Mark Cousins, who previously discussed a century of film history in his major work "Film History," reflects on the tumultuous decade of the cinematic revolution as global theaters are frozen by the pandemic. Moving away from chronological storytelling, he adopts a free associative approach, weaving images together into a fantastical poem that sparks inspiration. Sleeping in Apichatpong's "Memoria," waking in Carax's "Holy Motors," seeing Tsai Ming-liang's VR panoramic ghosts, Godard's dislocated 3D perspectives, and then suddenly plunging from the stark black-and-white of "Cold War" into the psychedelic colors of "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse"... Ten years feel like a moment, with cinema beautiful and eternal. This is not just a documentary; it's a philosophical meditation exploring human collective consciousness, synchronously gazing at empty cities and theaters under the pandemic. Between wakefulness and closing one's eyes, it leads the audience to question reality, imagine the future, and from these vividly remembered works, see their own reflections chasing the big screen. It's not just a sequel to the previous work, but a memo for the next wave of cinephiles.
