"One Thousand and One Nights" stills
movie impression (4): "One Thousand and One Nights"
This film is Pasolini directed by It was filmed jointly by Italy and France, which lasted more than 2 hours. Some people say that this film is an erotic movie, but I don't think so. The film is adapted from Arab folk tales and tells the story of the slave girl Sumaro choosing poor boy Aladdin as the master. The two went through a lot of hardships and finally lived happily together. Pasolini is a leftist (his killing may be related to his political leanings), and his works must express his political views: sympathy, affirmation or praise to people living at the bottom of society, hoping that they will live well day.
The film has changed the repressive tone of the past Pasolini movies. It is a bit bright and lively. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a comedy. The plot is a bit humorous, bizarre, and even absurd, but the actor's true performance adds a lot to the film. For example, the king and the queen selected a boy and a girl to fall in love: the vigorous boy, under the caress of the girl, had a physical life, and was a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly covered his eyes with his arm; the girl pulled Pass the quilt and quickly cover the boy's body. The actors may be non-professionals or even extras, but their acting skills are still remarkable.
The biggest feature of this movie is that there are more black actors. Their appearance is not high, if you are from the Appearance Association, you may be disappointed. Plot? Emotional and not lustful, if you watch this movie with an excitement-seeking mentality, you may also be disappointed. In fact, all Pasolini's films are erotic and not lustful, and they end there (even if the actor has a physiological reaction).
I watched "120 Days of Sodom", and I felt depressed; I watched " Decameron" and " Canterbury Tales", but I was not happy; I watched "A Thousand and One Nights" , I feel better. Watching a movie is to enjoy art, and you must not take the things in the movie seriously.The art of film comes from life, but it is higher than life. After reprocessing, the director and actors even re-interpreted the original story (original), interpreting their understanding of life in the film. For the same movie, our audience will definitely have different understandings. I remembered what Mr. Lu Xun said when he evaluated "A Dream of Red Mansions": Confucian scholars saw "Yi", Taoists saw licentiousness, gifted scholars and beautiful ladies saw lingering, revolutionaries saw slander, rumors saw the secrets of the palace... In the eyes of the audience, some people Think that "A Thousand and One Nights" is an erotic movie; some people think that "A Thousand and One Nights" is a comedy movie; some people think that "A Thousand and One Nights" is a fantasy movie, and so on.
A thousand viewers have a thousand Hamlet. How do you feel after watching the movie "One Thousand and One Nights"?
