    In the movie, there are some western movies, the style of sword and halberd movies, and American road movies are laid out, and the rest is the round battle in urban legends~ and the use of sub-shots, the creation of suspenseful atmosphere and the composition of the picture. To be sure, it is all about the extraordinary talent of a genre film...

    I was obsessed with this film. In my early years, my uncle worked as a projectionist in my hometown movie theater. When I was five or six years old, I watched this road film with almost no dialogue. It only had a car chase, but it always captured the audience's emotions. It was tense, exciting, and very expressive on camera. It was many years before I learned that the film was called Duel. It was the debut feature of a director who later became one of Hollywood's most influential figures. His...

    it's not just a big-ass truck murdering story; rather, it's a monstrous land-crusing 'shark' story disguised under road rage plot, which heralds what Mr. Spielberg would have accomplished next. A 70+ minute film made in 16 days TV movie, brilliant, is his debut, debut is the peak. I learned about this film during an introduction to exploring Hitchcock's influence on later generations. Well, many techniques were borrowed, including Psycho's classic background sound, which was changed and used. I...

    Completely relying on editing and pre-screening, a film made with solid film technology. But I don't like it at all. Even after knowing the background of President Kennedy's...

    A Stephen King-style thriller story meets Spielberg, who is not afraid of tigers. There are very few lines, the story is minimal, experimental style, intense and exciting, and the duration is just right. I always feel that the first film mad max emulates is this film, of course , There are also some awkward places, such as the design of the hero's inner monologue, which is really...

    Road rage driver bullying for no reason, straw dog fights back

    Spielberg's directorial debut, a suspense thriller road film with a simple plot.

    Reminiscent of straw dogs, there are many stories in European and American movies where such cowardly protagonists were bullied for no reason and finally rose up to resist.

    The simpler the movie, the easier it is to...

    Spielberg's early works, I have never heard of it before, nor have I seen relevant introductions, but when I saw the high score, I didn't hesitate to down it. The fact is that it didn't disappoint me. At first, I tried to watch it on the new wide-screen TV I bought at home, because I considered...
