I began to care about my parents. The thing I most want now is to make a lot of money. Lots and lots of money. I want to buy an apartment in 24 City for my parents.

Mountains May Depart (2015) & Smog Journeys (2015)

Movies #1,126 & 1,127 • Part of My JIA ZHANGKE Director Focus

This one is pretty great until the final act, which is baffling and more than a bit goofy. The aesthetic vision of 2025 from the perspective of 2015 aside, this segment features some of the most head-scratching dialogue we’ve ever seen in a Jia Zhangke film (a line like “it’s as if Google Translate is your real son” is overtly bad, while something like “now that I can legally own guns, I have nothing to shoot at” is subtly bad).

Also, while I generally appreciate how flippant J.Z. is with the narrative, following and ditching characters on a whim, here it's a detriment. The character of Liangzi is essentially an afterthought at every turn, existing solely as a counterpoint to a life that Zhao Tao might have had, and even as that it feels slight and unnecessary (like he couldn't possibly tell a story without somebody existing on the lower rung).

SCORE: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
