정말 백남준의 유머란... 기상천외...
큰 소리로 웃었다. 오랜만에.

"아주 자연스럽고 평범하게 볼 수 있는 일을 단지 확대하거나 강조했을 뿐이다.
현실을 대상으로 그 안에 있는 추상적 부분과 표현주의적 요소들을 찾아내는 것이다.
거기엔 항상 뿌리가 있다." - 지아장커(贾樟柯)
문득 화면을 정면으로 바라보고 서 있는 등장인물
그 뒤에서 아무렇지도 않게 등장하는 main character
한 인물에서 다른 인물로의 이동을 보라.
그저 아무 말 필요없이 그 쇼트만으로 내게 울림을 주는 영화들이 있다.

The Japanese agression against China in 1937 forced the Chinese communists to join Chiang Kai-shek's Kwomintang to take up the battle against their common ennemy. In 1938 Joris Ivens and John Ferno went to China, later joined by Robert Capa, to film the battle of T'aiertshwang; one of the few combats won by the Chinese. The film shows all aspects of a war: the battle itself, the preparations, refugees, casualties and victims, the fear and distress, the human misery and the courage, and the land under fire. Although filming for the Chinese, Ivens and his crew were checked by the censors of the Kwomintang as to prevent that the communists would be given too much prominence. Nonetheless, Joris Ivens succeeded in contacting the communists, leaving them a camera and some reels of film so they could film their battle. This camera has been exhibited in the Museum of the Revolution in Peking.
