There is a close connection between the movement of the lens and the expression of the theme in "Wild Strawberry", which is especially prominent in the relative movement between characters or a specific scene. What is meant here is not the subjective feelings of a certain atmosphere rendered by the movement of the lens to the audience, but the orientation of the lens movement of the appearance or the speed of the movement of an abstract thing (the author’s expression of the character’s mental activity or the author’s perception of something Evaluation). For example, at the beginning of the film, the old man had a dream. In this scene depicting the dream, the camera movement has two characteristics, one of which is that when the old man walks without a definite destination, he keeps between the camera and the character. According to the horizontal and vertical relationship, that is, when a lens comes down, the walking direction of the old man and the movement direction of the lens always maintain a parallel or vertical relationship, which just forms a plane. Another feature, which is also the opposite of the first feature: when the old man sees something unusual, the movement of the lens becomes three-dimensional: the close-up of the old man’s facial expression in the close-up and the depiction of the surrounding environment of the character in the distant view are intertwined. ; The shaking coffin, street lamps and wheels colliding with each other, and three close-ups of the old man’s face create a three-dimensional space. Comparing these two sets of shots with each other, it can be found that compared to the old man walking aimlessly, the author focuses more on those "unusual things", so as to reflect the emptiness of life itself, and the so-called meaning of life is Things that are manifested by life as a carrier, not life itself. This echoes Isaac’s self-report in the opening title: “In our relationship with other people, we mainly discuss their character and behavior. This is why I am insulated from almost all so-called “interpersonal relationships”.” People His character and behavior are exactly the things that are manifested with life as a carrier. Life itself focuses on physiology, and the beginning of the film wants to express Isaac's character (stubborn, conceited), not his biological age. Regarding the biological age, in real life, people respect him because of his biological age advantage, and he has gradually become accustomed to it, and forcibly mixes the respect caused by his biological age with the respect caused by the character advantage. However, the author used dreams to exclude the biological age factor and focused on the exploration of personality. In the dream in the middle of the movie, the old man sensationalized in class and used his biological age as an excuse for making mistakes. This is a manifestation of Isaac’s arrogance and arrogance. The beginning of the movie echoed again. The author starts with this as a reminder to the audience that we cannot ignore the exploration of a person's inner world just because he is declining. This is the theme of the film.
