I was surprised that I could still shoot in this way, and I also saw the same realism. What is the gap or difference between FIRST's new directors and ordinary works and Dane? The first article is very good, so I made a note. https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/JsRgy4w3wKMeHvb2Ya0F2A
1. The combination of long shots, natural light, simultaneous sound, open structure, and non-professional actors form a complete and rich aesthetic system.
2. The construction of characters is almost completely completed by a series of actions. The narrative of a psychological nature never exists. The audience can only "guess" the psychological activities of the characters through the actions. Vague and even biased. Due to the opacity of the characters, the body can often create a sense of suspense, which is why their movies can always draw the audience's attention to the greatest extent and give people a high sense of tension.
3. The music and explanatory dialogues that set off the atmosphere are rarely used. Instead, they rely on sound and images to drive and advance the film. Many of the most important plot settings are triggered by a simultaneous sound, which urges the audience to mobilize their The senses awaken the cognition of reality in two ways: "seeing" and "listening".
4. Neo-realist works usually give great sympathy to the main characters, and the audience can also have a high degree of empathy for the characters, so as to achieve the purpose of social criticism. The Darnet brothers subverted this kind of left-wing creators and even realist creators. The relationship between the characters, their protagonists often directly or indirectly participate in "finding money and killing lives", in any sense can not be regarded as innocent, which has also caused them to be controversial among traditional left-wing film critics. Regarding this issue, we can consider from two perspectives. First, the Darnet brothers really don’t think of themselves as left-wing filmmakers. Although their films always seem to be writing about social issues and the low-level people, this kind of attention is not dogmatic and stylized. They hope to show The complexity and extremeness of people in the post-capitalist post-industrial era, rather than simply being squeezed and oppressed, is very different from the British left-wing director Ken Roach. Luc Dane wrote in his diary on May 30, 2005, “Jean-Pierre once said: To say that our film is a film that reflects social issues is like saying "Crime and Punishment." The first is a novel that reflects the living conditions of Russian college students in the 19th century. This may seem a bit self-righteous, but I think this is the best response so far.” It can be seen that they refuse to admit that their works are very directly related to the present, but instead I hope that my film can be understood as a work that transcends the times and reflects the general living conditions of mankind. In other words, although the lens is always very close to the character, the creator’s perspective does not completely overlap with the character. It is this "ethical point" that allows the works of the Danes to get rid of pure politics or consciousness. The color of form brings a certain metaphysical meaning.
5. In this network age full of virtual communication, people cannot and need not communicate face to face. The body is no longer an important factor in inner change. The other is not only forgotten, but also a kind of illusion. It can be the absence of endless violence and understanding. The works of the Darnet brothers are against such a tendency, because for them, when everyone appears in front of you alive, the ideas you have learned, the knowledge you have been exposed to, and the beliefs you have been instilled are lost. The transcendental meaning is replaced by a personal recognition of the other. For those of us Chinese audiences who are accustomed to self-indulging, the significance of watching the Darnet brothers may be that they can at least evoke a kind of "imagination" about the other that is buried in our hearts.
