This is not a western painted ghost story

The first time I saw John Frankenheimer's film, and it was Cult Film in the 1960s, it really gave me an unexpected surprise! The most avant-garde photography among fans is probably the most avant-garde photography, and the series of distorted facial features from the opening scene are enough to scare off the jaw! As for the use of fisheye lenses and ultra-wide-angle lenses that appeared many times in the film, it was repeatedly imitated and learned by countless directors who continued to pursue...

Faust's sci-fi interpretation

Just like a realistic "Faust", the title means "Second Chance", "The Devil" lured the aging Arthur to sell his soul and gave him a second chance to experience the intellectual society with hedonism. Although Arthur had lived a rich and quiet middle-class life, his life had withered. In addition to the troubles, the "devil" appeared at the right time and reborn him through surgery. Arthur tries to perceive his struggle for freedom with his new identity "Tony". On the surface, it is easy and...

Second life, reborn, first life, golden summer

Released on November 14, 1966! Released on November 14, 1966! Jesus! genius! Omg! profound! The big photography director is still Chinese! What a super surprise! Harvest again and again! And there are thousands of good movies that have been logged in privately, and the work directed by John Frankheimer is the first time that I am scared to see it~ I can't finish watching all the good movies. The classics can be finished, and the masterpieces are repeated in this lifetime.

In 2015, his...

identity

High-end MLM, with escape as the driving force, dreams as the goal, and life as the cost. This movie is very interesting. It uses the shell of MLM and wraps the core of philosophical speculation. Arthur, a banker in his 50s and 60s, changed his body to a forty-year-old young body. With a gorgeous turn, he became Wilson, completing the transition of his body and identity. In fact, his mind, soul and memory are essentially the same. Nothing has changed, so this second "perfect life" is...

The master Huang Zongzhan, nominated for the best black and white photography, has been stealing the limelight in the field of vision he is best at: the twisted face title is from Sol Bass! However, at the beginning of the movie, who is the male protagonist who is anxious and depressed due to intensive visual bombardment before the empathy has been established? It is hard not to fall behind the criticism of formalism. It was later proved that the so-called mid-life crisis and life hesitation...

Huang Zongzhan's photography is so creative. I really liked the scene of stomping on grapes and carnival. I thought that I had completely escaped from the icy tech madness and came to the Dionysian body madness, but it was just a mirror image of the collective unconscious. Anxiety and need for identity can also be dig deeper and...

It really is an ideological movie in Zizek's mouth, and Arthur is too miserable. Because of a phone call from an old friend, he passively entered the MLM plastic surgery and life-changing den of Party A and B. There was no return, no choice, forced castration, and finally It's too scary to die. And the deleted paragraph of the Dionysian nature of the nude dancing in the mud of grapes is also a reflection of the castration of today's ideology (I didn't see it anyway, serious...

#NewHollywood# Friends who liked last year's [Escape from the Dead Town], you must not miss this film. It has nothing to do with race, [Second Life] describes the naked desire of human beings for immortality in the age of capital. The director of Live TV Show, John Frankheimer, gave the film a different meaning, bold subjective perspective and ingenious shots. From the angle, the distorted desires and repeated emotions of human beings in the film are vividly...

The soundtrack and screen control of the title are in place, resolutely terrifying, and completely kidnapped my goosebumps. Seeing cult films halfway through, half-accepting, half-rejecting grotesque films. The director said that the film went through the process from failure to cult classic in the process of being accepted by the audience. It is also a kind of...
