This is a comedy - this is me after watching the documentary "Fahrenheit 911" The most intuitive feeling of 911.
This documentary tells the story of how an American government deceived the American people, pointed out the absolute role that the US government's post-9/11 oil greed played in the frantic war on terror, and analyzed the relationship between the Bush family and the bin Laden family. intertwined interests.
Why is this movie comedy? The fact is that the film uses a ubiquitous method of parallelism to complete the record, and a large number of two or more groups with different interests are displayed in parallel, such as: President Bush is playing golf leisurely with him in an elementary school. During the inspection, the "sluggish" expression when he learned about the 9/11 incident, plus the slightly ironic question in the voiceover. Another example is the roar of laughter caused by Bush's witty tone in his congressional speech, the bloody scenes of the Iraq War and the expressions of fear among civilians.
This slightly expressionist film technique was fully utilized by director Michael Moore. Therefore, in addition to strongly condemning terrorism and the war of aggression, we have more irony about the American superstructure burlesque, and it happens that the protagonists are none other than the US Congress and the President himself. At the end of the film, when the director himself asked the congressmen before Congress if they would like to send their children to the Iraqi battlefield, he was accompanied by a soldier who had returned from the Iraq war. Just looking at the expressions of the congressmen was funny enough.
When expressing the 9/11 incident itself, the director did not directly use the plane crashing into the building to re-stimulate the audience's emotions. Instead, he used the dubbed black picture to show the situation at that time, focusing more on the different situations of ordinary people when they faced the disaster. The different expression allows the audience to experience the catastrophic consequences of the incident in a silent atmosphere.
In this film, the director "returns the same way to the other person", constantly using transition shots to switch and compare, and even compare their different arguments before and after, which makes the hypocritical and contradictory faces of the politicians fully revealed. , is also constantly stirring up the emotions of the audience. From this point of view, although it is slightly subjective, it has a strong sense of evidence and is true and reliable.
Throughout the whole film, the director used a real documentary technique, but in a comedy atmosphere, completed the criticism of today's American government.
