1971's color Neo Noir. Photographed by photographer Gordon Willis, known as Prince of Darkness, he is very skilled in light, shadow and color. Jane Fonda also won the Oscar for this film and became a respected actor. An interesting line in the film is Bree and the psychiatrist, who support Bree's character very full and round, but as Neo Noir, it is a little disappointing to basically give up the suspenseful structure about halfway through the film. The combination of Call Girl + Private Investi

Possibly the most classic noir crime movie led by a potential victim. Jane Fonda won the Oscar because of her active leadership in sexuality, and because of her self-disclosure in front of a psychiatrist, all of which were accomplished by her lines. Although her crying in front of the murderer at the end is moving, the part of reading white is the most unique part of this character, very...

The scene of pulling the corner of the clothes thinks of Nagato Yuki (? The temperament of "The Brooklyn Mystery" is a bit similar to it at the micro level, telling the alien and lonely heart in a big city trying to find one's own world in it, but it rises to a higher level. It's not the same at the rich/macro level. The details are vivid, the heroine and other supporting characters are brilliant, and the protagonist and villain are not...

After watching "Liuxiang Fangcao" again, you will still be gradually moved by Jane Fonda. The performance in the film is a process of gradually peeling off the characters. A minute's warmth next to the fruit stand will not be so touching, and the crying scene at the end is also very powerful. Film noir of this period was more closed, more psychedelic, and more...

3.5. The suspenseful atmosphere is very full, and the dark night photography and soundtrack have helped a lot, which is a bit Hitchcock-like. The script is actually a bit weak, the villain has long been revealed, and there are no redundant clues to peel off, so I prefer to see it as a romance film. The prostitute fell in love with the private detective, and had a feeling that she had never had before, and the two were so good together. Jane Fonda has gone from charming to weak, and with...

3.5 stars. Gordon Willis’s photography is too strong. It is not so much a strong film style as a strong photography style. Fonda’s explosive performance is well balanced by Sutherland’s restrained and suppressed performance. It's a very interesting pair. Focusing on the dark side of New York, a large and bizarre city, at the same time reflects the oppression and suffocation that such a city itself brings to people. The city has created freaks, and the city has also accommodated...

For the first time (?) the dark prince embraced the shadow environment. The photography is superb, and it has really reached the realm of image narration through "invisible". Relatively speaking, the script and the actors have no surprises. Of course, in the same year, there were many excellent photographers who had poor fate. Hanamura, A Clockwork Orange, and this film were not even nominated. The last film, the French drug network, was mentioned in the photography award but lost to the roof....

The suspense noir films in the 70s, the chronological texture of New York as a degenerate city under the economic crisis (Photo by Gordon Willis), the soundtrack is very good ("Leaving The City"), the saxophone and the midnight neon are associated with "Taxi" "Driver", the ambient sound effects are also excellent to highlight the suspenseful atmosphere ("The Tape"). The prostitute played by Jane Fonda resists her nihilism with the sense of accomplishment of playing with her clients, and...
