I have not seen anything as powerful as this
Decalogue V
the tint of death, the smell of guilt, the fist of the law
the landscapes, never had i seen trees crying
never had i seen the streets weeping
weeping for the killing, the desire to kill, we had lost him...
the ochre colours, seem to point out that all that happened is in the distant past
but it could not hide, the suffering man, the guilty soul
the lonely violin music plays out in the eve of his sentence
he took his last puff, and made his last struggle, his last fight against his destiny
an unchangable destiny. for once, i feel so helpless, it is so inevitable, so correct...
but i can't help but feel the diminishing humanity... of life...
sorry " run lola run" and "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind", this film is now in my number one list.
it is not a film that can be gauged, or judged. No doubt it is good, but it can kill, it killed me. can anyone still claim to be guiltless upon watching this film?
as i turned my head and lie back on my chair in the singapore pavilion, i do not have the mood to watch another one of the decalogue series. the death scene still looms in my head, and i have plenty to think about...
