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.
Tomas出场的几次，连背景音乐都是暧昧，结果最关键的一幕给我整个一剪没。但不管怎样，又是经历了一次唐顿的花开花落。
大部分演员们都老了，可还是希望能长长久久拍下去。
上映没去，终于还是看了。太多pair过于美好，但也可以说是一种美好的愿望。老太太终于落幕了，真的好喜欢她，Mary接过担子继续吧，be the dragon！虽然片子对主仆制度有很多美化，但是抛去那些外在身份，主仆各自都能居其位做其事，也是因为彼此的理解和感情吧。别的不说，那个时代对同性恋污名化很严重，他们也能理解barrow并且帮他keep decent。电影本身情节其实没啥，但我太吃感情牌了哈哈，毕竟是看过两遍剧集的人！
【2022/07/02】没想到2022年还能看唐顿庄园
所有人都到了对的位置，老太太演技没话说……
70分/很华丽，故事也还不错，但有些说不上的别扭
每次看唐顿无论是剧集还是“电影”，都有一种小时候看TVB或者香港贺岁片的感觉，剧情很紧凑，节奏也快，像是在吃麻辣烫，各种串串加上味精调料摆你面前。这部电影版为了强调自己真的是电影，把电影发展史都加进来了，作为影迷，我表示——没有被“按摩”到。贵族太太的声音比底层出生电影女明星的声音更适合上电影，且那位底层出生的电影女明星就要被塑造成粗鄙无礼，这种设定我本身就不是很喜欢，似乎隐隐暗示：新技术的到来，反而让底层（口音）“原形毕露”，这个世界终究是贵族阶层的。无论唐顿把楼上楼下的关系描写的多么其乐融融，但那种阶级内核是不会消融在贵族太太和老爷们的浅笑盈盈里的。这也就是为什么我觉得她像TVB，用“一家人齐齐整整”来粉饰内在的保守封建的气质。
前半剪辑节奏有点凌乱无法入戏，后半渐入佳境
31/05/2022 #ACSB# A new era for sure, but there are things that will be passed on for generations and won't ever change. If you can't sell that to the Great British public than what can you sell.. And Violet had most of the punch lines.
It’s the end of an era,as the opening of another.
剧中每一幕都是精心设计，精致的服饰，不乏幽默的对话，看着很是赏心悦目。
其实唐家屯一直伴随着隐约不明显的世界线，但有种奇怪的感觉，好像到今天，岁月才终于在这些我们熟悉的人物脸上留下痕迹。时代落幕总让人唏嘘，哪怕是毫无意外的Ending。
Bravo
始于婚礼 终于葬礼 时代远去 让我安静的死去
唐家屯是个美好的地方，总是乐于助人，也就总能收获美满，富贵温馨，祥瑞快乐，同时极富感染力，让每一个生活其间的人都被同化感召。本片最令人遗憾的是老太太终于走了。
这一部依然很唐顿，没有太多的波澜起伏但是却很隽永，看到最后老夫人的去世以及人来人往，还是很唏嘘。P.S.唐家屯电影系列就是每一部看完都想把剧挖出来再看一遍。
希望在这里就结束，与我们，一个美好时代的回忆，与他们，30年代的起始。
即使早就弃剧（不是因为质量，是我太爱大表哥）再次回到唐顿，看见亲切的角色们依旧是感概万千啊！真好看！真好看
Bravo
唐顿，本质上是个大俗剧，双双对对匹配好的格局加上精心修饰的风波。然而人如故友，故而希望他们一切安好。
