After This ... R and i went straight to TST and had 2 pints of beer immediately.
I guess we all felt the same, this film was so "heavy" that we couldnt breath after 160mins.
This unbearable heaviness generates from the simple realistic yet structured narrative specially arranged by the director.It makes me think about L'Argent (1983) by Bresson & The Bicycle Thief (1948) by Vittorio De Sica.(No Offense to the director! , just feel " After" is as powerful as those master works and cant believe i can still able to see it ... esp by the Hong Kong director )
Within a week, i travelled through the rich imaginative world from " the science of sleep" to the " realistic-down-to-earth" life in " After this our Exile".How wonderful to witness different film styles, both are powerful!
