It is a feeling after viewing (see the author’s editorial office lasting 5 hours 18 minutes), that you are at the sea and look endlessly at the waves. I went to this movie for a long time. And she put off watching. I finally got half a day and finished it in one sitting.
Monumental, sometimes grotesque cinema with an accurate depiction of the main character and the development of the inner nerve of the characters of Italy, i.e. here are shown in the context of the era (although the film is still relevant for its questions posed in the picture) style and aesthetics, naturalism in the gradation that values real cinematic art. Bertolucci’s artistic techniques, there is a somewhat ragged rhythm in the second half of the film, but Morricone’s elegant music smooths out all the irregularities and roughness of the script capacity. Robert de Niro, Gerard Depardieu, Bert Lancaster, Donald Sutherland – great. Nuances, accents of the game, a lot of semitones, playing in plus content. In my opinion, I would remove the expressiveness in a few scenes due to camera work, and in general the film makes an impression. There is no flirting with social topics, everything is very clear on psychology.
And a long time does not interfere with the overall perception.
“A good fighter is not one who is tense, but one who is ready. He does not think or dream, he is ready for anything that can happen. Bruce Lee.
A film whose transcendental function is fully fulfilled. Due to competent editing and principled directing.
Great movie. It's worth your attention.
I recommend it. 👌
