You may call him one representing the modern Taiwanese film industry. ウェイ・ダーション 魏徳聖 completed "52Hzのラヴソング”(52HZ, I LOVE YOU/2017)", a director's work which was the first time in six years since "Sedec Palais". Wonder if movie writers who worked on super-tithes are going to a pretty work since then. For example, フランシス・フォード・コッポラ Francis Ford Coppola.
What he was tired of mentally and physically in that "地獄の黙示録”(Apocalypse Now/1979), he chose his next masterpiece of "ワン・フロム・ザ・ハート”(One from the Heart/1982). And ウェイ・ダーション 魏徳聖is showing off an adorable musical here as well .
Set in Taipei on the Valentine's Day, love group image plays that are colored with music and flowers develop. The encounter is happy, and passing each other is also happy. Without intervention in any satire or sarcasm, true affirmation of the intersection between people is expressed as genuine pureness. There is no cunning story like "ラ・ラ・ランド”(La La Land/2016)for example. However, it is not a nostalgic movie that is immersed in retrospective nostalgia.
It is noteworthy that he is casually and carefully gazing at the episode where women marry. Moreover, rather than defending them as 'protected beings', praising this world as 'protecting world', is glimpsed as the uniqueness and modernity of this director. Many familiar songs to the ears which make us want to refrain in heart forever, this is a lovable little work that will be handed down from generation to generation.
