The Wild Pear Tree (official trailer)

The scene where the actor comes out of exam hall the parents asking him about if the exam had ended reminds me of the same culture in india where parents wait for their children out of examhall. Nostalgic

This movie is almost a different genre from most plot-driven films. It unfolds like a cinematic version of a great Russian novel - which could never be well translated to a movie version. Although it moves slowly, the situations and topics are sophisticated and the scenes reveal life’s mysteries and paradoxes without the crutch of Western philosophical framing and in a way that seems more natural.

[@DarkAngelEU]

So it's like a Tarkovsky movie, but still plot-driven?

[@sifta7]

@@DarkAngelEU Good characterization. Also, less stylized, and more modern and accessible.

[@DarkAngelEU]

@@sifta7 K might watch it tomorrow. If you're up for it, I'd recommend Kala Azar. Something completely different, but I really liked it :)

[@DarkAngelEU]

@@sifta7 I watched it and I definitely got Tarkovsky vibes, but not necessarily in a good way. The movie feels like it tries to emulate existential themes and art (Beckett's Waiting for Godot, Tarkovsky, Dostoevsky) into something that could appeal to Turkish audiences, but at the same time it forgets to have its own voice. Still a good movie though

[@sifta7]

Umutla alakalı ne mesajı verdi ben tam anlayamadım siz ne anladınız ?

[@Graham567]

@@zeynelabidinkusdemir6058 Sinan'ın bütün hayatı umutla geçti. O "bezelye tanesi gibi birbirinin tıpa tıp aynısı" insanlara benzememek için umut etti. Babası ve dedesi gibi dışlanmış, farklı, anlaşılmayan bir insan olmamak için umut etti. Bu ailedeki babalar ne kadar farklı olsalar da tıpatıp aynılardı. Hep hayatları bir yere kadar iyi gitmiş, sonra taşa vurmuşlar. Anlaşılmamışlar. Köpekle kurdukları bağı insanlara tercih etmişler. Sonunda da kitabını sadece babası okuyup anlayınca öğrendi ki, çoktan onlara benzemiş. Çünkü onu ondan başka anlayacak bir insan daha dünyaya gelmemiş. O yüzden bir kareliğine Sinan'ı kuyuya asılmış olarak gördük. Sinan; o umutlu, inançlı, Çan'dan kurtulmak isteyen Sinan'ı o kuyuya astı çünkü. Babasının oğlu oldu ve kuyuya küreği vurmaya başladı. Belki bir 10 metre daha Sinan ömrü boyunca kazacak. Ondan sonra oğlu. Kısır bir döngü. Köyden kurtulamamış ama beyni olan insanın yaşadığı döngüdür. Yitip gitmek yani. Pis, dedikoducu, sıkıntıdan birbirini kalleşçe boğazlayan köy halkı gibi olmamak için. Çok azı kurtulur, çok büyük insan olurlar. NBC gibi.

[@ronmaren4135]

Ben de Brezilyadayım, neresindesiniz?

[@Graham567]

The look of the grandfather is the same with İdris' look at the Sinan. They all become one and eachother. It's a disease that they can't escape. They all felt same disappointment when they saw their son in the well. Sinan will feel the same disappointment if his son fail to escape Çan, and finding his own unique identity within the similar, pea-like looking society of the Çan. Every Turkish child is doomed to live this dilemma. It's depressing and half of us doesn't survive this. We either hang our hopes just like Sinan did, and go with the flow of corrupt society or we literally hang ourselves to finish this misery. The people who can escape usually work for the well being of other countries.

[@DarkAngelEU]

@@milk_cow_blues Believe it or not, but it's pretty much the same anywhere around the world. I live at the heart of Europe and even here people are torn between moving away from their families and their traditions to pursue a different career, or get stuck in the "village" (literally, or a family company) and give up on their dreams. It's a universal theme of shying away from your roots, but in the end roots are important to sustain growth.

“ Bezelye taneleri gibi birbirine benzeyen bir sürü insan “

[@Graham567]

Filmin bütün anlamı buydu. Bezelye tanelerine benzeyen bir sürü insan, ve aynı bardakta çalkalandıkları halde (imam demişti bunu) onları yargılayan insanlar. Sinan buradan kurtulup bardaktan kaçmak istedi fakat başaramadı. Tıpkı babası ve onun babası gibi. Sinan, İdris ve Recep olup çıktı. Sonunda bardakta çalkalanmayı kabullendiler. Kötüsü de şudur ki, belki bu olay her köyde yaşanıyor. Nice insanlar başkalarının yargısı yüzünden sarı bezelye tanesine dönüşüyor fakat o bardaktan dışarı taşamıyorlar. Sonra hepsi kızdığımız o gerici çehrelere çevriliyorlar. Halbuki hepsi sadece yenilgiyi kabullenmiş ve yitmiş insanlar. Hayat biz Türklere çok acımasız...

[@BigX92]

The last scene was dope

[@randomman2024]

Tarkovsky effect

[@DarkAngelEU]

Definitely my favourite part of the movie, but it could have cut so much just for this final scene to be so much stronger. Now, I quit around 2h20m, after the discussion with the imams, because I got bored of all the references to other existential material and literature, and the last act is so weak I simply didn't care anymore, up until the father returned. This movie really drags along because it wants to be like Tarkovsky and it's knocking itself down a notch because of it.

[@ozerilhan1]

The movie is about a son and a father's relationship. Sons anger, unfit wild nature comes from his immature, unhealthy relation with his father as he doesn't want to see him like that. And the father is living or better if we say surviving by expelling himself from society as his heart amd soul is full of regrets...

@@bigchainring1977 I actually agree, this is something people who emulate Tarkovsky rarely take away from Tarkovsky: there should be a hint of magic in your movie if you want to show how beautiful ordinary life can be. This movie fails at doing so, and it really drags on for no real reason other than showing how "boring" and "depressing" rural Turkish life is. The only thing I got from it, is that the son is an asshole, no better than his father, and I don't feel sorry for him getting stuck in this village bc he's rather selfish and doesn't show any qualities that make him any different from his father.

Şurada kaç para tutar bir filmi yabancı dile çevirmek? Sonrayı düşünmeliyiz. Ilgiyle gelecekte daha çok ilgi ve dağıtıma ulaşılır. Böyle de daha çok satış yapılır. Önce dünyaya türk filmini tanıtmalıyız. Nuri Bilge Ceylan filmlerin hepsi önemli dillere cevrilmeli. En Azından İngilizceye, oyuncular bile bunu yapabilir. Her sanatçı iyi kötü İngilizceyi biliyor.
