In 1961, Stanislaw Rozewicz created the novella film "Birth Certificate" in cooperation with his brother, Taduesz Rozewicz as screenwriter. Such brother tandems are rare in the history of film but aside from family ties, Stanislaw (born in 1924) and Taduesz (born in 1921) were mutually bound by their love for the cinema. They were born and grew up in Radomsk, a small town which had "its madmen and its saints" and most importanly, the "Kinema" cinema, as Stanislaw recalls: for him cinema is "heaven, the whole world, enchantment". Tadeusz says he considers cinema both a charming market stall and a mysterious temple. "All this savage land has always attracted and fascinated me," he says. "I am devoured by cinema and I devour cinema; I'm a cinema eater." But Taduesz Rozewicz, an eminent writer, admits this unique form of cooperation was a problem to him: "It is the presence of the other person not only in the process of writing, but at its very core, which is inserperable for me from absolute solitude." Some scenes the brothers wrote together; others were created by the writer himself, following discussions with the director. But from the perspective of time, it is "Birth Certificate", rather than "Echo" or "The Wicked Gate", that Taduesz describes as his most intimate film. This is understandable. The tradgey from September 1939 in Poland was for the Rozewicz brothers their personal "birth certificate". When working on the film, the director said "This time it is all about shaking off, getting rid of the psychological burden which the war was for all of us. ... Cooperation with my brother was in this case easier, as we share many war memories. We wanted to show to adult viewers a picture of war as seen by a child. ... In reality, it is the adults who created the real world of massacres. Children beheld the horrors coming back to life, exhumed from underneath the ground, overwhelming the earth."
The principle of composition of "Birth Certificate" is not obvious. When watching a novella film, we tend to think in terms of traditional theatre. We expect that a miniature story will finish with a sharp point; the three film novellas in Rozewicz's work lack this feature. We do not know what will be happen to the boy making his alone through the forest towards the end of "On the Road". We do not know whether in "Letter from the Camp", the help offered by the small heroes to a Soviet prisoner will rescue him from the unknown fate of his compatriots. The fate of the Jewish girl from "Drop of Blood" is also unclear. Will she keep her new impersonation as "Marysia Malinowska"? Or will the Nazis make her into a representative of the "Nordic race"? Those questions were asked by the director for a reason. He preceived war as chaos and perdition, and not as linear history that could be reflected in a plot. Although "Birth Certificate" is saturated with moral content, it does not aim to be a morality play. But with the immense pressure of reality, no varient of fate should be excluded. This approached can be compared wth Krzysztof Kieslowski's "Blind Chance" 25 years later, which pictured dramatic choices of a different era.
The film novella "On the Road" has a very sparing plot, but it drew special attention of the reviewers. The ominating overtone of the war films created by the Polish Film School at that time should be kept in mind. Mainly owing to Wajda, those films dealt with romantic heritage. They were permeated with pathos, bitterness, and irony. Rozewicz is an extraordinary artist. When narrating a story about a boy lost in a war zone, carrying some documents from the regiment office as if they were a treasure, the narrator in "On the Road" discovers rough prose where one should find poetry. And suddenly, the irrational touches this rather tame world. The boy, who until that moment resembled a Polish version of the Good Soldier Schweik, sets off, like Don Quixote, for his first and last battle. A critic described it as "an absurd gesture and someone else could surely use it to criticise the Polish style of dying. ... But the Rozewicz brothers do no accuse: they only compose an elegy for the picturesque peasant-soldier, probably the most important veteran of the Polish war of 1939-1945." "Birth Certificate" is not a lofty statement about national imponderabilia. The film reveals a plebeian perspective which Aleksander Jackieqicz once contrasted with those "lyrical lamentations" inherent in the Kordian tradition. However, a historical overview of Rozewicz's work shows that the distinctive style does not signify a fundamental difference in illustrating the Polish September. Just as the memorable scene from Wajda's "Lotna" was in fact an expression of desperation and distress, the same emotions permeate the final scene of "Birth Certificate". These are not ideological concepts, though once described as such and fervently debated, but rather psychological creations. In this specific case, observes Witold Zalewski, it is not about manifesting knightly pride, but about a gesture of a simple man who does not agree to be enslaved.
The novella "Drop of Blood" is, with Aleksander Ford's "Border Street", one of the first narrations of the fate of the Polish Jews during the Nazi occupation. The story about a girl literally looking for her place on earth has a dramatic dimension. Especially in the age of today's journalistic disputes, often manipulative, lacking in empathy and imbued with bad will, Rozewicz's story from the past shocks with its authenticity. The small herione of the story is the only one who survives a German raid on her family home. Physical survial does not, however, mean a return to normality. Her frightened departure from the rubbish dump that was her hideout lead her to a ruined apartment. Her walk around it is painful because still fresh signs of life are mixed with evidence of annihilation. Help is needed, but Mirka does not know anyone in the outside world. Her subsequent attempts express the state of the fugitive's spirits - from hope and faith, moving to doubt, a sense of oppression, and thickening fear, and finally to despair.
At the same time, the Jewish girl's search for refuge resembles the state of Polish society. The appearance of Mirka results in confusion, and later, trouble. This was already signalled by Rozewicz in an exceptional scene from "Letter from the Camp" in which the boy's neighbour, seeing a fugitive Russian soldier, retreats immediately, admitting that "Now, people worry only about themselves." Such embarassing excuses mask fear. During the occupation, no one feels safe. Neither social status not the aegis of a charity organisation protects against repression. We see the potential guardians of Mirka passing her back and forth among themselves. These are friendly hands but they cannot offer strong support. The story takes place on that thin line between solidarity and heroism. Solidarity arises spontaneously, but only some are capable of heroism. Help for the girl does not always result from compassion; sometimes it is based on past relations and personal ties (a neighbour of the doctor takes in the fugitive for a few days because of past friendship). Rozewicz portrays all of this in a subtle way; even the smallest gesture has significance. Take, for example, the conversation with a stranger on the train: short, as if jotted down on the margin, but so full of tension. And earlier, a peculiar examination of Polishness: the "Holy Father" prayer forced on Mirka by the village boys to check that she is not a Jew. Would not rising to the challenge mean a death sentance?
Viewed after many years, "Birth Certificate" discloses yet another quality that is not present in the works of the Polish School, but is prominent in later B-class war films. This is the picture of everyday life during the war and occupation outlined in the three novellas. It harmonises with the logic of speaking about "life after life". Small heroes of Rozewicz suddenly enter the reality of war, with no experience or scale with which to compare it. For them, the present is a natural extension of and at the same time a complete negation of the past. Consider the sleey small-town marketplace, through which armoured columns will shortly pass. Or meet the German motorcyclists, who look like aliens from outer space - a picture taken from an autopsy because this is how Stanislaw and Taduesz perceived the first Germans they ever met. Note the blurred silhouettes of people against a white wall who are being shot - at first they are shocking, but soon they will probably become a part of the grim landscape. In the city centre stands a prisoner camp on a sodden bog ("People perish likes flies; the bodies are transported during the night"); in the street the childern are running after a coal wagon to collect some precious pieces of fuel. There's a bustle around some food (a boy reproaches his younger brother's actions by singing: "The warrant officer's son is begging in front of the church? I'm going to tell mother!"); and the kitchen, which one evening becomes the proscenium of a real drama. And there are the symbols: a bar of chocolate forced upon a boy by a Wehrmacht soldier ("On the Road"); a pair of shoes belonging to Zbyszek's father which the boy spontaneously gives to a Russian fugitive; a priceless slice of bread, ground under the heel of a policeman in the guter ("Letters from the Camp"). As the director put it: "In every film, I communicate my own vision of the world and of the people. Only then the style follows, the defined way of experiencing things." In Birth Certificate, he adds, his approach was driven by the subject: "I attempted to create not only the texture of the document but also to add some poetic element. I know it is risky but as for the merger of documentation and poety, often hidden very deep, if only it manages to make its way onto the screen, it results in what can referred to as 'art'."
After 1945, there were numerous films created in Europe that dealt with war and children, including "Somewhere in Europe" ("Valahol Europaban", 1947 by Geza Radvanyi), "Shoeshine" ("Sciescia", 1946 by Vittorio de Sica), and "Childhood of Ivan" ("Iwanowo dietstwo" by Andriej Tarkowski). Yet there were fewer than one would expect. Pursuing a subject so imbued with sentimentalism requires stylistic disipline and a special ability to manage child actors. The author of "Birth Certificate" mastered both - and it was not by chance. Stanislaw Rozewicz was always the beneficent spirit of the film milieu; he could unite people around a common goal. He emanated peace and sensitivity, which flowed to his co-workers and pupils. A film, being a group work, necessitates some form of empathy - tuning in with others.
In a biographical documentary about Stanislaw Rozewicz entitled "Walking, Meeting" (1999 by Antoni Krauze), there is a beautiful scene when the director, after a few decades, meets Beata Barszczewska, who plays Mireczka in the novella "Drops of Blood". The woman falls into the arms of the elderly man. They are both moved. He wonders how many years have passed. She answers: "A few years. Not too many." And Rozewicz, with his characteristic smile says: "It is true. We spent this entire time together."
斯图尔特演的有点用力了吧，好看是挺好看的，但这种压抑过于溢于言表了。
替KS捉急。明显未婚妻和经纪人“电影术”水平都………这样的一个商业和艺术都不可能成功的烂剧本接来给自己找麻烦。赶紧去接个好导演的戏吧……不然就……再不操练演技，真的就………哎！说回电影，这位导演是想把所有女人都演成要爱的神经病没错了！这条幻想出来的“女性之路”怕是男女都不肯买单了吧，在最爱艺术片的地方连院线都上不了，赶紧回家去反省吧，我本来以为是法国片商都……现在看来是制片编剧导演都……。还有就是mv画面感太强，跳舞那段更是。这样的剪辑，各方面技穷的表现啊！哎………
自由地爱上王子却从不思考当王妃要付出的代价，这不是爱自由，这只是任性。王妃母子的顶级凡尔赛片。小k太美啦，被女同表白那一刻的笑声太好听啦。
戴妃的故事已成公案，所以着重展现她的内心世界倒也无可非议，只是这种特写加配乐的组合拳个人实在欣赏不来。斯图尔特感觉上更像是两个孩子的姐姐而非母亲。另外，都已经说她是斯宾塞家的女孩而不是那个高高在上的王妃了，那么日复一日，年复一年地把她的故事拿出来讲，又何必呢？（最后开车唱歌那颇感动）（这导演以后再拍类似的东西，选谁当主演我都不看了）
全片一种窒息感，从开篇的冷色调开始，就奠定了这种冰冷和透凉。一个女人当她发现自己的丈夫爱着别人，原本以为的完美婚姻能抵御住寒冷的“尊贵”，在失去一切希望后，这“尊贵”只有窒息。她是癫狂的，受惊的，凌乱的，像一只迷路的小鹿，只想做属于自己的斯宾塞小姐。
基本是按着惊悚片的路子在拍，库布里克的元素随处可见——斯坦尼康跟拍，吸入式的慢速变焦，室内环境的置景和布光风格，等等等，堪称行宫版《闪灵》。很多段落对于“权力”二字的影像化是非常有力的。整套影调和视听系统放在年年如约而至的颁奖季传记片里，可以算是另辟蹊径了，直观感受相当之精彩。 可惜戴妃整个人物的心理和动机以影片所呈现的来看，既浅又薄，而且小K对于那种抓狂、濒于崩溃的人物状态，似乎把握得太表面了。
小k演的很棒～最爱的是丽莎饰演的虚拟的，代表所有关心戴安娜的角色
与《王冠》里用群戏来讲述Diana不同，这部作品明显弱化了其他角色的个人特征而聚焦于Diana的独角戏，她总是一个人蜷缩在角落，一个人穿过长长的走廊。而对于其他人导演则把他们融进声音里——珠宝的敲击声，窗外射击的枪声等等都仿佛生命流逝的声音；化入视线中——那无时无刻不在的眼睛，令人窒息的被监视感…
非常个人化角度的情感表达；反复出现的象征物：衣服（外在）、鸟（自由与被猎）、项链（枷锁）、食物（呕吐）、被封锁和遗弃的旧宅（旧的姓氏Spencer）；巴洛克（传统与规则）与自由爵士（向往自由与回归童真）的对抗与融合，以及全片主题的那段新古典极简钢琴/提琴曲
戴安娜这三个字俨然已成了一个痴心错付的悲剧象征 一个想挣脱王室桎梏的文化符号 一个绽放短短半生就凋零的红颜薄命寓言 每年都被世人不厌其烦地解读消费 神话意淫 欣赏完两小时Pablo Larraín用大量面部表情特写助推好莱坞大明星拿小金人(Round 2) 记住的是随手一截就可做桌面的构图 是Kristen Stewart建模般的侧颜和尽全力展现的压抑崩溃脆弱感 是揪着人情绪走的配乐 是用上千小时缝制的香奈儿华服 甚至是宛如同人小说的安妮博林跨时空联动 & 能脑补下秒就吻在一起的同性告白场面 但对这个二十多年前还在世上鲜活存在的女人 不敢说多懂了分毫
太无聊了。剧作上的核心矛盾还是王室成员作为个人和政治身份的冲突，无论是a故事（和王室节庆传统的冲突）还是b故事（寻回娘家姓氏）说的都是这件事。然而无论从角色创作角度还是现实的映照，本片都没有任何创新可言：王冠说了几季的核心矛盾又搬来这翻炒；哈里夫妇的闹剧比这个还精彩——整半天最后矛盾解决的方式就是出逃去吃快餐。难以理解戴安娜都在王室呆了过10年了还对王室的繁文缛节表现出如小女孩一般的不适，整部片就是一个在婆家受气想要跑回娘家的小媳妇，现实中她可是可以拥抱当时还备受歧视的艾滋病患者以反叛的心态去打破这些规则同时履行王室在慈善事业。这种在传记片对名人的报以同情式的降格和简化实在令人无法接受。西恩哈里斯的演技值得一个颁奖季男配提名。
1.拉雷恩的最新女性传记片，与[第一夫人]风格迥异，后者是乱序碎片式意识流叙事，对杰奎琳的公共与私人生活及公私虚实过渡域（访谈）同时并重，而本片则全然是描摹个人内心的寓言式（一如片首字幕）心理惊悚片。2.服化道都做到了华美的极致，也正反衬出了王妃与虚浮仪轨繁文缛节的格格不入。3.小K的表演已相当出色，与真人的贴近度我个人无法评判（但据戴妃贴身保镖等人评价，这是最真实还原的一部影视作品），对抑郁、焦虑与贪食症的展现足够真实。元表演维度：那些细小的尴尬-游离-造作之处，实而既不可控又符合整体规划，成为对戴安娜装扮演绎“人民的王妃”的象喻。4.阴郁冷暗的光色、窥视游移的广角镜头和[闪灵]式鬼片调度带来的囚困感与第三幕的明媚阳光、室外浪游形成鲜明反差。5.幻梦段落中的自由穿梭、换装、舞动、奔跑至为动人。（8.5/10）
:事实上，我爱你。
三星半，观众的思维和感知局限在电影的结构框架内，延伸不到“故事”以外的幽微和深远之境，只能通过视听传递内涵的、即时的情绪，运镜和音乐相互摩擦带来的焦虑感几乎是生理性的，聪明的地方是在小时间跨度内仍然紧紧聚焦局部，服饰和饮食被提炼为表达的情节枝干，在视觉和文本上围绕其极尽发挥，高效到像一部精致的类型片。
C / 拉雷恩这次的堆砌有些太潦草。目光的压迫出现后平白消失，声音的洞彻仿佛没有空间层次，而幽灵与陌异的家宅仅仅是粗陋的历史/记忆对应物。更不必说猎物、珠宝、华服这些全数围绕着“正常人的平凡生活”神话的扁平隐喻实在是毫无文本上点出的必要。最大的亮点大概还是那些重量悬浮又下坠的时刻：比如握在手心仿佛即将掷出却倏忽间滑落的台球，比如摇摇欲坠的阶梯上滚落的电筒和光，比如被沾染被吞咽最终散落的珍珠——可惜这些眩晕都并没有出现在足够精确的点，所以能量也在语词的空转中耗散掉了。
太差了，太差了。mv式的蒙太奇和调色，想当然的构图，乱用特写就差打一行字幕“你看她多崩溃多绝望啊”。台球桌那场戏也能被夸，鸡色丝现在是2021拜托怎么还在用这种廉价的视听手段？整体还是用人物来拍人物传记，传记片最低级的拍法。
吊打一众网大，但是珠玉在前，不过比保镖好，整体好看，4.5，多的是情怀分，彩蛋好幸福！！
口水电影，倒是挺正直，也挺有个性，但总觉得缺了点什么，看完就忘了
到仓库之前的剧情幼稚，台词尴尬，连打架斗殴都拍得很假，而且剧情抑得太过分了，让人膈应。仓库之后的剧情开始精彩纷呈，又回到了他们团队熟悉的解密风格，且剧情在线，还用上了之前的一些铺垫。感觉前面就是个两星片儿，后面值得四星，有点可惜，有点难受。
矫揉造作的巅峰之作，拙劣的《黑天鹅》模仿者。从头焦虑到尾，情感不是螺旋上升，而是毫无章法地胡乱堆砌，最后砌了个土台子出来，戛然而止，莫名其妙。先不谈戴安娜诠释得准不准确，小k首先连个妈妈都演不了，一点妈妈的感觉都没有，和俩儿子玩士兵长官游戏那段，她竟然被小孩子秒杀了，可歌可泣可叹可笑。她对焦虑的肤浅诠释让我全程面无表情，感觉很焦绿。剧本也编得烂，太想拍普通或者悲剧一面的戴安娜了，导致整个故事有种懒得处理细节直拳糊脸的感觉，非常粗浅表面，什么都没挖掘出来。奥提里面稳定垫底的必须是小k了，虽然我还差劳模姐那部没看。
