Many directors lack the ability to depict conversation with the same intensity as physical action, leading to films that resemble mere recorded plays. This trend is alleviated by filmmakers like Celine Song, whose newest work, 'Materialists', showcases an evolution from her first film, 'Past Lives'. With a similar romantic triangle narrative, 'Materialists' features a professional matchmaker caught between two men, displaying exceptional dialogue and a unique cinematic style that elevates the film's storytelling.
The bulk of the work is usually left to the cast: the routine version of a movie involves pictures of actors acting, like audiovisual fragments of plays.
Celine Song's 'Materialists' marks a significant artistic advancement over her debut, showcasing not only her dialogue writing but her innovative cinematic identity as well.
