"As Deep as the Sea"

"Although the sea is deep and has a bottom, you and I... two hearts, one love, are deeper than the sea." "As Deep as the Sea" is a poetic and touching literary and artistic film. It not only has a touching story, but also has beautiful scenery and rigorous production. Gülen, who became popular in the film industry in the mid-1950s, used singing and dancing to attract audiences. He sang and danced in every film. This film is the only one in which she neither sings nor dances. She relies purely on her dedicated acting skills to play a wife and mother who devotes herself to the love of her life without regrets. The result is remarkable. The range of emotions she wanted to express in the film was very wide, but she cleverly combined her open-minded silent film acting style with a natural and life-like performance method to interpret the role, and the effect was seamless. Director Yi Wen also has a particularly outstanding performance: the entire film was shot in real locations, the rhythm is relaxed and smooth, and the emotional description is meticulous. It avoids the problem of sensationalism, but it does not weaken the touching effect of the story in the slightest. It makes people think about it endlessly after watching it. It can be called a masterpiece in his creative career.
