Innocent man notes

"Screws are tightening" is famous for the structure of stacked bed frames. It is difficult to shoot like this when adapted into a movie (the Grand Budapest Hotel did it). At the beginning of the film, the female teacher's monologue also created truth and falsehood in a concise way. Difficult atmosphere.

Except for the hint at the beginning that the film is from the subjective perspective of the female teacher, the heroine had a face when he saw the ghost of a male servant for the first time, but the face of the female ghost was vague when he saw the ghost for the first time, because the heroine had never intended Seeing the picture of the male servant in the video also implies that this is the female teacher’s imagination. In the second half of the film, the female protagonist's dress also changed to the same black abstinence dress of the former teacher, and the images of the two gradually overlapped.

Deep focus lens.

With the development of the film, the contrast of the picture increases, and the camera is directly blacked out when reading the comments.

The ambiguous relationship between the female teacher and the boy. The way of expression is both cryptic and explicit, and the two kisses are a magical touch. Anyway, I didn't see the loan or the substitute, and I obviously can't shoot like this now.

    There are not many horror scenes, and the director did not put much effort into the appearance of ghosts, but with precise scheduling and skilled rhythm control, he succeeded in creating a tense sense of suspense. The little boy's performance should also be remembered. The eyes are evil, and it is not inferior to the drama of Deborah Garr. However, the ending treatment is sloppy, which is a big fault.

    Exquisite images, many passages are unforgettable. The plot that is too ambiguous is a bit confusing. Especially the kiss at the end. But it still does not prevent it from being an excellent thriller.

The Innocents quotes

  • Flora: [singing] We lay, my love and I, beneath the weeping willow. But now alone I lie and weep beside the tree. Singing "Oh willow waly" by the tree that weeps with me. Singing "Oh willow waly" till my lover returns to me. We lay, my love and I, beneath the weeping willow. But now alone I lie. Oh willow I die, oh willow I die...

  • Miss Giddens: The children... have they had a governess before?

    The Uncle: Yes, unfortunately. Not that there was anything wrong with Miss Jessel. She was an excellent governess and a most respectable woman. The children quite liked her especially little Flora. Oh, which reminds me: Be careful not to broach that subject to Flora unless of course, she broaches it to you first which I doubt will happen because she was so fond of Miss Jessel and it did come as an appalling shock.

    Miss Giddens: I'm not certain that I understand you, sir.

    The Uncle: She died.
