In my opinion, Luis Bunuel is a rather peculiar director, especially his way of expression. Surrealist expressions are the most fascinating style, especially the kind of unimaginable and bizarre design that always surprises people. However, in Buñuel’s films, his surreal expression does not seem to be used to explain the meaning of the character’s behavior or the scene, but instead uses the signifier and signifier in the literature to fill its content. In the 1920s and 1930s, the European avant-garde movement was very enthusiastic, and surrealism as one of the genres will naturally be carried forward. Luis Bunuel is actually an anarchist, and this is evident in his movie "An Andalu Dog". It is precisely because of this film that Buñuel's status as the father of "surrealism" was established.
Many directors in Spain have a very significant feature, that is, they like to label themselves sparingly, which not only summarizes their own film style, but also allows more audiences to have a deeper understanding of the director's creative philosophy and aesthetic concepts based on the style of the film. . Bunuel’s unique film style has had a profound impact on future Spanish films and directors. Many directors were more or less influenced by Bunuel when they established their own styles. For example, Carlos Shaola, Almodovar and so on, the works of these directors are marked with very distinctive national symbols.
If you want to say that the film that best reflects the style of Buñuel, then "Day Beauty" is definitely not the best choice. The reason why "Day Beauty" is written here is because this movie is the most approachable of all his films. Of a movie. And it is precisely because of this film that Bunuel won the Golden Lion Award at the 32nd Venice Film Festival, which can be described as a fame and fortune. The content of this movie was also quite controversial at the time. In the 1960s, this movie can be said to completely break through the scale of previous movies, showing women's uncontrollable physical desires. Buñuel uses virtual reality. The method of combination shows the contradiction between the soul and the flesh, and puts many taboo topics on the table, allowing the audience to experience an unusual and interesting female psychological world.
I like this movie because of its elegance and non-judgmental nature. The pathological beauty portrayed by Catherine Deneuve is very impressive. The middle-class woman with dual personality she plays can be said to be vivid, and she herself is noble and cold-eyed. Temperament. I like this beautiful and calm woman, like her sexy back curve, like her straight and white legs, like her bun, like her drooping eyes, these little details are full of eroticism , Let people unconsciously enter the world of desire constructed by a woman.
There is an old Chinese saying that is very interesting, "Wife is worse than concubine, and concubine is worse than stealing, and stealing is worse than stealing." It seems that this sentence is not only suitable for men, but also for women. At least it is suitable for "White Beauty Deneuve in ". Although the subject matter of "Day Beauty" is sensitive, it has no judgmental nature at all. This film is only about sexual repression, about the soul and the flesh, and Buñuel can handle such a controversial theme. So artistic, its ability is evident. In this film, Bunuel portrays several abnormal sexual behaviors very truthfully, and these behaviors are indeed real. After processing by Bunuel, not only the original erotic meaning is eliminated, On the contrary, it has some artistic and ornamental qualities.
A woman can give birth to so many thoughts in a stable day, so nature and emptiness are inseparable. Many movies reflect the emptiness and hypocrisy inside the middle class, and this movie is no exception. However, emptiness and hypocrisy seem to be human instincts, not only in the middle class. Therefore, when Bunuel set the role, in addition to the "temporary call girl" played by Catherine, there were other Several "call girls" of. The reasons for these women betraying their bodies are all different, but, in the context of each other, the emptiness of the middle class is infinitely magnified by Deneuve's deduction. European art films have certain inherent laws and forms, such as sharp criticism, strong philosophical meaning, sensitive interpretation, etc. These are only evaluated in specific films. Once they are separated from the film, these are nothing but grandstanding. Gimmick. In the era when European art films were popular, the narration of "Day Beauty" was very smooth, and Buñuel did not make some obscure plot designs to increase the artistry of the film. Therefore, in this movie, whether it is a director or an actor, it can be called first-rate.
The most interesting thing about this film is the director’s performance techniques, the combination of reality and reality, and the content of fantasy can always provoke people’s desires, and make people gradually enter a state where they can’t stop. Suddenly, the camera turns and tells the audience that this is just a spring dream. , It is this spring dream of Wuhen that makes us realize the most secret psychological component of a woman. Similarly, as a woman, I think Deneuve's Seville is very real. A living woman should not be glamorous, but alive. Only a lively woman is a real woman, whether she is fantasizing or longing, in short, a woman should enjoy everything in this world.
