scenes from The Scent of Green Papaya (1993) dir. Trần Anh Hùng

#so so SO gorgeous immediately added to my favorites.. #every scene from the houses the windows were always open... and its almost as if u can feel the heat and wind from outside.. #almost every scene is a sensory experience... from food heat scent light and sounds of water and the wind!! #THATS CINEMA #ive lots of thoughts abt the story but it's the perfect quiet movie if u want to feel grounded ... #the scent of green papaya #i wish i knew more abt architechture but houses like these from southeast asia is truly my style....

I liked the part with the cicadas.

A slow stroll through beautiful visuals, calm atmosphere, and the gentle sound of a đàn nguyệt.

Extremely light on plot and structure, but consistently enjoyable. The last act did fall apart a little when it became a sort of rushed, melodramatic montage, almost devoid of dialogue. I much prefered Man San Lu's great, natural performance as Mùi, to Tran Nu Yên-Khê's vaguely unsettling expressions and demure posturing.

Lots of satisfyingly presented cooking and mundane chores, bringing to mind a Ghibli movie. I particularly enjoyed the way ambient sounds like cicadas and rainfall were mixed, sometimes verging on overpowering the dialogue but in a way that felt intentional.

The use of a sound stage was obvious, but the sets looked fairly good and some of the camera movements allowed by missing rear walls worked quite well. I also liked the use of windows and doorways in framing shots, which complemented the semi-open feeling of traditional Vietnamese architecture.

For some reason the synopsis on SBS On Demand said this was about a girl who gets married and learns to play the piano, but only half of that is even implied to have happened, off-screen, in the final two minutes of the movie.

The Scent of Green Papaya is more accurately about the life of a girl in 50's and 60's Saigon and not a lot else. That it even takes place against the backdrop of the First Indochina War is only hinted at by the occasional sound of passing aircraft or curfew sirens.

A pleasant, serene movie. Very good.
