Il Manifesto: La generazione smarrita di Taiwan, illusa dalle sirene del successo

LUNGYIN LIM immerses the coast in a sinister light and ethnographically films the rituals and celebrations of the local carnival based on fire: each end is a new beginning and while the high tide withdraws making hope for a good harvest, the streets crackling with pyrotechnic games, the pyres burn on the ocean shore to propitiate the reincarnation of the old in the new.

放映週報:以一個下沉的蚵村,作為台灣縮影:訪《蚵豐村》導演林龍吟

「除了放在當代台灣電影環境下,極富特色與感官性的影像與聲音才華,這層把故事架設在具象歷史與親近鄉土時空之後,仍試圖展現抽象探尋的智性野心與自我要求,是林龍吟這位創作潛力股,值得所有關心國片發展的影迷朋友,另一振奮之處。」

It captures the people’s appearance and the impressive scenery of the fishing village in its own style, while the influence of the Taiwanese masters is evident.

recalls the rainbows of buzzing lights and colours in Tsai Ming Liang’s debut Rebels of the Neon God (1992). But, Lim’s aesthetic choices go beyond homage to the seductive urban dystopias of Second New Wave filmmakers like Tsai, instead harnessing their scintillating lustre to convey the struggle, longing and loneliness of fringe spaces like Ohong Village.

ROUGH CUT Review: Ohong Village ★★★★

"Ohong Village embraces the strain between new and old, and its radiating celluloid texture locks it in a space of memory that is painfully trying to catch up to the present. The lies of father and son become an intergenerational tapestry of ignorance allowing pain and longing to flourish where oysters and careers won’t."

The Reel Bits ★★★★

"The beauty of OHONG VILLAGE is that it can be read in the literal sense, as a tension between generations who place different values on wealth, but it also speaks to a far more universal notion of personal worth."

"OHONG VILLAGE marks the boundary between the old and the new, offering westerners and Taiwanese equal access to the subtleties of generational divides, living up to family expectations, and reconciliation with the past."

放映週報 焦點影評:不曾離開、尚未沉沒的《蚵豐村》

「這樣以地方人物為主題,強調人與環境、物件之間關係的構圖和場面調度,令人想起臺灣新電影時期的王童、侯孝賢的作品,有趣的是,電影中相較之下不那麼「寫實」,高度風格化、並刻意留下缺口的部分,卻更深刻地影響著電影的進行。」

FILM CRITIK: ‘Ohong Village’ Review: Lim Lung Yin’s Debut on Yearnings Far From Taipei ★★★★

"Lim Lung Yin’s OHONG VILLAGE is a modern-day retelling of a disconnected and discontented filial relationship in a small ebbing fishing village. The decision to use film gives this drama a vintage quality to it that is Euro-style reflective and melancholic."

今年目前為止看到最厲害的台灣電影

既視感:蚵豐村

「《蚵豐村》它如實的呈現台灣中南沿海地區陰鬱、疏離、哀傷,但還是有點可愛的樣貌。雖然片中奇幻、出乎常理的地方甚少,但這或許可以稱之為特屬於台灣當代的魔幻寫實。這當中的魔幻,並不是指那些畫面上的神奇時刻以及敘事上的破格,而是那種存藏在現代都會人們想像或遙遠記憶裡,看似時空停滯的鄉村日常。」
