1996年威尼斯电影节Luigi De Laurentiis奖1997年西雅图国际电影节新导演奖介绍：紫宅这部貌似简单而带有记录风格的影片描绘出巴勒斯坦爱国电影人Elia Suleiman的个人寻根之旅。影片分成两部分。第一部分记录下拿撒勒古城中荒谬而寂静的阿拉伯地区。第二部分则用一种相对政治化的眼光观察这个城市，紫宅而Elia Suleiman在这部分扮演较为积极的角色。他来到自己的出生地找寻灵感，但他所看到的却是阿拉伯人民深陷在文化身份危机中的一幅幅凄惨的画面。最为显著的一个例子：一位阿拉伯少女想要在自己的城镇里获得比传统妇女更独立的地位，然而却因为居住在犹太区的居民怀有偏见而无法实现。
回复 :Carla è incinta e nuda, imitando le pose che sua madre assumeva quando era incinta di Carla. La luce del sole filtra dalle finestre. Si vedono immagini in Super-8 di madri e padri, nonne e nonni, che sorridono, cuciono, recitano poesie. Poi, una giovane ragazza viaggia dagli anni Sessanta agli anni Ottanta, fino a oggi, attraversando le soglie della femminilità e della storia, fino all’incontro con Carla in riva al mare azzurro della Catalogna e con Manel, il figlio di Carla appena nato.

回复 :It is a great film by a great director.Kira Muratova has never been given her due in the Soviet and post-Soviet Russia.In the "Long Good Bye" she depicts a seemingly banal story of a jealous and possessive mother (brilliantly acted by Zinaida Sharko) and her poor aloof and lonely son (the only cinematic role by the talented O. Vladimirsky). The story - which is nothing extraordinary in itself - grows into the wonderful and frightening analysis of alienation between genders and generations on the background of the even more frighteningly bleak and dehumanized Soviet reality.Kira Muratova shows the tiny details of everyday Soviet life,and, again , banal as they are ,they are a hair-raising horror.The dialogue is deliberately laconic and void of any sense, showing the ever-growing people's inability to communicate and understand each other.The sound track ( by another under-estimated talent, Oleg Karavaichuk)adds to the atmosphere of hopeless and meaningless existence.Of course,Sasha (the name of the protagonist),will leave his despotic ( but loving!) mother sooner or later, but where for?
