If you are stirring the base, please bring a small chicken

I don't like lighthouses very much. The director deliberately used 4:3 black and white image quality and almost no dialogue, and after a while, he also adjusted the speed to 1.5 times the speed, the standard of 16 frames per second when the film was born. I still couldn't stand it, and I used a lot of green-back keying to endure it, but the grammar was still modern editing, and the language of the montage school was deliberately added. For example, in a voyeur, the first shot is A repairing the roof outside, the second shot A subjectively sees B on the bed in the room, and the third shot A is a close-up of his eyes. According to Eisenstein's theory, the next shot should have a reaction action to complete this set of psychological montages. As a result, the fourth scene changed, and the next scene began. Obviously modern editing ideas, but using the lens of the montage school. Under this kind of chaotic editing, the story goes through the stream of consciousness again, trying to learn the modern elaboration that last year in Marionbad and that the two were reluctant to stir up the foundation in a closed space for a long time. It can't be said that the director is pretending, because the pretending is at least half a bucket of water. This TM even fails the still life montage of the freshman of the film school, and he dares to show it. He didn't even have a chicken, and he ran out to stir up the base.

    Not quite as expected, but unexpectedly got a near-spiritual experience. Different from the restrained and restrained temperament of "The Witch", the second half is a violent impact on the mind like a storm hits the shore; but in some aspects, it is a continuation of "The Witch" or even further, and is still good at learning from the natural environment. Distill a terrifying audio-visual atmosphere and gradually push the characters to destruction. Seagulls circling, fog horns incessantly, and phantoms come in. What's on top of the lighthouse? But a ray of light instinctively sought by desperate creatures in the dark.

    An exemplary use of unknowable narrative, with Poe's darkness and grimness, and Lovecraft's confusion and chaos. The rivalry between the two is extremely exciting and full of dramatic tension. Dafoe's acting skills become more vigorous as he ages, and Pattinson's transformation has been very successful. The sound effects are well used, and I believe the cinema experience is better. The one-to-one scale narrows the viewer's and narrative's horizons. The lighthouse is like an upright phallus pointing to the sky, and it is also an infinite extension of human curiosity. The mutual restriction of the power relationship between the two protagonists, the fusion and overlap of various mythological images. Winter vacation second brush.

The Lighthouse quotes

  • Ephraim Winslow: If I had a steak... I'd fuck it.

  • Ephraim Winslow: You think yer so damned high and mighty cause yer a goddamned lighthouse keeper? Well, you ain't a captain of no ship and you never was, you ain't no general, no copper, you ain't the president, and you ain't my father -- and I'm sick of you actin' like you is! I'm sick of your laugh, your snoring, and your goddamned farts. Your damned goddamned farts. Goddamn yer farts! You smell like piss, you smell like jism, like rotten dick, like curdled foreskin, like hot onions fucked a farmyard shit-house. And I'm sick of yer smell. I'm sick of it! I'm sick of it, you goddamned drunk. You goddamned, no-account, drunken, son-of-a-bitch-bastard liar! That's what you are, you're a goddamned drunken horse-shitting -- short -- shit liar. A liar!

    Thomas Wake: Y'have a way with words, Tommy.
