robbery

"In ancient mythology, the captivity is active, he is the main party of adultery; in modern mythology, the situation is just the opposite. The robber seems to want nothing and does nothing, he is static, and the robbed guest is just the opposite. The real master of the robbery." "The Servant" is such a story about conquest, robbery and captivity. The first half of "The Servant" is safe and meticulous, and everything is explained clearly. For example, when the master and servant first met,...

"The Servant" of "Director's Talk"

The success of "The Servant" firstly benefited from the excellent script of the Nobel Prize winner Harold Pinter. The film unfolds in a closed space, namely Tony's house, and tells the process of reversing the positions between the master Tony and the servant Barrett. The complicated character and faint interpersonal relationship make the film that downplays the plot "see the true work in the smallest details", which is full of tension everywhere. The apparent master in the...

Dramatic and cinematic

Drama and cinema are regarded as incompatible by many modern film art masters and modern film critics. "The Servant" is a strong counter-evidence. The collaboration between the theater master Pinter and the film master Rossi also gives it a high degree of drama and cinematic quality, both of which are impeccable regardless of whether it is viewed separately or comprehensively. The two have one thing in common, which is the rejection of "big words". With trivial, boring, meaningless lines and...

The audience snickered constantly. It was too easy to be regarded as a British speciality rot film. When I re-watched it, I only felt that it was rotten. Back then, Rossi Cliffs was under pressure and made a film that seemed obscure and tortuous on the surface, but it was actually quite rotten at the time. Straightforward and bold rubbing the ball, this is what I deeply realized after watching it on the big screen now, so obvious same-sex meaning, it is not an exaggeration to add a same-sex...

Super beautiful and awesome~~~ The black and white picture is so exquisite and the contrast between light and dark is sharp. The language of the lens is as skilled and natural as running clouds and flowing...

The whole film is filled with an explosive sudden turn of charm. For example, the love scene between the servants witnessed by the master after returning home early should have put the audience in an extremely embarrassing situation, but at this critical moment, Rossi unexpectedly reversed the master-servant and strong Weak ties, and then Barrett's humble begging in the bar and the coercion of re-entering Tony's house made this series of seemingly broken sudden turns indeed make the whole...

Photography's control of space and mirror images filled the house with all kinds of tension. The servant seized the master's opportunity from the first sight, and the uncontrolled master-servant relationship later started from this. In the second half of the story, I probably don't know how to end it, and it's a bit unsatisfactory to just go straight to the...

8.5/10. ①The male protagonist, the male protagonist B, B's fiancée, and the male protagonist's fiancée have a complicated four-cornered love, in which the male protagonist gradually turns against the guest in front of the weak master B (there seems to be some homosexual ambiguous meaning) is the main line. ②Strongly expressive high-level photography (lighting/composition); a lot of extremely high-level long-lens movement/scheduling that enhances the sense of immersion/realism/elegance. ③ A...
