a dream shattered

Kubrick's "The Killer" is very similar to "The Night Is Still", they are both films of the 1950s, and the latter is six years earlier than the former.

A group of people planned a big robbery. In addition to showing the robbery itself, it also explained the life background of each robber, their family, lovers, or friends, which made them appear more flesh and blood, and at the same time, let their adventures get audiences More worries. Despite their different backgrounds and...

Plagiarism is progress or incompetence

After watching it, I didn't feel that there was anything remarkable, in terms of ideas or stories, but after reading the film review, I realized that this is a purely artistic innovation about the film, and it has nothing to do with everything else. The narration, multiplayer, Quentin later, etc. are better, but Kubrick is always the leader, like a small experiment but handled pretty well.

But every object, art, etc. is not created out of thin air, after absorbing a lot of...

[Last Film I Watched] The Killing (1956) 8.2/10

Made at the age of 28, Kubrick's third feature, is indubitably, his very first masterpiece. THE KILLING is a taut heist movie told in a refreshing non-linear narrative, souped up with a crispy pace and pristine economy and pulsating along with its solemn but efficacious incidental music.

The ringleader is Johnny Clay (Hayden), an old lag fresh out of the jug, schemes a 2-million heist in the racetrack as his last hurrah before getting married with his sweetheart Fay...

This plot is crazy

The 1956 noir film, the plot is quite attractive, the story is well arranged, it is still the American movie routine, a group of people get together to do some damage, they all have their own responsibilities and skills, the movie is a plan to rob a horse race, the plan is very All in all, it finally succeeded. But at the end of the shootout, the protagonist was left. In the end, his $2 million was blown away by the wind at the airport. In the end, the male protagonist did not choose to escape...

28-year-old Kushen has opened the eyes of God

This work has been criticized by most people as a classic noir genre. The originator of multi-line narrative is probably the innovation on the level of film technique and form, completely ignoring the connotation of the work. Ignoring the following factors: "precise collective cooperation", "puzzle", "everyone just does their duty", "does the cashier love or obsess over his wife?", "reasonable and perceptual doubts", "why in the end? Is it a dog?", "What is the difference between humans and...

In fact, noir films like this type of multi-line interwoven group crime have long been played by contemporary directors to the extreme. However, Kubrick's film is not outdated today. It can be said that there are many directors after that. Or at least influenced by him. The narration in a slow and low voice narrates the antecedents and causes of the consequences, the plot development of each line is orderly and progressive, the sharp sound effects of the atmosphere are always affecting people's...

After all, this is his feature film debut, and it feels like Kubrick is still groping for his style. Like "Barry Lyndon", there are a lot of narration narratives, but "Barry Lyndon" is told from a prophetic perspective with a judgmental attitude, and the narration of this one is very redundant except for the time line function, but this also makes this book. The film is easier to understand than some later non-linear narrative films, and in my opinion, the audience's acceptance is different in...

What Guy Ritchin and Ninghao play is something that Master Renku played more than 50 years ago. The rest is not worse than what they played. Not even a minute feels...

Exquisite. A film that has been imitated by many people both in terms of subject matter and structure. People die because of wealth, which is thrilling. Hayden's magical skills have already begun to emerge, and they have been brought to the extreme in Dr....
