A sharp, witty, mind-expanding and exuberant foray into the world of logic with computer scientist Professor Dave Cliff. Following in the footsteps of the award-winning 'The Joy of Stats' and its sequel, 'Tails You Win - The Science of Chance', this film takes viewers on a new rollercoaster ride through philosophy, maths, science and technology- all of which, under the bonnet, run on logic.
Wielding the same wit and wisdom, animation and gleeful nerdery as its predecessors, this film journeys from Aristotle to Alice in Wonderland, sci-fi to supercomputers to tell the fascinating story of the quest for certainty and the fundamentals of sound reasoning itself.
Dave Cliff, professor of computer science and engineering at Bristol University, is no abstract theoretician. 15 years ago he combined logic and a bit of maths to write one of the first computer programs to outperform humans at trading stocks and shares. Giving away the software for free, he says, was not his most logical move...
With the help of 25 seven-year-olds, Professor Cliff creates, for the first time ever, a computer made entirely of children, running on nothing but logic. We also meet the world's brainiest whizz-kids, competing at the International Olympiad of Informatics in Brisbane, Australia.
'The Joy of Logic' also hails logic's all-time heroes: George Boole who moved logic beyond philosophy to mathematics; Bertrand Russell, who took 360+ pages but heroically proved that 1 + 1 = 2; Kurt Godel, who brought logic to its knees by demonstrating that some truths are unprovable; and Alan Turing, who, with what Cliff calls an 'almost exquisite paradox', was inspired by this huge setback to logic to conceive the computer.
Ultimately, the film asks, can humans really stay ahead? Could today's generation of logical computing machines be smarter than us? What does that tell us about our own brains, and just how 'logical' we really are...?
电影情绪极好，紧绷的弦直到最后一刻，多维度的角色张力伴随扭曲的西部景色，几乎让观众喘不过气来。
值得讨论和深挖的地方很多，但看起来是真的闷。
罗马之后，第二部给Netflix电影四星，画面很棒，人物关系的发展很隐晦但很有暗张力
同时也理解了简姨这样的作者导演低产的原因，这样的创作无疑是极耗精力的。
暗藏晦涩的情愫与谋杀，压抑收敛的精妙表达。多处心理描写细节回想才能发觉，人物特征没有表面上看的简单，后劲足。
文明与野性，夺子—弑父—成人

211001 NYFF 改成短片会好很多。
竟然是这种电影。我本将心向明月，奈何明月要杀我。
我说怎么看出来点血色将至的味道原来配乐是绿木啊…完全没有共情点，技术上四星
一个羊吃狼的故事。“恐同即深柜”的题材不算新鲜，新鲜的是，在一个大家本以为是浪漫耽美的叙事里，笔锋一转，揭穿了可笑的“男子气概”，不过是一身画皮，是道送命题。一个深柜口中嘲讽的“娘炮”，整天哭唧唧、泪兮兮，弱不禁风的小白兔，反而是笑到最后那个最“tough”的人。今年卷福的一票我投啦！
荒蛮和文明的冲突，masculinity vs femininity. 拍的细腻悬疑。
坦诚地说这不是我喜欢的那类作品。要不是想刷完所有提名，可能我都不会坚持完前30分钟。不得不说杀人的手法很意外，不过节奏太慢太慢，“不相关”的段落太多（可能需要二刷来确定它们是否可以被删除），很难定义影片的类型。
典型学院派电影，极度需要耐心才能看完，对普通观众极不友好
“He tried to destroy the world before the world destroy him.”
这种极度克制下的步步揭秘实在太舒服了，导演好像什么都没说，却又把所有的事实摆在了你的面前，好像给了你一个转机，却又在戛然而止中告诉你真正的事实。当你望向那座形如撕咬之犬的远山，好不容易敞开心扉，却未想到这是你最后一次去展示软弱——最后的转换把父权社会下要求的“男性气概”打得一败涂地，你的所得所见或许并非如此。
BC现在最大的问题，凡是剧情片角色，他都会用力过猛，这真是一个演员很本质的东西，难调整和改变。当然，这部片所有，都没一个像西部的，大家都在很努力的演出西部牛仔的粗旷和性感，就连大山、蓝天和白云都在努力，但结果不如人意。其实，换个时代、社会背景也许更适合这一群人。这也是整部片看下来，始终觉得有种不协调感的原因所在
看到最后一刻才知道这是个恐怖悬疑故事而非乡村纯朴同性爱情故事，有毒的小狐狸玩死了忠诚的老狗～邓斯特的表演很赞，马脸也不错，简导的奥斯卡bd应该是锁了。
卷福演的真是好，抽烟喷烟那两下，真是绝了，还有那些眼神，太牛了。少年的梳子是在什么电影里看过吗，总觉得有印象，但是想不起来了。西部片演的这么回荡，真的是难得，
点到为止的叙事，简单干净的画面，却后劲十足、细思极恐……
