Lonely neon, good time

The dreamlike images and music of "Good Times" seem to infuse us with hallucinogens, making us dance, intoxicated and crazy, and make us cheer and praise like a mountainous version, although in the end it is not there. Cannes in exchange for any awards, but this film and the talent of the Savedi brothers, we must not ignore their existence today. A few years ago, "God Knows" can be understood more as a purely personal artistic expression of the Savedi brothers, and the film is more private or more selfish for them. By the time "Good Times", the brothers had broken their relative selves and added more complex elements and expressions. From "Good Times", we can see the nihility of Gaspar Nou style, the psychedelic style of Danny Boyle, the mystery of the Quis brothers, and the accidental necessity in the Coen brothers' films. But if the Saferdi brothers are just a mix and mash of these director styles, then we will definitely not see the current film today, and it may be a third-rate and four-different film. Their excellence is that they have made a certain variation of each style for their own use, and they have created a unique "Saverdi Beat". At the beginning of the film, the close-up shots of Ben Saverdi playing the role of his brother Nick with cognitive impairment lasted for more than four minutes. The long close-up shots alone do not explain their difference, because Carl is far away. Theodore Dreyer's "The Passion of Joan of Arc", the most recent one is "Son of Sol", which won the Oscar for best foreign film by Laszlo Jérès, the unique feature of Saferdi It used the camera’s close-up and aggressive lens to capture Nick’s ambiguous pronunciation, sluggish eyes, and falling tears, which forced us to give us such a tragic character when we were unprepared. , And then we were like marionette puppets at their mercy. Only after the end of the film did we think of the chin that fell in shock. There are also two overhead shots of sparse traffic on the street. The effect is like a tilt-shift photography. The lonely soul is like this lonely night and street. The New York under the lens of the Savedy Brothers is lonely and empty instead of Woody Allen. Or Noah Baumbach's trivial and sarcasm, their New York is a different side of the prism, glamorous and unbearable as charming. A dramatic and tense scene in the amusement park with flashing neon lights makes it even more weird and lonely in the cold late night of New York. That bruised guy, he doesn’t care if anyone listens, he always talks to himself, this character is like a mixture of Laurie and Bernini in Jim Jamush’s "Outlaw" Body, showing a state of restless loneliness. The scream of falling from the balcony when he tried to escape, the director Instead of focusing the camera on his horror after landing, as in the conventional movie, it gave Connie the pale face and sharp eyes when Connie looked back. Judging from the film’s narrative, it is essentially the core of the genre. The serial design has been performed brilliantly in the early and mid-term films of the Coen brothers. Safferdy did not have any innovations on this level, but the Safferdy brothers Combining the fatefulness of the Coen Brothers' films with Jim Jamush's loneliness and speeding up the rhythm, this has become Safdie's own characteristic. If Robert Pattinson will definitely win the actor's laurel at the Oscars next year, it may be too early, but he definitely contributed his best performance from the film, starting with "Remember Me" in 2010 , He has gradually faded from the idol aura brought to him by "Twilight", but the change is not very obvious. With the favor of David Cronenberg, he showed his acting plasticity in "Metropolis". Although some people still questioned his stiff expression, at least let us see another side of him. Then in 2014, "Stars" The refreshing performance in the picture shows that he no longer needs the "Twilight" bodyguard at all. This performance can be compared to Vincent Gallo, with the same clear and hostile eyes, thin facial contours, pale complexion, and unique and melancholic temperament. It seems that they were born for certain roles, but Pattinson still has a touch of warmth in the world, which is different from Gallo's deep bones, so Pattinson is more suitable for Connie's role than Gallo. Pattinson’s encounter with the Savedy brothers should have achieved each other. Whether Connie’s role will be as good as Pattinson or better than him is still unknown, but at least from the perspective of the film for now, Unexpectedly, there will be other people who might perform better than him. Finally, I will mention the application of the most characteristic of Safodi’s electronic music. I personally think this is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it is a propellant for emotions and plots. It makes our hearts and emotions like the characters in the play. Keep running and flip together. But on the other hand, it also has the suspicion of overwhelming the audience, giving the film a super-long MV feel. Of course, fortunately, the director is very clever to know when to stop, and not to reduce the film to such a status. I don’t know how wonderful the Savedy brothers who handed over such an excellent film will surprise us in the next one, or will be assimilated by the mainstream and lose their qualities, I hope it’s not the latter case. The film has been performed brilliantly, and Safdy did not have any innovation on this level, but the Safdy brothers organically blended the fatefulness of the Coen brothers' film with the loneliness of Jim Jamush and accelerated the rhythm. , This has turned out to be Safferdi’s own characteristics.
