此地的问题，看过太多的世界不过是走马观花。
好想让许鞍华来拍部这样的高概念电影，让他们看看拍出《女人四十》的人怎么拍《女人的四十个宇宙》。
而站在女儿的角度，我跨越无数的宇宙寻找妈妈，只希望她能真正的看到我的内心世界。
年轻一代的沮丧虚无在电影里似乎是不言自明的东西，也是整个故事的前提（尽管看上去她过得并不那么糟）。于是就忍不住从代际的角度来想，的确混同杂交了许多新旧语法（亚洲电影、游戏、动画），讲出了今天这一代的感受，之前的社会一再失信于人，不愿多做挣扎，情感的空心化等等。也因此觉得结局并不令人信服，又走上好莱坞的老套路了。
结束在对女儿放手的那一刻也很好啊。
高情商：多元宇宙，低情商：段子拼凑。
杂乱至极，毫无美学…是怎么做到把东亚家庭亲子关系叙述成如此点到为止的禅意感的…又不是功夫
怎么看下来感觉此片在讲抑郁症，黑狗变成摄魂怪大贝果。全片围绕一个问题：该如何消解庸常生活中巨大而沉默的无意义感？或许可以伸出恶心又忍不住靠近对方的热狗触手，试着去拥抱亲密关系；可以学着乐观，与人为善，给与我们作对的人一块幸运饼干；可以给一切贴上玩具眼睛，用幽默抵御虚无；可以寻找新情趣，哪怕情趣本身只是“情趣”……做任何能做的，只去过一种生活：当下的！
Rick and Morty版Turning Red
有mommy issue的我看到泪流满面，隔壁被爱包围长大的老李除了笑外面色平静。
看完第一反应是今敏去世的太早了。。什么人都敢来霍霍一下
我能理解，很多人对这部片子失望的点在于，它用如此反传统甚至是“叛逆”的外表，包裹了一个如此传统的内核：用爱拯救世界。这种落差难免让人产生新瓶装旧酒之感。然而，还有什么更好的答案呢？当你发现物质不过是原子的无序组合，再大的成功再美好的生活其实也不过如此，nothing matters。在这样的虚无中，还有什么能够拯救你呢？只有爱。我们的存在本身没有任何意义，是爱为之赋予了意义。争吵是爱，和解是爱，控制是爱，放手是爱，没有爱就没有痛苦，同样也不会有快乐，那是真正的虚无。
