Nolan, who you admire, the number one director in the universe, Christopher Nolan, is really a good student. The film "Following", six thousand knives, learned the essence of the film, taciturn, shuttle in complex spaces, credulity and manipulation. In addition, I think Jeremy Theobald looks like Robert Mitchum. His uneasy expression belongs to us as well. What Picasso said is true, "good artists plagiarize, great artists plagiarize", isn't that what he said? The film has a very remarkable translation in foreign language, "Hang me up high, and then leave." Jeff Bailey or Malcolm gave a negative answer to this statement. The movie should start from the very center of the story. The attractive ones are people with the past. The attractive part of film noir is that we will follow them before we identify with the role. The first mystery is Joey, and the second is Joey. The mystery is Jeff, and the third mystery is Cathy, but the most mysterious is still the deaf and mute. There are many unpredictable characters, but they do not affect our viewing of their actions. For the film industry, Yanzhen It is indeed a better invention than Martini. Film noirs are Oedipus stories, and fleeing from fate is completely tantamount to encountering fate. You can't completely retreat with the past in complete reconciliation, either stay in the past forever, or accept the harassment of those nightmares, "maybe the world is too small", "maybe the brand is too big".
Because of the Mexican idyllic, Jeff has the tendency to destroy San Francisco. The first half depends on the hormones in the air to maintain my interest, and the second half depends on the smell of blood in the air. Everything that happened in the first half was to prepare for the second half, to meet a sine wave with a huge angular velocity. The end of the first half is gunshots, and the end of the second half will also be gunshots. From the moment he returned to the vortex in the middle of the film, the entropy increased extremely sharply, was framed, found himself framed, informed him to escape, he did not run, was killed, hid the body and induced the truth, found the document, sent the document, and re Caught, assassinated, smashed to death by a fish hook, broke the truth, made a deal, the trader was killed, fled here, prepared a gun, called the police, surrounded by the police, when we were assured that Jeff had not been tricked by Cathy, he But he was killed by the gun directly in the car. Everything was only a few seconds away. Anyone can manipulate anyone, anyone can die, and anyone can die. Originally, neither Anna nor Paul had established a rich image. Fortunately, the answer of the deaf-mute was unexpected and reasonable. Thanks to it delaying the end of this short, flat story, and thanks to the aftermath it created.
Cathy is probably my favorite heroine on the big screen of that era and since watching movies during this period...It is one of the worst. Her existence is the movie itself, short and illusory, savage and elegant, because of its external appearance. Beautiful and more dangerous-am I doing a male gaze in this way? When you enter the movie theater, you think you are like a turtle falling into an urn. The best artists make people aware of the existence of this trap, but you are still behind bars, out of some very primitive desire. Excellent flashback, Hitchcock's words, "A good movie is a combination of several movies under the same theme." The first story is Jeff’s memory, telling the audience that this girl is a big liar, and the second story tries to put you in the same trap again. The creator preliminarily publicizes the danger, and you Whether it’s sweet, survival or destruction, you took the initiative to choose the latter, just because you need to confirm whether the romance you felt in the first half is true or not, it must be. I am actually a little dissatisfied with the handling of her in the second half of the movie, and I hope she can keep more secrets. Of course we can see through, but of course we enjoy everything before being seen through. That dialogue line is very interesting and it accurately reveals Jeff's fate. I forget who Cathy said to-"he should have died", "give him some time".
