Still the whole story happens in one scene, pan and pan. I watched Hitchcock's third film, and it was the first time I saw a very conflicted dual male protagonist and a criminal who was cowardly and easily flustered. This kind of criminal who was no longer calm and calm made me feel fresh and novel. It was also the first time that I saw a direct collision and discussion of certain values ​​and ethics in Hitchcock's works, and I was able to read the thoughts Hitchcock wanted to express. Plus, with regards to the gay couple's relationship, Brandon is dangerous and sublime to Philip, there's a lot about him that Philip doesn't have, this attraction that he calls "deadly" Philip and let him stay by his side, but he still can't get over his normal (in fact, not bad) ethics like ordinary people, which keeps him from being like Brandon, who is also the One of the reasons why the murder came to light. As for Brandon, he's good looking, but he just enjoys being on the edge of danger, though, like the hat and initial rope mistakes, he doesn't have the kind of smarts he says he has in dealing with inferior people. of detached superior human abilities. He's just a comical incarnation, perhaps Hitchcock's embodiment of this twisted idea. In addition, the characters of the two male protagonists in this film are very good! And Rupert changed the naughty humor in the rear window to this humorous seriousness, and the sound changed so much.

    Staged and one-shot are inherently compatible with each other, Hitchcock is just trying to return to the essence, taking another big step towards what he calls "suspense" through coherent performances, scenes and character emotions. While some of the splicing techniques may seem stale or even clumsy now, you can imagine how shocking they were at the time. The lines and the psychology are inside and outside each other, subtle and true. John Doyle is so arrogant

    From 19:30 to 21:15, in the "Only One Shot" film, Xi Fatt successfully conducted a movie shot experiment through the close-up of small objects and the lens switching of the same thing. Thank you. The clouds made of glass wool, the neon at the end, the exterior scenes of New York and the psychological warfare inside, great. To have a party next to the coffin, you have to have a high psychological quality to bear it. Grant, Bergman and Stewart are wonderfully framed together.
