      Seriously overrated first sight beauty

      The first time I watched it, this movie was really amazing, light and humorous and wonderfully integrated into the serious political reflections of the Civil War, the bright photography tones, the unforgettable soundtrack, the superb acting (especially the bad guys), all made People beat the case. But I have a habit of turning out good films and revisiting them after a while. Et, Pulp Fiction, Shawshank, Farewell My Concubine, these classics that I have replayed over and over again, every...

      Smile in the grave

      As long as it is a movie review, there will be spoilers~ Stars and short ones such as "good" and "bad" are also counted. . .

      An example of discussing the concept of "time dilation" in a technical post I brushed is linked to this movie. I haven't seen Westerns systematically, and I don't want to try to be any technical stream. The version I came down to read is 179 minutes. According to the post The final duel scene was condensed and cut from five minutes to...

      Someone said that Tuco is cute?

      If it weren't for the carriage just coming, Tuco shot the good guy earlier, but the good guy didn't kill Tuco, and Tuco wanted to kill him after the payment was over. Wouldn't that be cute? Although the movie is good, I feel uncomfortable with this kind of naive thinking. In reality, someone like the protagonist is a good person who will surely die. In the end, Tuco was also played. After watching the movie, I wondered if Tuco would still hold a grudge, by the way. Swallow...

      Stylized audio-visual analysis

      The audio-visual design of "The Good and the Bad" is very characteristic of the director. Whether it is the choice of composition and scenery, music, sound effects and editing methods are very talented.

      The style of the subtitles at the beginning of "The Good and the Bad" establishes the personal style of the film. The red background picture animation with unique music and the design of subtitles appearing with the sound of gunfire directly gives a...

      man with knives and man with guns

      Facts have proved that history always has certain coincidences and similarities. I was watching the 1966 movie The Bad and the Bad, and some of the western showdowns in it reminded me of the same material, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, 2018. The similarity between the two films is that both tell the story of someone with a bit of skill who is killed by a challenger in a duel. There are no more than a few depictions of marvelous marksmanship and arrogance. Yet I cannot help...

    Evaluation action

    Sergio Leone established a rule that he followed throughout "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly." The rule is: visibility is limited by the boundaries of the screen. The important scenes in the film cannot be seen by the camera, nor can the characters be seen. This gives Leone the freedom to surprise the audience with the unexplainable appearance of the actual geographic situation during the shooting. For example, there is a scene where...
