My Rating: 8/10

A documentary about the most influential architecture photographer. Visually stunning. I didn't know anything about this guy Julius Shulman, I was attracted to this film, simply because of the poster. If you're into modern architecture and photography, watch it.

My Rating: 11/10

Twenty-Four Eyes... completely sweep over me. Maybe I have a thing for sentimentalism, but how could I help it? The way the film does is like a tidal wave, washes me over and over again. There were many things I have thought about when I was watching this film, now they don't want to come to mind. Well, I... highly strongly recommend this film, if you're feeling like a big cry, or feeling a bit nostalgic, or just simply wanting to see a great film. I don't give out 11 for no reason, trust me.

A Streetcar Named Desire

Director: Elia Kazan
Writers: Tennessee Williams (original play)
Cast: Vivien Leigh, Marlon Brando, Karl Malden and Kim Hunter
Year: 1951
IMDB

My Rating: 9/10

The play by Tennessee Williams is really intriguing. You have a drama queen who constantly manipulates the truths, and you have a rough and masculine guy who wants nothing but the truth. Their clash is a classic play/movie called A Streetcar Named Desire. I should start reading Tennessee Williams.

Both leading actor and actress put on incredible performance, but I prefer Marlon Brando in this film, his extreme masculinity is quite fascinating to me, although his character is definitely not a good model to follow.

評分：9／10

雖然這可能是侯孝賢最重要的一部片，也是台灣電影史上第一部在國外得獎的作品。但我真的很難享受這部電影，也不是我最愛的侯孝賢電影。身為台灣人，了解台灣的歷史的我，在看這一部片時，巨大的悲傷壟罩了整部電影。連應該是快樂的婚禮，看來都格外感傷。這可能是國片中，最富歷史意義，最在意台灣的一部吧。

我之前曾一個人去九份走走，看到了許多有關悲情城市的招牌，地標，和海報。但是當時還沒看這部片。老實說，讓我認出九份那個地方的不是那些有名階梯式建築（九份現在的商業化，已經面目全非了），而是面海的基隆山。影片裡有很多山和海的場景。我還記得自己一個人跑到山上，山上的風相當大。但當時，對我來說，那是一個我希望能無限延長的一個瞬間。當時拍了些照片，但現在只剩這張，和一些我破碎的回憶。

我想，往往當我們回頭看時，大多數是感嘆而不是驕傲，因為最好的時光已經過去了。看看台灣的歷史，看看九份的歷史，看看台灣電影的歷史。
