Arkham, 1975: Jonathan Davis' father has disappeared. His tracks lead to Germany, to the Swabian-Franconian Forest where he was stationed after the Second World War. Jonathan sets out to find him and bring him home, but deep in the woods he discovers a dark mystery from the past. Based on H.P. Lovecraft's short novel "The Colour Out of Space".
brutashell review - 'Filmed in black and white and primarily spoken in German, it is obvious that Die Farbe did not have a huge budget to work with. Effects are minimal and the cast is utterly unknown. I should point out that these are all good things, and work very much in the film's favour. There is no CGI to rely on, no name actors to carry it. Rather, the filmmakers do the unthinkable: they create a genuine atmosphere of unimaginable dread and unspeakable horror, using shadow, suggestion and rare splashes of that Nameless colour in a few select frames. In short, they did a damn good job. Die Farbe is subtle in its mounting horror, nurturing a dark dread deep in your bowels with every shot. All of the best and most stomach-turningly distressing films I’ve ever seen have come out of Germany: M, The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari, The White Ribbon, and now this one. Leave it to the Germans. We know how to gross you out on the deepest psychological levels.
Lovecraft worshippers and devotees of German Expressionism alike, take heed: seek out and view this film at your earliest possible convenience. It’s a dark, noisome little gem that will squirm into your subconscious and lay its eggs in your sanity. Hey, not everyone gets the honour of being a host organism for the Elder Gods, you know.'
跳跃的情节，犹豫不绝的父母和没有下文的结局，仿佛导演翻出小男孩日记挑选几个片断拍的。正片用黑白表现出历史感，他们看的电影反倒是彩色的。满脸深深皱纹的奶奶不知是熟悉的演员真的已经垂垂老矣还是化妆效果。妈妈不仅漂亮，身材也太好了，和奶奶站在门口的一场戏，镜头从远处仰拍，哇，修长优雅
一些片段的剪辑速度似乎与画面构图有仇，摆出如此精致的构图，还没来得及仔细看，剪辑很快切到下一个画面。同样是小孩子的视角，以告别和成长为主题，这么对比《八月》真棒啊，声画都有雕刻时光的味道。
Go. Go now. Don't look back. I love you, son.
Go! Go now. Don't look back! 结尾朱迪丹奇喃喃自语目送一家人离去，电影酝酿已久的乡愁也到了高潮。但也许是那段北爱宗教暴乱的历史过去沉重，削弱了主题，特别是从孩子的视角看许多桥段设计过于刻意，太像舞台剧不够自然，感染力欠缺。不过，诗意的摄影加超赞的配乐，以及演员整体在线的演技，还是值得推荐。最后，豆瓣评分这么低，难道观众口味都喜欢国内院线电影了🤮？
2022年的二月末又看了一遍，竟然不知道曾经看过，然而这次感悟颇深，给4颗星🌟🌟🌟🌟
Kenneth Branagh的童年，写给故乡Belfast的一封情书。影像和叙事会让我想到《罗马》，都是怀念的故事啊！
说到底还是私人情调加分了，问题出在简单的不像回事啊~
确实是更糖水更relatable的roma
未免太悬浮了 感觉没有回忆的真实和温度反而像是漂浮在舞台上的一出舞台剧 cinematography搞得像是photography 不缺乏美感但是缺乏影像的流动感 就非常平庸吧 即使题材应该能让我感同身受也始终没有产生情感联结
3.黑白压抑，我还以为用黑白是有什么深意，但是感觉导演就是为了用黑白而用黑白，就是喜欢黑白，可能
这部电影，个人觉得还是很文艺很文艺的。
No matter how far you go, you never forget where you came from.
不了解爱尔兰国情的，被开篇惊到。。。生活在莫名仇视的社区里真令人恐慌。。。小男孩巴迪非常可爱，他和相濡以沫的爷爷奶奶的对话总是稚趣十足，前半部社区混乱对人们生活的影响刻画生动，后半部妈妈纠结于移民，似无必要，毕竟移民去英国，无论生活品质还是安全都会有保证。。。爸爸帅妈妈美
英伦三岛一直就不平静…屁大的地方，争来争去～配乐真是不错，黑白的太差劲
除了爷爷告诉小男孩，会有新的生活，新的朋友，不会有人嘲笑你的口音那里，稍稍被感动到一些，其余部分都无聊到要睡着。能激起背井离乡之人心中的一点点涟漪，但还远远不够。
私人乡愁故事。go, go now, don't look back, I love you
想起狗脸的岁月和昇哥的《美好的哲学课》
3.5
不是套个黑白滤镜就怀旧复古高级了，电影院屏幕画面是彩色的看的人却是黑白的，这个设计没理解出彩的点在哪，从故事到叙事都平庸，一些构图和镜头语言更不明表里，奥斯卡最佳影片居然入围这部都没有暗处的女儿，实在不解。
肯导这次拍自传算是用了心思，情感真挚，但缺了一丝细腻。有些表面的技巧，旋转运镜构图色彩等在这类作品里不能加分甚至减分（当然如果波洛侦探里能继续发挥还挺期待的），不能掩盖住情节松散和punchline的缺失。表演上，妈妈部分片段有点用力过度了（太戏剧了hhh），其他都还不错。
