Does filming oneself and one’s own partner acting as non-professional actors equal documentary filming? Does exhibiting the process of fiction-making, or the making-of of fiction, equal non-fiction cinema? What if the non-professional acting finally gets an influence of your daily non-acting? Is reality also the result of our exercises in fictionalising reality? If two non-professional actors say that they stop acting when the camera continues to record, did they “really” stop acting? Is any exhibited making-of of a film, even the making-of of the making-of of the film, potentially fictional? Would the fictionality of the making-of be more real than the reality of the fiction which the making-of refers to? What if a dying man or a two year-old child participate in an explicitly staged fiction? Can they be prepared enough, manipulated enough, in order to not bring some non-fictional reality into fiction? If the explicitly staged fiction displays the drama of a non-professional actress being manipulated by the rules of acting, does this mean that the non-professional actress is less manipulated, in reality, because she accepts being manipulated in order to express through her acting how bad it would be to be a manipulated non-professional actress? Does a meta-cinematic reflection rise when we realise that the ethical questions discussed in the drama coincide with the classical ethical questions of documentary filmmaking, like the question of filming and, in a way, seeking for suffering? If the pact between the non-professional actors would be to perform their own real life, would the non-scripted moments of improvisation go beyond the limit of their acting domain and show an effective non-fiction? Which should be the position of the spectator when, the explicit ambiguity between fiction and non-fiction notwithstanding, the highly credible dialogues make us suspend our disbeliefs? Should we resist the suspension of disbelief only because the realistic dialogue of a couple stops at once with the couple revealing their acting? When the non-professional actors, a couple themselves, start then to behave as if in their acting performances, should their previous dialogues be taken as even more credible or even more staged?

All these questions arose in me during the viewing of Xiaozhen Wang’s two-hours long Love Poem. Even if the film is not devoid of genuinely dramatic moments, which we experience when we surrender to the cinematic suspension of disbelief, its main filmic experience coincides with our own intellectual inquiry on fiction and non-fiction. The climax of the interlocking layers of fiction and non-fiction comes in the last scene of the film, where the filmmaker takes the initiative to stop the camera, but this scene will confirm the impossibility of attempting to disentangle fiction and non-fiction. Then music will appear. Yes, Love Poem is mainly intellectual cinema, and I cannot but immediately add: so what? For in speaking of “intellectual cinema”, I already feel the pressure, today, of having to defend its legitimate existence against the anti-intellectualism that seems to loom among film scholars and cinephiles… Cinema has told, tells, and will always tell the story of the reflection on its own dispositive and fundamental issues.

这片子就是冲着蜘蛛侠荷兰弟来的。一直很好奇，离开了蜘蛛侠的光环，他还能演出什么样的作品。

我不知道为什么看这个作品的时候会莫名想到《后羿弃兵》，不清楚。

这片子是一个典型的反战片。片子整体最大的特点就是，荷兰弟经常打破“第四面墙”以及影片采用章回体的形式向我们观众讲述一个老兵的故事。真正改变荷兰弟的我相信就是他军营生活中好朋友的突然去世。如果当初长官听取了荷兰弟的意见，我相信肯定不会有那么多的幺蛾子。所以当我看到那儿的时候，我的确有一种想手撕长官的冲动。要是现实战争中真发生了这种情况，那名长官会被告上军事法庭吗？希望有大神可以科普一下。

所以退役后的荷兰弟为了逃避PTSD的影响，选择麻痹自己。我不知道是不是一种错觉，我总感觉美国的PTSD管理上就是一坨shit，反正这部电影让我突然对《美国狙击手》有一种肃然起敬的感觉。当然了可能不了解，所评论的言论也会一定程度上有失偏颇。

开始选择麻痹自己的荷兰弟也带坏了他的女朋友，那名我觉得巨好看的女演员（太好看了md！）。所以从这个情节开始这部电影给我的感觉是越来越堕落。抢银行，注射各种drugs，然后出现各种不适。那可是刚上过战场的战士啊！我无论怎么想也没想到一名退役的军人会干出这种事情。太令人唏嘘了。

可能这部电影最大的bug就是最后荷兰弟的自首，我不太懂他那个时候的心路历程转变，讲的还是很粗糙，没有交代完整，可能我觉得导演执导的超级英雄故事过多，这些故事相对来说叙事结构单一，心路历程改变有明显的套路，所以当换题材执导的时候，自然会出现一些bug。

说个题外话，影片中荷兰弟的女朋友真的是真爱了，不管是当兵的两年，还是在监狱里的那段时间，一直对荷兰弟不离不弃。这种纯粹的感情真好啊，希望每个人都能收获到这种纯粹的感情。

这剧心脏要够强大才看。太虐观众了。看着容易得内伤。 得到了又因为第三者而失去的爱情太伤人了。 因为前面齐伟和淑荣的感情铺垫得很真（虽然很短暂），所以后面齐伟选择欣梅以及对她的好把我虐得太惨了。换做现实生活中我会觉得淑荣这种爱着一个不值得的人太傻了。 可是周一围把这个“渣”角色演得这么好，我开始理解淑荣并理解现实中那些所谓单恋的痴情
