Close confinement provokes bitter conflict in Love Poem, a documentary hybrid where hell is other people. The second feature from director Xiaozhen Wang (2013’s Around That Water) relentlessly picks over the bones of his fraught relationship with his wife and reluctant accomplice Qing Shi for a film that constantly muddies what is real and what is staged. The result is an unsettling journey through a hall of cracked mirrors. Festival audiences could be drawn to the originality and challenge of a film that is as intriguing as it is exhausting.

This overwrought therapy session feels very real.We then question whether any of it can be taken at face value

Love Poem initially seems to have taken inspiration from a combination of Noah Baumbach and Jafar Panahi, but without the Sondheim song. Xiaozhen Wang and his wife Qing Shi collect their young daughter Xiaoshuo and drive out of the city to visit an elderly relative. Xiaozhen drives and a fixed camera gazes on the back seat where Qing sits with their child. The journey has barely begun when the adults start giving each other hell. Over the next uninterrupted twenty minutes, they taunt each other to the point of a divorce.

Age-old grievances are aired, blows are struck and words are spoken that might be the cause of regret. Qing is increasingly angry as she vents her resentment of her passive/aggressive husband’s many failings. He is lazy, irresponsible, has never changed a nappy in his life or lifted a finger to try and improve their prospects and build a better life for the family. She also turns increasingly violent. Over the course of the film she repeatedly slaps him, spits in his eye, gouges his face and furiously kicks the back of his seat. Her physical violence is matched by his emotional cruelty.

This overwrought therapy session feels very real. Emotions run high and the viewer is completely swept into a marriage that cannot possibly survive. You even fret over the fate of a greedy daughter who is going to be awfully sick after her endless consumption of seaweed snacks and lollipops.

It gradually becomes apparent that all is not as it first appears. The blistering fury that Qing Shi unleashes may have some basis in reality but it is being channelled at the behest of her husband for the film that he is masterminding. We then question whether any of it can be taken at face value.

Xiaozhen increasingly goes out of his way flag up that this is a version of their life. There is a discussion about acting and doubts as to whether they may be exploiting relatives for an emotional pay-off. Xiaozhen laments: “I went too far to make this film.”

At the halfway mark, a title appears saying this is A Film By Xiaozhen Wang. Breaking that fourth wall and drawing attention to the artifice becomes an increasing element of the process. In the second half, the couple meets on a freezing cold night that happens to be Qing’s birthday. Xiaozhen is in the driver’s seat and Qing is a passenger. A fixed camera attached to the car is positioned to let us see both of them as they enact another scenario in which Xiaozhen is debating the impact on his girlfriend - played by Qing - of telling her that his current partner may be pregnant.

We are now presented with a more reasonable couple. When concentration lapses, they decide to repeat the whole sequence again. Their difficuties and weariness seep into the film as it starts to lose momentum. Can we really invest in any of this when none of it may be real? Does the end justify the means of their George and Martha-style play acting? You feel as if the warring couple may well deserve each other and start to sympathise with a tearful Qing’s desire for it all to end. The final irony comes when Xiaozhen dedicates the film to “my dear wife”.

影片气氛非常隐忍和克制，甚至有些沉重，但却很对我的胃口。

阿姆斯特朗的三次飞行任务，都刻意强化了座舱内的憋仄、拥挤和压抑。镜头在狭小的空间里转换，与此同时，是无休止的震颤、浓重的喘息、金属摩擦的异响和舱外飞溅的火光。观众亦彷佛一同置身于这个黑暗与颤抖的斗室之内，感受着孤独，感受着痛苦，感受着恐惧。

飞向太空，对于我等看客来说只是一场秀。但对于太空人，却是一次赌上生死的未知旅程，杨利伟也曾在升空过程中遭遇共振濒临死亡。在双子星任务火箭升空一段，影片的视角锁定在太空舱内，表现形式极具灾难片风格，进入太空后两人相视一笑，分明是一场劫后余生。第一次看时口不能言，第二次便忍不住流下泪来。我们都知道，成为一名英雄很难；而现在我们看到了，成为一名英雄很难。

太空的辽阔、壮丽、深邃和宁静，无论看多少次都仍然让人沉醉。土星升空和鹰号着陆的两个大场面音乐出色。尤其是着陆过程中“警报-目光-月面”的剪辑和BGM共同营造的紧张感，看到人呼吸停滞。打开舱门一刻万籁具寂，月球上的画面引人入胜。

已经数不清全片给了阿姆斯特朗的眼睛多少个镜头，从最初的游移，到沉稳，到在黑暗中也依然闪着坚毅的光。这部影片重点不是“登月”，而是“人”。月球上苍茫寂静，只有阿姆斯特朗回望地球的孤独身影。在那个无人注视地方，他不再是一个英雄，而只是一个父亲。喜欢结尾一幕，没有话语，一切尽在不言中。

《五彩缤纷》的题材选的很好只是90分钟的叙事显然不能支撑起来给人传达出了主人公到了美国一路开挂的错觉顺利到达美国、找到住所、找到学校、找到工作.如果我是女主 我会觉得那个老外是个骗子吧几句话就能让女主做出确定离开老公带着女儿远赴美国我不相信同样有失读症的一个母亲有这样的勇气以及这样的能力不是什么母爱的力量能达到的人物的身份和她的行为不足以让人信服.导演制造了一个个大大小小困难可解决困难的方式也太容易了几句话就能让招黑工的老板开出证明就能把梅梅的资料提交给校董事会就能让作家海伦卫她们母女二人东奔西跑这里没有一个恶人，也没有冷漠的人心感知到的全是温暖依旧不能让人信服.映后的互动才知道这是胡波导演根据自己女儿的真实故事而拍出来的这点让人很感动但片子确实很糟[跪了]

第一集“它很酷，我是说你的波点丝袜”被魔术师安慰到了“妈妈，我之前不知道“大人”这个词这么酷”她满怀感激的，结果，其实是不怀好意（不知道为什么，从他看到她吃客人剩下的面包被抓包时，我想他就抓住了她的弱点，并且会利用这点，是邪恶的男人，果然，后面露出真面目了）安娜拉，苏玛娜拉～啊 好酷 虽然是假钞 虽然被打了 但是 他护住了她第二集上门讨债“一直以来，我活的举步维艰，是否可以认为是神把真正的魔术师带到我的身边”为她点亮雨天的路灯他其实在守护她呀 但是缘何起呢（答案在第六集）一等在背后维护雅伊，结果。。。。“你……不是需要钱吗”又当面狠狠地伤了她的自尊心，还是小朋友呀，明明想要护她却选了最笨拙的方式～……

虽然但是，音乐一起来，然后仿佛动画的舞蹈场景，还是很搞笑，而且不是我喜欢的类型，所以看到后面有些无感。原本以为结局有意外之喜，因为还是把它当作魔幻来看的，但没想到最后是虎豹豺狼+有精神疾病史的帅哥魔术师，回归现实这点转的还是有点意思的，出乎预料就是一记忆点了～

童话里都是骗人的。“你，相信，魔术吗”反反复复，最后的答案是我不相信，都是虚化都是想象，都是骗人骗己呀，不过是一时的短暂的迷人的虚幻罢了～

最后，还是要感叹一下，原生家庭，父母的囚笼真的太可怕了，“你的孩子不是你的孩子”，身为父母，也该彼此放过了。

ps：看这部剧是源于池昌旭的造型和美貌，还有男二开车的那一幕，完全被吸引了，但外在是战胜不了内里的，最终美貌还是被剧情和表达形式给打败了。不过不得不说，和女主有一些相似点所以还有有被这一角色吸引的地方的
