    I always feel reluctant in some places, but movies are better than novels. It is better to focus the camera on the book and make those books that represent civilization stand out, than to make sense. In addition, Truffaut added two female roles to make the girl have a beginning and an end, and also gave his wife some sympathy, but at the same time, it also weakened the actor's power on the other hand. In fact, the most important thing in the original work is just to sell a...

    From the burning of witches and other dissidents in Christianity to the burning of Copernicus in the Inquisition, to 1984, including the Fahrenheit 451, all are the authorities’ fear of opinion, knowledge, freedom, and reason. Of course, things have two sides, but The monopoly of resources is a dangerous undercurrent, a warning that pushes the monopolist itself into the abyss. From the perspective of the movie itself, like Orwell’s novel, it follows the narrative of the fortress’s internal...

    Truffaut's first color film, dystopian science fiction. 1. The grand narrative of bitterness and enmity has turned into an elegant and fresh Xiaojiabiyu, which is not too far from Godard [Alpha City]. 2. The fast push montage of the scene of the burning of the book and the multiple monochrome filters at the beginning of the movie is great. 3. The close-up time for Dali's picture album is too long, so I basically flipped through it. 4. All thinkers and philosophers say the same thing, only I am...

    Although many people don’t think highly of this film, and Truffau thinks so, but I think it’s a bit of futuristic science fiction in 1966. It’s still...

    Combining 1984 and the noisy and lonely dystopia, Borges once described a mother who burned her daughter's books and said: "We are ordinary people, we don't need books." A group that refuses to think and imagine It is undoubtedly mediocre and pathetic, and a regime that refuses to let the people think is bound to be totalitarian and authoritarian. The unification of ideology requires the harmony of thoughts, the sameness and discipline from top to bottom, and the mechanization of...

    The despair, darkness, and depression of the original work are all weakened here, presenting a weird city and romantic bookman community, especially the latter is almost presented in the form of a channel group in the original work, and the mysterious atmosphere of religion is here. Being transformed into a spiritual ideal country, the scene where people in different languages ​​are reciting books in different languages ​​in the snow is really like a morning reading, full of hope. (In fact,...

    Aliens, rebellion, escape, scholars. 1. Keep them busy and make them happy. That’s the problem. 2. Make them desire to live in another impossible way. 3. You just live to live. Waste of life 4. They carry the most precious secrets in the...

    Most of the books burned in the film are Truffaut's favorites...I also burned the cover of the book written by Ben Truffaut, which is exhausting. Grandfather and Truffau both screwed up and hated each other. They didn't say a word in the last two weeks of filming... Grandfather also deliberately got a haircut and made bugs... Belmondo was considered for this film. However, due to unfamiliar audiences from English-speaking countries, he was not able to...

    It is impossible to imagine how boring and barren the world of unified thinking is without books, and how empty and lonely a human being without spiritual food will be. At the end, people’s recitation and inheritance of books is encouraging. It is the books themselves that can be destroyed, and they can be better remembered in their minds. In fact, didn't the old fire chief who was burned know everything about every book? Doesn't it mean that he has read it all? The story is similar to...

    Books and morbidity

    Since I haven’t seen the original work, although the director of the movie version is Truffau, one of the famous New Wave 3 giants, it is still very likely to have misunderstandings in translation, "the language speaks a lie", let alone a second change. Translated into a movie? What I care about is...

    Regret

    Ah, love, may we
    be sincere to each other! Because although the world is
    unfolding in front of us like a dream country,
    so colorful, beautiful and fresh, in
    fact there is no joy, no love and light,
    no certainty, no peace, no relief for pain;
    we are like living in a wilderness shrouded in darkness....

Fahrenheit 451 quotes

  • Clarisse: Is it true that a long time ago, firemen used to put out fires and not burn books?

    Guy Montag: Your uncle is right, you are light in the head, put out fires? Houses have always been fireproof.

    Clarisse: Ours isn't...

    Guy Montag: Well, it should be condemned, destroyed, and you'll have to move to one that is.

  • Clarisse: You don't like books, then.

    Guy Montag: Do you like the rain?

    Clarisse: Yes, I adore it.
