Speaking of the World Cup, it has become extremely popular recently. Walking in the streets, people are everywhere watching the World Cup. Among them, the most popular star in the World Cup is Cristiano Ronaldo (Cristiano? Ronaldo). Currently, the record is quite impressive. Just a few days ago, he scored 4 goals in 3 games! Many people believe that without Ronaldo, Portugal would have been eliminated long ago. Maybe, some people say: A World Cup without Cristiano Ronaldo is not called a World Cup. In fact, Portugal is not a simple country. There is a music-themed Portuguese movie - "Lisbon Story", which uses sound to perceive the world. The black and white image of the film within the film It’s so beautiful, Pessoa’s words are so beautiful, his music is so beautiful.

You will gain a lot by watching the right movie at the right time; life is too short to wait for the tea to cool down. If you stay here, I would like to provide you with the most authentic and exciting movie review to accompany you through this movie!
1. Wenders chose to use sound to perceive the world this time, and after a seemingly hopeless discussion about whether the world is real or not, he used his natural voice to activate the protagonist's love for movies. Therefore, the film is more like a retelling of Wenders' own mental journey by music fan Wenders. The story of the film is very creative. Although there is no dramatic tension, the plot is designed to be very humorous and interesting, ensuring the rhythm and joy of watching the film. From road movies to scenery suspense movies to chatty movies, every part is filled with hilarious or full vitality, and even the sunshine in Lisbon comes alive in the sound. The philosophical thinking about movies that I talked about at the end was brought from the state of things. ?Stories cannot express reality, and we cannot live without stories. ?
2. The sound engineer in the film traveled through the streets and alleys of Lisbon, picking up the sounds needed in his friends’ silent films, using ears instead of eyes to perceive the city, and also presented us with what the eyes see. Ignoring the small details in life, the agility of sound is the pulse of the city. Pessoa's words are used throughout the film. In particular, the work of the sound recordist in film production is described in detail. I like the beginning of the movie very much. The protagonist drives across Europe and drives on the highways of various countries. I was lucky enough to see the scenery of foreign highways. Fun and friendly!
3. The sound of Lisbon. Watching a Wenders film is like living on the road, alienated and erratic. Pessoa's poems, the video in the hands of the little boy, and the film sound engineer mixed in between are indeed an underrated Portuguese film. Does the movie retain a specific moment or a certain memory? The black and white images of the film within the film are so beautiful, Pessoa's words are so beautiful, and the music is so beautiful. I fell in love with Lisbon immediately after watching it, not only because of Cristiano Ronaldo, I also fell in love with Portugal at this time.
4. In the bright sunlight, even the sound shines. A postcard of Fernando Pessoa with a blue seascape floating in front of the camera was drowned by the gradually accumulating newspapers, letters, and magazines. A hand freed it from the clutter. Postcard from Lisbon. The owner of this hand is a sound engineer and the postcard was sent from Lisbon. A director friend invited him to record and dub for his documentary. The film also does not have a storyline in the traditional sense. What Wenders tried to achieve in this film seems to be a sketch of the city expressed through several different styles of images, using various sound details full of poetry of life, using the music of the Portuguese band Madredeus, and using life in the last century Half a page of poems by the great poet Pessoa is used to outline the artistic image and temperament of the city of Lisbon. Through the collage of images, sounds, poetry and music, and through the intertextuality between them, a slowly flowing poetry is formed, hiding discussions about film and art behind this flowing poetry. I'm thinking, this is really not a preachy movie, but a movie that needs to be felt with your heart.
5. This is the first time for many people to see a movie with a sound engineer as the protagonist, and there are many humorous and touching details (the part where the children are asked to guess the voices is simply one of the most beautiful scenes I have ever seen) , maybe this is what makes Portugal special. This can also be said to be a sonic travel diary of the streets of Lisbon! Intentionally or unintentionally, the film expresses worries about uniformity, trying to open a road less traveled. However, the process of street radio is full of fun, filled with vitality from life itself. If you experience and explore, you will always find something. Different wonderful. This is a very charming film. It makes you admire and yearn for movies, and makes you feel that making movies is sacred. Many years later, Lisbon is still full of dilapidated ruins. Although there are economic reasons, they seem to be content with this romantic and dilapidated scenery, which is in line with Portugal’s unique Saudade. I hope that one day we can drink a euro of sweet wine. , listening to sad songs.
6. You can also think of this as a Grimm fairy tale. On the first day, I met a blacksmith and exchanged a box that made sounds for a carriage; on the second day, the little dwarf laughed out loud while listening to his ventriloquism; on the third day, the pigeon on the city wall fell into the pool. ; On the fourth day, the princess with the beautiful voice deliberately threw a key on the ground. Some things are like mosquitoes that can never be caught, buzzing in your ears all the time. The music is really nice.
From then on, we not only know that Portugal plays football well, but also has a very special musical drama film, Europe without borders, maybe a microphone will save the image from the darkness, not only because of Cristiano Ronaldo, I believe in this World Cup The champion is the Portuguese team!
