默片里男人和女人都长的差不多 妆发太过统一大概 这是个不免俗的故事 但是也挺现实带子狼
3.7斯蒂勒导演的优美电影，瑞典的自然风光真好，男主角站着木头漂越河流的场面算是影史经典桥段，主打的爱情戏其实有些繁琐，删一个半个小时的就简练了大1哥哥
木筏漂流戏的 粉蓝2色对照，包括对河流的拍摄，美的不可理喻，难以想象还有比这拍的更美的。其他的看不太明白，还需要多想想，对比一下瑞典的电影特色到底是什么Johnny Macca
很美的电影，瑞典乡野自然风光很美，年轻的2K拉尔斯汉森很美（而且没想到居然这么灵活矫健），圆木漂流部分胶片染的蓝色搭配宽阔河面上翻滚的激流波浪实在是太漂亮了鼹鼠有腱鞘炎
小红花之歌，圆木过河，斯蒂勒真爱拍惊险过河，波涛汹涌，北欧多自然美景
