Since watching "Drifting Bathroom" in 2000, I have watched a lot of Kim Kidd’s movies intermittently, most of which I like very much, and one that I don’t like very much. I like his movie because of the poignant Korean scenery in his eyes. Pure, human nature is extremely persistent. From the beginning of "Drifting Bathroom", I felt that the picture was cool but had a very clean aesthetic. Later, "Spring Goes Back and Spring Comes Back" can be seen as an environmentally friendly promotional film. Let people forget the mundane name and the reins, and give birth to the heart of the old mountain forest. Regardless of whether they have undergone plastic surgery, Korean actresses have grown up in line with the landscape. They look very beautiful. If they don’t put on makeup and talk, they will be so beautiful that they will not eat the fireworks. The beauty and beauty are seamlessly matched, which also constitutes the keynote of Kim Kidd’s film. He was a painter and traveled (or wandering, because he mainly sells paintings for a living) European countries. In his eyes, he sees South Korea. His mountains and rivers are all elegant ink paintings, especially water. He has made many movies about water, and he has a passion for the sea and the lake.
There is very little dialogue in his movies. Sometimes there are no more than 10 lines of dialogue in a movie. I need to explain that I don’t like the excitement. I also like Zhou Xingchi’s screaming movies, Feng Xiaogang, and Wang Shuo’s "talking" movies and TV series (even this year’s start from the beginning) I don’t find it particularly annoying at the end of "Dream into Reality"), but dialogue is not the only language of the movie. Otherwise, you can just read the book and listen to the radio. It takes more advanced acting and directing skills to use expressions, scenery, and music to achieve your goals. , I rarely see wonderfully filmed "boring films" (boring here, specifically refers to the dialogue Shaoer). Everyone generally thinks that art films are boring films. This is a superficial idea, and some movies are boring well. , Those are called art films, and some are boring, they are called pseudo-art films-in a fashionable term: pretend to be B. I have watched a lot of movies that pretend to be B over the years, and I have cultivated to have a golden eye. No matter where I start, I basically know whether it is a master making an art film or a stupid B pretending to be B in five minutes. Kim Kidd always directs and writes the script by himself. I think his script must be a blank piece of paper. Therefore, every time I watch his movie, I feel itchy. I have to write his script in words.
The characters express their feelings with eyes and body movements without speaking. Although they are adventurous, they leave endless imagination space for the audience. Everyone has a different interpretation of the musical sentiment that runs through one eye and one movement, even if it is the same. Personally, maybe it’s the same thing that I thought before. After watching it, it’s another meaning to contact the whole movie and think about it. The highest level of this method is not to give an answer. For example, no one has watched "Instinct" for so many years. To be able to figure out whether Sharon Stone's ice cone will be pierced in the end, this kind of technique can be seen everywhere in Kim Kidd's movies.
I'm willing to put a label "philosophical film" on Kim Kidd's films. Each of his films is rigid philosophy and humanity, not a bit wordy. Which director does not want his film to be good-looking, but also has more philosophical significance. ? For this reason, director Zhang Yimou even asked Tony Leung GG to use a broom to draw two shining big characters on the sand---"Tian Xia", thinking that this would raise a bad film to the philosophical height of "world peace". In fact, Chen Kaige did not hesitate to impose the view of "one-to-the-point" on Cheng Dieyi in "Farewell My Concubine", thinking that in this way, he could gain an inch and draw the great sentiment of devotion to art from a movie. This is superfluous. I don't understand!
Kim Kidd’s film goes to an extreme, completely talking about philosophy and humanity, completely out of real life. Like a philosopher and psychologist, he uses film language to set up some specific scenes: such as a temple far away from the mortal. ("Spring Goes, Spring Comes"), a lone boat drifting on the sea ("Bow", "Drifting Bathroom"), and then expand my imagination in these environments to explore the human nature, and finally, show the problem is not Give the answer and leave the power of judgment to every audience in the form of an open ending. Or he will strip away all irrelevant daily life, show the essential things in virtual stories ("Empty Room", "Mud Lovers"), and then give his own thoughts, even though this kind of thought sometimes breaks me ( "Mud Lovers") But I can't say anything, I can't make the director just reunite in the filming based on my hope for the understanding of who has who is human.
Originally complicated things came to him and were immediately stripped of simplicity, so his movies are not long, and the scenes and props are also very simple, I guess such movies are very cost-effective, but it is good for the director and the actors. The skill requirements are also very high. At the beginning of the year, I learned that when the investment in "Wuji" exceeded 100 million, I really couldn't understand it. I think such a director can just pull it out and shoot it. Maybe it’s a poor life. I think even if he is a good movie, he can’t spend so much money. How many hope primary schools can be built with more than 100 million yuan? Even if hope primary schools are not built, the lottery tickets can be sold. Some people’s lives. We haven't burned the package to that level, isn't it good to just watch the pirated blockbuster movies in the United States? Let's introduce it if we don't let piracy, it won't cost a lot of money, let them burn money, we enjoy it, what a good thing. If you have to compete, making a few cheap and awesome movies will make them mad at you? At this point, South Korea is doing very well. It refuses to watch foreign films. It spends money to make its own blockbusters and sells it for themselves. They make good films, or like Kim Kidd, spend a small amount of money to make big films. , As good as winning prizes.
However, Kim Ki-de has been in trouble recently. First, he bombarded the Korean blockbuster "Monster" on a TV show, saying it was cultural rubbish, which caused national anger. The patriotism of Koreans is higher than the patriotic youth here, so it is second. Tianjin Kidd had to issue a written apology. In the letter of apology, he said, "I think I exaggerated the dark side of Korean society, and imposed this view on the audience, which made the audience feel unhappy. This made me understand a fact, that is I itself is a serious disturbance of consciousness, and even difficult to live in South Korea. "
I think he did not have consciousness, but not exaggerated description of Korea's dark side, but in fact the whole human dark side he describes
Finally, I also There is a feeling that his movies are not suitable for "all music", it is best to watch it alone in the dead of night.
His new film "Time" has finished filming, I am looking forward to it
