Character Evaluation
Brian Russell De Palma's work is not a masterpiece, but there are many works sought after by fans. From "Sisters" to a prominence, to "Carrie" to establish the status of the arena. His films are like a tease to movie fans, which are full of parody and tribute, but also have a very personal style. The works often have a perverse and strange beauty, and never avoid blood and violence .
Brian DePalma may be the most involved film type among all Hollywood directors. He is constantly changing styles and themes, including comedy, horror, gangster, gangster, action, and science fiction films to experiment and explore. It seems that the type of movie itself is his research object, and he especially likes to imitate and modify those classics. His proficient manipulation of genre films makes it easier to obtain affinity with entertainment films. He is good at combining visual expression with a highly controlled sense of horror, showing moral ambiguity and seductive dark and depraved sentiment in absurd stories, and his non-avoidance and even enthusiasm for disgusting scenes constantly challenge the audience. Accept the limit .
