Everyone must agree that winter is not suitable for working, but it is quite suitable for watching movies. It was windy and snowy outside, and I was wrapped in a quilt and watching a movie inside, which was absolutely full of happiness.
But what kind of movies are suitable for "watching around the fire at night" in winter? It must be warm, lazy, and long, or the movie and the weather are integrated, and it is also snowing all over the sky, so that you can feel the same. Or the movie has a slow pace and a romantic warmth, so it is okay to take a nap and continue watching.
Today, we have selected 6 winter movies for you. Find a warm place, spare two hours, and let yourself relax after being wrapped up tightly.
"Love Letter"
Japanese and Korean youth films love winter very much. In the snowy weather, the heroine, wearing gloves and hat, with a rosy face, is the standard image of beautiful Japanese and Korean girls. The most impressive winter scene is probably Shunji Iwai's "Love Letter". Shunji Iwai can be said to be the true spokesperson of "cruel youth aesthetics". The cruelty of youth is not about tearing up, betrayal, bloodshed and tears, but the sentimentality that "youth is fleeting and youth is gone".
"Love Letter" is a movie that is very light on the surface, but deep and sad inside, with a hint of sadness, which is particularly delicate. In the icy and snowy scenery of Kobe, the correspondence between Hiroko Watanabe and Itsuki Fujii is full of gender inversion, which is very interesting and thought-provoking. What is the relationship between the Fujii tree that Watanabe Hiroko is looking for and the girl Fujii with the same name and surname? Love?
In the beautiful snowy sky, sad past events continue to emerge, and several protagonists begin their persistent pursuit. The crazy brute force of youth is the most emotional.
"Buffalo 66"
This is a very strange love sketch, written, directed and starred by Vincent Gallo, with the ghostly Christina Ricci as his partner. Billy, played by Gallo, was officially released from prison on a cold winter day, ending his five-year prison career. However, nothing happy seemed to happen. Gallo was constantly having bad luck and could not even urinate. Moreover, he was always shivering because of his thin clothes, especially Blic's mink coat, which made people feel bad for him: Why don't you wear thick clothes?
The kind-hearted Gallo wanted to repair the relationship with his parents. He did not tell his parents about being imprisoned. He lied that he had worked hard outside and had achieved something. The easiest way to repair the relationship with your parents is to bring a girlfriend home to show them. This is the same in China and abroad.
So Billy started looking for a girlfriend on the street, and finally succeeded in "hijacking" Layla, played by Ritchie, and forced her to submit by pulling her hair. The behavior was very rough, but full of laughter. The romantic winter of this "couple" The adventure begins here.
"Ice Storm"
This is a very serious and depressing moral film made by Ang Lee in 1998. Many couples, old and young, gathered at a cocktail party on an ice storm night. The middle-class idlers began a long-planned collective affair, using the "wife swapping game" to relieve the boring long night. Full, warm and lustful, everything is ambiguous and dangerous, the sexual orgy inside the house, the ice storm outside.
I feel that this is Ang Lee's most depressing and serious work. Although Ang Lee has always been very concerned about the theme of morality, he obviously tried to break through the limitations of some concepts in this movie. Even though the atmosphere is depressing, the movie is absolutely wonderful and beautiful to watch, and Ang Lee has a strong control over the plot. Watching this movie in a winter room will give you a chill in your heart, just like the weather outside.
"Fargo"
In 2014, the first season of the American drama "Fargo" adapted from the Coen brothers' classic film version was launched. It is also an American drama that audiences have missed in recent years, starring Billy Bob Thornton and Martin Fernando Liman came on board with all his heart, and the story is set in the Minnesota winter.
In the ice and snow, collisions and conflicts between various forces are taking place. The police and the murderer deal with each other, and ordinary people are involved in violent crimes. When human nature gradually disappears and animal nature continues to explode, everything will become fragile and crises can occur at any time.
Thornton plays the professional killer Malvo, and Martin plays the insurance salesman Lester, which runs through the entire drama. Their superb performances inject powerful energy into this short and concise American drama. Every performance is textbook level. Especially Thornton, together with his uncomfortable hairstyle, left a deep impression on the audience. It can be said to be the best choice for killing time in winter.
"The Winter's Tale"
Rohmer may be the director who understands women best in the world. He is a gentle and considerate romantic master. In his movies, women are alive, unpredictable, and beating at any time. , intoxicated, giving people a strong appeal.
"The Winter's Story" is one of his stories of the four seasons, and is very romantic: a former pair of lovers, Felicie and Charlie, reunited again due to a wrong address in writing, and Felicie also gave birth to Charlie's child.
The two have not seen each other for five years. Life goes on and love keeps happening. Felicie also meets all kinds of men, but she always reserves a place for Charlie in her heart and looks forward to meeting again one day. . Felicie's devoted waiting was rewarded, and she and Charlie unexpectedly reunited on a bus in winter.
Rohmer's romance is that Felicie's belief is extremely strong and she always believes that the most perfect result will come. At least in the movie, this winter love story is extremely touching.
"Hibernation"
"Hibernation" was written by Nuri Big Ceylon ten years ago and won the Cannes Palme d'Or. The film is 196 minutes long, but the story is not complicated, and the clues are even monotonous. It just involves some profound reflections on history and culture.
Aiden, an intellectual from a wealthy family, runs a huge family business after retirement, and at the same time he also engages in profound thinking and writing. But in his interactions with ordinary people, his seemingly refined and stable values are actually not that remarkable. He often has intellectual disputes with his sister Nika and his wife Nihal. There is a cold wind outside the window and a warm atmosphere in the house. The fire, the desk, the books, and the endless conversations are perfect for getting into bed and reading in the winter, and maybe even getting some sleep.
This is not a satire on "Hibernation". On the contrary, it is a kind of praise. There are not many movies that can make people fall asleep peacefully. Moreover, it is 196 minutes long. You can continue watching it after taking a nap and still keep up with the plot. How interesting.
