Acclaimed Mexican-Canadian auteur Nicolás Pereda returns to the Festival with Minotaur, a pendant to his 2009 feature Juntos. Shot in the Mexico City apartment of Pereda's signature actor Gabino Rodríguez, Minotaur is an incandescent chamber piece that observes three thirtysomethings (Rodríguez, Luisa Pardo and Francisco Barreiro) as they sleep, dream, read, and receive visitors (including the housekeeper who takes care of them) in their communal space. A lovely and lethargic spell is cast as an ambiguous, Marienbad-like love triangle emerges among the trio, conveyed through literature (books function as telepathic transmitters and definers of relationships), choreography, and the acute physical presence of the three leads. Extending Pereda's recurring interests in class, social structure and family relations in Mexican society in its wraithlike fantasy of a leisure class that is quite literally sustained in its narcoleptic existence by the ministrations of the domestic help, Minotaur evokes the films of Tsai Ming-liang in its distended naturalism, ritualistic solitude, and creation of a cloistered world suffused with longing. The surreal aura of Minotaur seeps beyond the confines of the trio's apartment into a strange "night without distance" in Lois Patiño's hallucinatory portrait of border smuggling in the Gerês Mountains between Portugal and Galicia. Casting real townsfolk, some of whom were smugglers in their youth, Patiño places their stiffly Straubian presences within cross-processed, multilayered tableaux of rocks, river, and trees — an ever-indeterminate place that has imbibed and borne witness to innumerable, desperate acts of survival. Conjuring an instant in the memory of a landscape filled with ghosts, Night without distance extracts spellbinding fantasy from the real.
受不了😓 物化女性?
因为贫穷，所以徒劳；抑或是空虚，所以徒劳？还是，其实都是，都是徒劳？
A24的品质看来也是层次不齐，热衷于惊悚片倒是真的。相较于《仲夏夜惊魂》素色静谧的影像氛围，这一部反其道而行，完全依靠调色来渲染，血腥程度也没有退步。拿性说事，这一部还算触碰到一些新颖的思考，老龄化边缘化，身份认同与存在的意义等。参加过两次世界大战的霍华德，海军陆战队退伍改行男优的科森，两人的类比有点意思，一位力有不逮，一位执着于情爱之外的性交。斧子劈门经典桥段又被拿来玩了一通，那片湖泊戏不知是不是从瑞典电影《边境》里抄来的。剧作模式及结构早已被用烂，表演也无甚亮点。
湖边黑影究竟是人是鬼？
没看过原著，雪国景色好美，有机会看看原著吧
论血腥不血腥，论恐怖不恐怖，论深度没深度，这片拍的不伦不类
驹子在日记本上重重的写着
女主是捡漏儿大王 快进⏩一个小时看完都是浪费时间
为了连贯性的拖尾显然已经背离了原作的破碎之美
终于从前一版的少妇回到了少女，但这个内心独白太让人心烦了，要么找王家卫来拍一版吧。
和江户川乱步短篇集的拍摄手法很像，光是川端原文的阅读就很有沉浸感了，画面也很考究。内容上感觉像是“原作➕剧情解析”的改编 ps高桥真的好适合这种角色哇
品尝女人情欲苦难的男性文本什么时候可以停止。原著没有看过，但这个电影让我觉得很不愉快，多少要反思下吧，这些陈旧的创作。
很简单的故事，从女人嘴里讲出来总是这么复杂，话有留白，为什么故事不也用留白呢？男主角更像是个工具人，卷卷头发也很出戏。
如果我是70多岁的老太太看这个影片应该会挺伤心的 老人的描写有点猎奇啊
前半段就很好，恐怖片不一定要放到夜晚的氛围中去，降低可视性有很多办法：建筑的遮蔽、复杂的房间构造、给更少的主观视角（拍在注视的人的眼睛，拍反应，不拍被注视的人等等）。后半程全程在黑夜中，更像是利用光线制造单纯的心里效果，没有那么有趣了。老人的性总被认为是不可谈论、不可见的，这一题材本身就预见了对于观看和拍摄的反思，非常出彩。
看完就有凄惨的美的感受。
so fucking hard core and disturbing. the editing is creative while the sexual part is a turn-off.
雪境情事，奈绪扮相古风齐美，高桥总有阿Paul的感觉
演员演技都有，画面也不错，但是感觉不太适合这个剧情，最后变成了推理剧情，应该是改编的不好，是剧本台词的锅。
5of10。本来还好，可以给个6到7的……但结尾加了一段，对原著大段空白内容的理解，搞得成了不伦不类的推理剧。等于是把原著的多种可能固定成了唯一解释，还是比较无聊的那种解释。奈绪的驹子只做到了原著中的洁净，灵动、果敢却一点没看出来；高桥的岛村嘛，私以为演的还行，就是造型别扭。
