Pointing Like Knives Together: Alang Watches a Movie
by Alang
About This Novel
This is Alang's first collection of film essays, written between 2010 and 2016. In the book, Alang searched for people and things related to movies since the invention of movies, especially in recent years, including James Cameron, Christopher Nolan, Ann Hui, Hou Hsiao-hsien, Stephen Chow... Movies are the shape of time, and the reason why we have been looking for good movies is because good movies can liberate time. Alang analyzed all the bizarre aspects of movies as both art and commodities, covering topics such as the film industry, capital, box office, directors, actors, audiences, human nature, morality, technology, daily life and other topics. There is nothing obscure and profound, only the sharpness of a knife. This is a media person's independent thinking and criticism of movies and related industries. The world, like the movie, is not getting worse, it's just that we are busy being harsh on the "bad" and giving the "good" less and less opportunities to become amber. May this world and the movie be well.

So verbose
It's very general and has no real content.
