Mank Comments

It is not a coincidence that David Fincher chose to make "Mank" at this time. Mankiewicz’s protection of the Jews and support for the Democratic governor candidate are actually inseparable from contemporary American politics. "Reflecting "Citizen Kane" in form and content, it is better to say that the Trump era and the rising right-wing world after the Great Depression and the United States with a shrinking middle class are similar in the same way. Hollywood is a small society with distinct...

I'm afraid there will be more homework to watch this film than last year's "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood". Compared to the current words, the intermingling of Hollywood and politics in the golden age is indeed a very interesting subject, and the original "Citizen Kane" itself also has a strong political significance (even the personal favorite of Big D). But now that the original work has completed an allegory of Hirst and politics, the behind-the-scenes story of the filming is still focused...

To reproduce the birth of "Citizen Kane" is also full of the shadow of Citizen Kane. Since the glory belongs to Mankay, and Mankay is a drunkard, then it reflects the real Hearst, the light and shadow are blurred into a dream-like montage, nothing The preface but numbered and recorded fragments, the mumbling and impromptu thinking leaping all point to the connection between life and work, and the resurrection of Finch-Black-and-white film-the great Hollywood era has finally come...

For the first time, I saw Finch focus the story on power politics. From a biography in the golden age, he alluded to the overwhelming fake news of this year’s election, reflecting the struggle between the filmmakers’ interests and freedom, and they liked the plot but treated them separately. Still not as smooth as social networks. The details of the old processing on the visual and sound effects are also very interesting, especially when Mank is drunk, the degree of blur is more obvious. It is...

From the set to the performance are very old-school, coupled with the deliberately old texture, "Manke" can be embedded in the time and space of "Citizen Kane" in a fake and real way. It tells not only the process of the birth of this classic in written form, but also the ruthlessness of Hollywood studio politics, the cost of extracting art from life, and the struggle between editors and directors. Because it is the script of Finch’s father, it may be the least David Finch’s film, but it is...

It's embarrassing. Looking at Manke is like looking at the creed. The eyes are scorched and the ears are exploded. I don't understand from beginning to end, who is he? Who is he? What is their relationship? Where is the acting now? Why is this movie so long? Woke up and went to sleep, and watched a funny look. For the best films of various directors in the critics, I have no face to participate in the evaluation of the story. I can only mutter unwillingly, let the beautiful and low-key actors...

The montage in the middle is amazing! Although Flashback's disorderly interspersion destroys the coherence of the story, it also adds a bit of unpredictable fun. But no matter how much the film says, whether it’s the political environment in Hollywood, or the creative path of "Kane", it’s still Mank. Forgive me for being superficial, I still like the last sentence: "It's the power of the movie. "It's like the voice of everyone walking along the...

I watched it in the cinema, and it's worth watching it after going online or pulling the film with "Citizen Kane". It is recommended that Netflix directly let David Fincher and Ellen Sorkin shoot on Social Network 2. This year, for these two films, "Chicago 7" has weaker scenes and scene transitions, and "Mank" is a breath away from the script. …… As a film that explores the relationship between film and politics, and at the same time demonstrates Hollywood’s function of exporting mainstream...
