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."
在简单的主线上插满梗的爆米花喜剧，没有预期的GTA感。背景在那，却没有得到充分的发挥。内核没有深挖，主题肤浅，还是美国佬那套自由。模板化强，缺乏惊喜。节奏控制稀烂。整体一般。
在杜比厅看爆米花好爽。“虽然我不是真实的，但体验的感情都是真实的。如果这都不算，还有什么算真实呢？”所以这也是写给电影的一封情书。
游戏角色被赋予生命意识，成为一个具有独立人格思想的意识客体，而非机械式日复一日重复死循环，过着不被程式化的“游戏人生”，讽刺了当下社会群体被生活被社会所麻木，被安排被操控，本是具有独立意识的生命体却沦为无意识的行尸走肉，当然，导演也给了玩家们玩好“人生游戏”的方向以及秘诀： Don't have a good day，have a great day
想象力很一般，片中描述的场景现今技术完全可以做到，只是还到不了消费级市场而已。游戏中的NPC觉醒之后就知道跟玩家谈恋爱？真不知道是看不起AI还是看不起人类。
头号玩家+西部世界+楚门的世界+黑客帝国+攻壳机动队，简直牛逼坏了。ps：有句台词大家可能没太在意，但是直接让我破防，感觉好孤单好无奈“对了，我真名叫米莉”“呃....我....依然叫---盖=.=”
其实我们还不如这里面的NPC幸福，他们吃的都免费，也不用上班了，真好，真正的和谐世界！最后的狗粮也真是…这就是程序猿的浪漫吧！
“我只是写给你的一封情书，写情书的那个人在那个世界。”探讨类似题材的电影数不胜数，耳熟能详的《黑客帝国》《楚门的世界》《移魂都市》等等，如果我们的世界也只是别人创造的虚拟世界，那么世界的真相到底是什么？
暑期档终于有部正经爆米花了，虽然夏天马上就过完了，也没多好，就是想给打高一点，救救孩子救救暑期档吧
低配的《楚门的世界》+《头号玩家》
以舊瓶裝新酒的形式，講了一個符合這個時代的故事。
好甜好快乐呜呜呜呜啊我疯狂推眼镜抹泪……顺便Joe终于不再是男妈妈了（
对这种设定没有抵抗力，就像40年代有《街角的商店》，90年代有《电子情书》，这大概就是新世代的代码爱。但真的过于迪士尼感，看完的感受大概就是：啊今年的迪士尼动画真不错。
如果那一吻是为时已晚的结局而不是被加速的转折点，我想会更符合我的期待。当然，一切就乱了。
前面真的特别欢腾，典型的弹幕电影，就应该一堂子人一起哈哈哈地乐。但反派真的太蠢太弱了，而且这爱情来得太快也太像龙卷风了。
影片和某些差评游戏有着相似的套路，缺乏爽快的剧情，缺乏一个具有压迫感的boss，以及一个烂尾的结局。插曲好听，一些彩蛋也很有意思，但整体上依然很乏味。游戏本身就是一种游离于现实的娱乐方式，当游戏角色以及npc之间都开始相亲相爱了，这样的游戏会有人玩么？
放松心情看完，这么好的设定结尾太简单，不过让我心情很好
所有的浪漫氛围都被“情书”给毁了，积攒的饱满情绪都在那一瞬间针扎一样泄气了。free guy根本就不是truman的故事，是falseman的故事，甚至这都不是他的故事。
基本上核心没有创造，全是借鉴：从《模拟人生》到《侠盗猎车手》和《黑道圣徒》，从《土拨鼠之日》到《楚门的世界》再到《西部世界》……而且情节的连缀显得太过于轻飘跳跃，如果能把普通生活和NPC的相似之处、感情中的虚拟和真实这些地方深入一些会更有意思。
第四天灾具现化。多可怕，你的跌宕起伏，不过是创世神的一封情书。
3.5，纯玩，纯享受，从头乐到尾。OMG！死侍拿着美队的盾牌和尤达的光剑，这是动作片版的楚门的世界
